(a) The work done by the force applied by the tractor is 79,968.47 J.

(b) The work done by the frictional force on the tractor is 55,977.93 J.

<h3>Work done by the applied force</h3>

The work done by the force applied by the tractor is calculated as follows;

W = Fd cosθ

W = (5000 x 20) x cos(36.9)

W = 79,968.47 J

<h3>Work done by frictional force</h3>

W = Ffd cosθ

W = (3500 x 20) x cos(36.9)

W = 55,977.93 J

<h3>Net work done by all the forces on the tractor</h3>

W(net) = work done by applied force - work done by friction force

W(net) = 79,968.47 J - 55,977.93 J

W(net) = 23,990.54 J

If a ball is given an initial speed of 15 m/s on a horizontal, frictionless surface, how fast will the ball be rolling in 5 seco

iris [78.8K]

The surface is frictionless, so there is no frictional force acting on the ball. There are no other forces acting on the ball in the horizontal direction, so it's a uniform motion with constant speed. Therefore, the velocity of the ball will remain the same for the entire duration of the motion, and so after 5 seconds the velocity is still 15 m/s.

A student claims "everything falls at the same acceleration rate on the Moon, where there is no air or friction," how would you

Alexeev081 [22]

Now let’s say you’re on the Moon. If you were to drop a hammer and a feather from the same height, which would hit the ground first?

Trick Question! On the moon both objects would hit the ground at the same time. On Earth, the hammer lands first.

So yeah, the student is right. Galileo gave us this theory long ago.
