"on a snowy day, max (mass = 15 kg) pulls his little sister maya in a sled (combined mass = 20 kg) through the slippery snow. wh

en max pulls on the sled with 12 n of force, directed at an angle of 15° above the ground, how much work does max do on the sled as he pulls his sister 25 m in the snow?"

Refer to the diagram shown below.

The angle θ = 15° relative to the direction of motion.
Therefore the force acting in the direction of motion is
(12 N) cos(15°) = 11.59 N

By definition,
Work = Force x Distance.
Therefore work done in moving the sled by 25 m is
Work = (11.59 N)*(25 m) = 289.8 J

Answer: 289.8 J

Un resorte se alarga 5 cm bajo la acción de una fuerza de 39,2 N. ¿Cuál es la constante del resorte? Si ahora la fuerza es 68,6
Lorico [155]

Answer:

k=784 N/m

\Delta x=8,8 cm

Explanation:

Usando la ley de Hook tenemos:

F=k\Delta x

Solving it for k we have:

k=\frac{F}{\Delta x}

k=\frac{39,2}{0,05}

k=784 N/m

Usando la misma ecuación y sabiendo k tenemos:

\Delta x=\frac{F}{k}

\Delta x=\frac{68,6}{784}

\Delta x=8,8 cm

Espero esto te ayude!
