Using the force displacement diagram shown above. Calculate the work done
Attached Figure / Diagram
A
2000J
B
1000J
C
20J
D
5J
Verified Correct Answer: B.
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
Work done = area under the triangle
Work done = \(\frac{1}{2}\) x base x height = 0.5 x 20 x 100 = 1000J
Therefore, the work done, as calculated from the force-displacement diagram, is 1000J
