Sagot :
By the kinetic energy theorem we know that:
[tex]W=\Delta K[/tex]where W is the work done by the force and delta K is the change in kinetic energy.
In the original scenario the work done by the force is:
[tex]W=Fd=(2)(2)=4[/tex]Which means that the object gained 4 J in kinetic energy.
Now we need to determine in which scenario given the work done is the same, from the options we notice that in option B we apply the same force for the same distance, which means that the work will be the same and hence the object will gain the same kinetic energy (note that this does not mean that the final velocity will be the same, just that the object will gain the same amount of kinetic energy). In all the other cases we can't conclude the same.
Therefore, the answer is option B.
