A particle is moved along a path as shown in figure, in presence of a force where and are in meter and The work done on the particle by this force will be ____ Joule.

- A 0.25
- B 0.5
- C 0.1
- D 0.75
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) 0.75
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Now, total work done in whole path is given by,
\(W=W_{A B}+W_{B C}+W_{C D}+W_{D E}+W_{E F}+\)\(W_{F A}\)
\(A \rightarrow B, y=1, d y=0, W_{A \rightarrow B}=\int \alpha y d x=\alpha \cdot\) \(1 \int_0^1 d x=\alpha\)
\(B \rightarrow C, x=1, d x=0, W_{B \rightarrow C}=2 \alpha \cdot 1 \int_1^{0.5}\) \(d y=-2 \alpha(0.5)=-\alpha\)
\(C \rightarrow D, y=0.5, d y=0, W_{C \rightarrow D}=\int_1^{0.5} \alpha y d x\)\(=\alpha \cdot \frac{1}{2} \int_1^{0.5} d x=-\frac{\alpha}{4}\)
\(D \rightarrow E, x=0.5, d x=0, W_{D \rightarrow E}=2 \alpha \int x d y=\)\(2 \alpha \cdot \frac{1}{2} \int_1^{0.5} d y=-\frac{\alpha}{2}\)
\(E \rightarrow F, y=0, d y=0, W_{E F}=0\)
\(F \rightarrow A, x=0, d x=0, W_{E \rightarrow A}=0\)
\(\therefore W=\alpha-\alpha-\frac{\alpha}{4}-\frac{\alpha}{2}=-\frac{3 \alpha}{4}\)
Given \(\alpha=-1 \Rightarrow W=+\frac{3}{4} J=0.75 J\)

- A particle of mass \(m\) is under the influence of the gravitational field of a body of mass \(M(\gg m)\). The particle is moving in a circular orbit of radius \(r_0\) with time period \(T_0\) around the mass \(M\). Then, the particle is subjected to an additional central force, corresponding to the potential energy \(V_{\mathrm{c}}(r)=m \alpha / r^3\), where \(\alpha\) is a positive constant of suitable dimensions and \(r\) is the distance from the center of the orbit.

Chemical reactions involve interaction of atoms and molecules. A large number of atoms/molecules (approximately \(6.023 \times 10^{23}\) ) are present in a few grams of any chemical compound varying with their atomic/molecular masses. To handle such large numbers conveniently, the mole concept was introduced. This concept has implications in diverse areas such as analytical chemistry, biochemistry, electrochemistry and radiochemistry. The following example illustrates a typical case, involving chemical/electrochemical reaction, which requires a clear understanding of the mole concept.
