As we discussed in Concept

Net work done by all the forces give the change in kinetic energy -

W=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}-\frac{1}{2}mv{_{0}}^{2}

W= k_{f}-k_{i}

- wherein

m=mass \: of\: the\: body

v_{0}= initial\: velocity

v= final\: velocity

 

 

 W=k_{f}-k_{i}

=> k_{f}=W+k_{i}

k_{f}=\int_{x_{1}}^{x_{2}}fxdx+\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

=>\int_{30}^{20}-0.1\times dx+\frac{1}{2} 10\times 10^{2}

=-0.1\left [ \frac{x^{2}}{2} \right ]^{30}_{20}+500

=-0.50\left [ 30^{2}-20^{2} \right ]+500

=-0.05\left [ 900-400 \right ]+500

k_{f}=-25+500=475J
