$A$ chain of mass $4 \ kg$ and length $2 \ m$ is hanging such that one-fourth of its length is hanging over the edge of a table. The work done to pull the hanging part onto the table is . . . . . . $J$. (Take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

If a force of constant magnitude acts in a direction perpendicular to the motion of a particle,then its

$A$ particle moves from position $\vec{r_1} = 3\,\hat{i} + 2\,\hat{j} - 6\,\hat{k}$ to position $\vec{r_2} = 14\,\hat{i} + 13\,\hat{j} + 9\,\hat{k}$ under the influence of a force $\vec{F} = 4\,\hat{i} + \hat{j} + 3\,\hat{k}$. Find the work done in $J$.

View Solution

Consider a particle on which constant forces $F_{1}=\hat{i}+2 \hat{j}+3 \hat{k} \text{ N}$ and $F_{2}=4 \hat{i}-5 \hat{j}-2 \hat{k} \text{ N}$ act together, resulting in a displacement from position $r_{1}=20 \hat{i}+15 \hat{j} \text{ cm}$ to $r_{2}=7 \hat{k} \text{ cm}$. The total work done on the particle is:

$A$ force of magnitude $50\, N$ acting along $\hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k}$ displaces a point mass from $(5, 9, 7)$ to $(4, 8, 6)$. The work done by this force during this displacement is:
