A box is being dragged with a horizontal force of 65 N for 12 meters. If there is a force of friction acting on it
asambeis [7]

Answer:

A. 780 J

B. 120 J

C. 660 J

Explanation:

From the question given above the following data were obtained:

Dragging force (Fₔ) = 65 N

Distance (s) = 12 m

Force of friction (Fբ) = 10 N

A. Determination of the work done by the dragging force.

Dragging force (Fₔ) = 65 N

Distance (s) = 12 m

Workdone (Wd) by dragging force =?

Wd = Fₔ × s

Wd = 65 × 12

Wd = 780 J

Therefore, the work done by the dragging force is 780 J

B. Determination of the work done by friction.

Distance (s) = 12 m

Force of friction (Fբ) = 10 N

Workdone (Wd) by friction =?

Wd = Fբ × s

Wd = 10 × 12

Wd = 120 J

Therefore, the work done by friction is 120 J

C. Determination of the net work done on the box.

Dragging force (Fₔ) = 65 N

Distance (s) = 12 m

Force of friction (Fբ) = 10 N

Net work done (Wd) =?

Next, we shall determine the net force acting on the box. This can be obtained as follow:

Dragging force (Fₔ) = 65 N

Force of friction (Fբ) = 10 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = Fₔ – Fբ

Fₙ = 65 – 10

Fₙ = 55 N

Thus, the net force acting on the box is 55 N

Finally, we shall determine the net work done on the box as follow:

Distance (s) = 12 m

Net force (Fₙ) = 55 N

Net work done (Wd) =?

Wd = Fₙ × s

Wd = 55 × 12

Wd = 660 J

Therefore, the net work done on the box is 660 J

The initial potential energy of the wagon containing gold boxes will enable

it roll down the hill when cut loose.

The Lone Ranger and Tonto have approximately <u>5.1 seconds</u>.

Reasons:

Mass wagon and gold = 166 kg

Location of the wagon = 77 meters up the hill

Slope of the hill = 8°

Location of the rangers = 41 meters from the canyon

Mass of Lone Ranger, m₁ = 65 kg

Mass of Tonto m₂ = 66 kg

Solution;

Height of the wagon above the level ground, h = 77 m × sin(8°) ≈ 10.72 m

Potential energy = m·g·h

Where;

g = Acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

Potential energy of wagon, P.E. ≈ 166 × 9.81 × 10.72 = 17457.0912

Potential energy of wagon, P.E. ≈ 17457.0912 J

By energy conservation, P.E. = K.E.

K.E. = \mathbf{\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot m \cdot v^2}

Where;

v = The velocity of the wagon a the bottom of the cliff

Therefore;

\dfrac{1}{2} \times 166 \times v^2 = 17457.0912

v = \sqrt{\dfrac{17457.0912}{\dfrac{1}{2} \times 166} } \approx 14.5

Velocity of the wagon, v ≈ 14.5 m/s

Momentum = Mass, m × Velocity, v

Initial momentum of wagon = m·v

Final momentum of wagon and ranger = (m + m₁ + m₂)·v'

By conservation of momentum, we have;

m·v = (m + m₁ + m₂)·v'

\therefore v' = \mathbf{ \dfrac{m \cdot v}{(m + m_1 + m_2)  }}

Which gives;

\therefore v' = \dfrac{166 \times 14.5}{(166 + 65 + 66)  } \approx 8.1

The velocity of the wagon after the Ranger and Tonto drop in, v' ≈ 8.1 m/s

Time = \dfrac{Distance}{Velocity}

\mathrm{The \ time \ the\ Lone \  Ranger \  and  \ Tonto \  have,  \ t} = \dfrac{41 \, m}{8.1 \, m/s} \approx 5.1 \, s

The Lone Range and Tonto have approximately <u>5.1 seconds</u> to grab the

gold and jump out of the wagon before the wagon heads over the cliff.
