JEE Main 2026 — 4 April, Morning Shift — Question 19

A 1 kg block is subjected to two simultaneous forces (2i^+3j^+4k^)(2\hat{i}+3\hat{j}+4\hat{k}) N and (3i^−j^−2k^)(3\hat{i}-\hat{j}-2\hat{k}) N and is moved a distance of 25 m along (3i^−4j^)(3\hat{i}-4\hat{j}) direction. The work done in this process is ______ J.

Answer: 35

Numerical answer — enter this value.

Step-by-step solution

Net force = 5i^+2j^+2k^5\hat{i}+2\hat{j}+2\hat{k} N. Displacement = 75i^−100j^75\hat{i}-100\hat{j} m (since 25 m along 3i-4j gives components 75i-100j). Work = 5×75 + 2×(-100) + 2×0 = 375 -200 = 175? Wait recalc: Displacement vector = 25 * (3i-4j)/5 = 15i -20j. Then work = F·S = (5)(15) + (2)(-20) + (2)(0)=75-40=35 J. Answer 35
