The relation between the displacement X of an object produced by the application of the variable force F is represented by a graph shown in the figure. If the object undergoes a displacement from 
to 
the work done will be approximately equal to
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
Work done = Area under curve and displacement axis
= Area of trapezium
= 
× (sum of two parallel lines) × distance between them
= 
= 
= 14 J
As the area actually is not trapezium so work done will be more than 14 J i.e. approximately 16 J
