Chapter 11: Q30P (page 500)
Assuming you exclude the runaway solution in Prob. 11.19, calculate
(a) The work done by the external force,
(b) The final kinetic energy (assume the initial kinetic energy was zero),
(c) The total energy radiated.
Check that energy is conserved in this process.
Short Answer
(a) The work done by an external force is .
(b) The final kinetic energy is .
(c) The total energy radiated is .
