A force of 6N acts horizontally on a stationary mass of 2kg for 4s. The kinetic energy gained by the mass is _________

  • A.
    366j
  • B.
    240j
  • C.
    144j
  • D.
    90j
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

F = 6N, m = 2kg, t = 4s, u = 0 (stationary or at rest)

 

K.E = 1


2

mv(^2)

 

F = mv


t

from rest

K.E = 1


2

m( Ft


m

)(^2) = 1

× 2 x ((frac{6 times 4}{2})^2 = 12^2 = 144J)
