Answer:

The work done and power are 60000 Pounds-feet and 3000 Pounds-feet/sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force F = 1500 pounds

Distance d = 40 feet

Time t = 40 sec

Work done :

The work done is the product of the force and distance.

The work done is defined as,

W = F \times d

Where, W = work

F = force

d = distance

Put the value into the formula of work

W= 1500\times40

W = 60000\ Pounds-feet

Power:

The power is equal to the work done divided by time.

The power is defined as,

P = \dfrac{W}{t}

Where, P = power

W = work

t = time

Put the value into the formula of power

P = \dfrac{60000}{20}

P=3000\ Pounds-feet/s

Hence, The work done and power are 60000 Pounds-feet and 3000 Pounds-feet/sec.

Work = f x s = 1500 x 40
power = w/t = (1500 x 40) / 20

The vertical weight carried by the builder at the rear end is F = 308.1 N

<h3>Calculations and Parameters</h3>

Given that:

The weight is carried up along the plane in rotational equilibrium condition

The torque equilibrium condition can be used to solve

We can note that the torque due to the force of the rear person about the position of the front person = Torque due to the weight of the block about the position of the front person

This would lead to:

F(W*cosθ) = mgsinθ(L/2) + mgcosθ(W/2)

F(1cos20)= 197/2(3.10sin20 + 2 cos 20)

Fcos20= 289.55

F= 308.1N

Compare and contrast the terms vaporizing and condensation.
JulsSmile [24]
The terms are both about changing states. Vaporizing is when you heat something up into a vapor; condensation is when you lower a vapors temperature to make it become a liquid state.
