Question

A man pushing a crate of mass

Answer 1

(a) The magnitude and direction of the net force on the crate while it is on the rough surface is 36.46 N, opposite as the motion of the crate.

(b) The net work done on the crate while it is on the rough surface is 23.7 J.

(c) The speed of the crate when it reaches the end of the rough surface is 0.45 m/s.

Magnitude of net force on the crate

F(net) = F - μFf

F(net) = 280 - 0.351(92 x 9.8)

F(net) = -36.46 N

Net work done on the crate

W = F(net) x L

W = -36.46 x 0.65

W = - 23.7 J

Acceleration of the crate

a = F(net)/m

a = -36.46/92

a = - 0.396 m/s²

Speed of the crate

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0.845² + 2(-0.396)(0.65)

v² = 0.199

v = √0.199

v = 0.45 m/s

Thus, the magnitude and direction of the net force on the crate while it is on the rough surface is 36.46 N, opposite as the motion of the crate.

The net work done on the crate while it is on the rough surface is 23.7 J.

The speed of the crate when it reaches the end of the rough surface is 0.45 m/s.
