The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the total work done by all forces during the displacement of a particle from \( x = 0 \) to \( x = d \) when its velocity varies according to the equation \( v = a\sqrt{x} \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Values**: - Mass of the particle: \( m \) - Velocity as a function of distance: \( v = a\sqrt{x} \), where \( a \) is a constant. 2. **Calculate Initial Velocity**: - At \( x = 0 \): \[ v_i = a\sqrt{0} = 0 \] - Therefore, the initial velocity \( v_i = 0 \). 3. **Calculate Final Velocity**: - At \( x = d \): \[ v_f = a\sqrt{d} \] - Therefore, the final velocity \( v_f = a\sqrt{d} \). 4. **Use the Work-Energy Theorem**: - According to the work-energy theorem, the total work done \( W \) is equal to the change in kinetic energy (\( \Delta KE \)): \[ W = KE_f - KE_i \] 5. **Calculate Initial and Final Kinetic Energy**: - Initial Kinetic Energy (\( KE_i \)): \[ KE_i = \frac{1}{2} m v_i^2 = \frac{1}{2} m (0)^2 = 0 \] - Final Kinetic Energy (\( KE_f \)): \[ KE_f = \frac{1}{2} m v_f^2 = \frac{1}{2} m (a\sqrt{d})^2 = \frac{1}{2} m a^2 d \] 6. **Calculate Total Work Done**: - Substitute the values of \( KE_f \) and \( KE_i \) into the work-energy theorem: \[ W = KE_f - KE_i = \frac{1}{2} m a^2 d - 0 = \frac{1}{2} m a^2 d \] ### Final Answer: The total work done by all the forces during the displacement from \( x = 0 \) to \( x = d \) is: \[ W = \frac{1}{2} m a^2 d \]
