Question

A 45 g bug is hovering in the air. A gust of wind

Answer 1

The work-done by the wind as the bug undergoes the displacement is 80 J.

The given parameters;

• Mass of the bug, m = 45 g
• Force exerted, F = (4.0 î – 6.0j) x 10⁻² N
• Displacement of the bug, r = (8.0î - 8.0j) m

The work-done by the wind as the bug undergoes the displacement is obtained by finding the dot product of the force and the displacement;

Work done = F. r

Work done = (4.0 î – 6.0j) x 10⁻² . (8.0î - 8.0j)

Work done = (32i²) + (48j²)

Work done = 32(1) + 48(1)

Work done = 80 J.

Thus, the work-done by the wind as the bug undergoes the displacement is 80 J.
