In which situation is the maximum possible work done?

Physics
1 answer:
ExtremeBDS [4]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Answer is A.

Explanation:

Remember the equation for work:

W = F d cos θ

Math explanation: When θ = 0, cos θ = 1, so Fd is a maximum. For any other value of θ up to 90 degrees, cos θ < 1 so Fd will be smaller. For θ = 180, you're pushing away from the direction of displacement so you're actually doing negative work.

Intuitive explanation: you have the most success pushing an object when you apply the force directly against it compared to if the force was directed at an angle.

A lemon with mass 0.3 kg falls out of a tree from a height of 1.8 m. How much mechanical energy does the lemon have just before
Zina [86]
Mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position. It can either be kinetics or potential. In this problem you know it starting position so you can calculate it's potential energy (PE):

<span>PE=mass∗gravity∗height=0.3kg∗9.8m/s2∗1.8m=?

</span>The answer will typically be given in joules:

1J=kg∗m2s2 Could be wrong...  But I believe it is 5.3...? as a final product.

If a board with an area of 3m2 has a 12 N force exerted on it, what is the pressure on the board?
Cerrena [4.2K]
4 N/cm^2 is the answer. the way you get this is the formula for pressure is P=F/A. So you would plug in the numbers which would make the equation P=12/3 which you know equals 4. The units for pressure is N/cm^2 or N/m^2

I hope this helps
