WAEC - Physics (2021 - No. 36)

A force of 10 N, acting continuously, increases the kinetic energy of an object from 20.J to 60 J. Find the distance moved by the object. 
200m 
40m 
4m 
 400m

Explanation

according to the work-energy theorem; Workdone = change in kinetic energy.

W = ∆ K.E

force x distance = \(K.E_2 - K.E_2\)

10 x s = 60 - 20 

s = \(\frac{40}{10}\) = 4m.
