Question

A body of mass m is moving with a uniform velocity u. A force is applied on the body due to which its velocity increases from u to v. How much work is being done by the force?

KnowledgeBoat · Accepted Answer

Mass = m Change in velocity from u to v, so acceleration acts (a) Force = f Work done by the force = force × displacement From equation of motion we know, Substituting it in the formula for work done:
