The force on a particle is directed along an x axis and given by F = F0(x/x0 - 1) where x is in meters and F is in Newtons. If F0 = 1.5 N and x0 = 4.5 m, find the work done by the force in moving the particle from x = 0 to x = 2x0 m.

The work done is 28.9 j

Explanation:

The work is defined as a force doing a movement, and it can be calculated as W = F*d

The force is:

F = 1.5N*(x/(4.5m - 1m)) = (1.5)N*x/3.5m

the distance that d = 2x0 = 2*4.5m = 9m

But the force changes in function of x, so we must do a integration:

Where i used d as the integral of dx betwen 0m and 9m, so the only thing inside the integral is the equation for the force.

this integral is equal to:

W = (2.5N*x^2)/(2*3.5m) valued between x = 0m and x = 9m

W = (2.5*9^2)/7 J = 2.5*81/7 J = 28.9J

duh.

explanation:

physics means: "the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy. the subject matter of physics, distinguished from that of chemistry and biology, includes mechanics, heat, light and other radiation, sound, electricity, magnetism, and the structure of atoms."
