A body of mass 2 kg is moving along x-direction such that its displacement as function of time is given by x(t)=αt2+βt+γx(t) = \alpha t^2 + \beta t + \gamma, where α=1 m/s2\alpha = 1\ \mathrm{m/s^2}, β=1\beta = 1 m/s and γ=1\gamma = 1m. The work done on the body during the time interval t=2t = 2 s to t=3t = 3 s, is J.

We corrected a printing error in the original paper

Source printed “x(t)=αt2+βt+γ mx(t) = \alpha t^2 + \beta t + \gamma\,\mathrm{m}” (unit m doubled on γ=1\gamma = 1 m).
