875 Joule –250 joule
625 joule. 625 joule,
Change in kinetic energy of the body is equal to the work done by the net force in 10 second. This is in accordance with work-energy theorem.
Sol.

F – f = ma ⇒ a =
=
= 2.5 m/s 2
S =
at 2 =
× 2.5 × 100 = 125 m
W F = F × s = 7 × 125 = 875 J.
W f = –0.1 × 2 × 10 × 125 J = – 250 J
W Total = (875 – 250) = 625 J
K = W total = 625 J.
