The diagram below illustrates the force-displacement of a body. Calculate the work done during the first 20m of motion.

  • A. 1000J
  • B. 825JCorrect
  • C. 750J
  • D. 500J

Explanation

Work done = area under the force-distance graph = area of trapezium + area of rectangle = ½(15+50)(20-10) + 50×10 = 325 + 500 = 825J.
