A 128.0-N carton is pulled up a frictionless baggage ramp inclined at 30.0∘above the horizontal by a rope exerting a 72.0-N pull
parallel to the ramp’s surface. If the carton travels 5.20 m along the surface of the ramp, calculate the work done on it by (a) the rope, (b) gravity, (c) the normal force of the ramp. (d) What is the net work done on the carton? (e) Suppose that the rope is angled at 50.0∘above the horizontal, instead of being parallel to the ramp’s surface.

1 answer:
Answer:
(A) 374.4 J
(B) -332.8 J
(C) 0 J
(D) 41.6 J
(E) 351.8 J
Explanation:
weight of carton (w) = 128 N
angle of inclination (θ) = 30 degrees
force (f) = 72 N
distance (s) = 5.2 m
(A) calculate the work done by the rope
- work done = force x distance x cos θ
- since the rope is parallel to the ramp the angle between the rope and
the ramp θ will be 0
work done = 72 x 5.2 x cos 0
work done by the rope = 374.4 J
(B) calculate the work done by gravity
- the work done by gravity = weight of carton x distance x cos θ
- The weight of the carton = force exerted by the mass of the carton = m x g
- the angle between the force exerted by the weight of the carton and the ramp is 120 degrees.
work done by gravity = 128 x 5.2 x cos 120
work done by gravity = -332.8 J
(C) find the work done by the normal force acting on the ramp
- work done by the normal force = force x distance x cos θ
- the angle between the normal force and the ramp is 90 degrees
work done by the normal force = Fn x distance x cos θ
work done by the normal force = Fn x 5.2 x cos 90
work done by the normal force = Fn x 5.2 x 0
work done by the normal force = 0 J
(D) what is the net work done ?
- The net work done is the addition of the work done by the rope, gravitational force and the normal force
net work done = 374.4 - 332.8 + 0 = 41.6 J
(E) what is the work done by the rope when it is inclined at 50 degrees to the horizontal
- work done by the rope= force x distance x cos θ
- the angle of inclination will be 50 - 30 = 20 degrees, this is because the ramp is inclined at 30 degrees to the horizontal and the rope is inclined at 50 degrees to the horizontal and it is the angle of inclination of the rope with respect to the ramp we require to get the work done by the rope in pulling the carton on the ramp
work done = 72 x 5.2 x cos 20
work done = 351.8 J

The work done by a force acting an object is given by:
where :
F is the magnitude of the force
d is the displacement
is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement
When the force is applied perpendicular to the direction of motion,
Therefore, the work done is:
4)
The kinetic energy of a body is given by
where
m is the mass of the body
v is its speed
For the girl in this problem, we have
m = 40 kg
v = 3 m/s
Therefore her kinetic energy is
5)
The potential energy of an object is given by
where
m is the mass
is the acceleration of gravity
h is the heigth of the object relative to the ground
For the ball in this problem,
m = 0.4 kg
h = 30 m
So, the potential energy is
6)
A conservative field is a field for which the work done by the field on an object does not depend on the path taken, but only on the initial and final position of the object.
Gravitational and electric fields are examples of conservative fields. In fact:
- When an object is pulled down by gravity (free fall), the work done by the gravitational field only depends on the change in height
between the two points, not on the path taken during the fall
- When an electric charge is pushed by the electric field, the work done by the field depends only on the initial and final position of the charge in the field
For any conservative field, it is possible to define a "potential" function, which represents the energy per unit mass/charge, and depends only on the position of the object.

- Non-renewable energy sources are sources of energy whose rate of consumption is faster than the rate at which they are re-created. Examples of non-renewable sources are coal, oil, natural gas. These energy sources are consumed at a fast rate, while they take million of years to regenerate, so at the current rate they will eventually run out.
- Renewable energy sources are sources of energy that replenish at faster rate than the rate at which it is consumed. Examples of renewable sources are solar energy, wind, hydroelectric power.
Therefore, the example of non-renewable energy in this case is
C. Coal

For an object pushed by a force F and moving at a constant velocity v, the power expended is given by
where F is the force and v is the velocity.
for the rocket in this problem, we have:
F = 10 N is the force propelling the rocket
v = 3000 m/s is its velocity
Substituting into the equation, we find the power expended:

The efficiency of a machine is given by
where
is the energy in input to the machine
is the useful work in output from the machine
For a real machine, the useful work in output is always lower than the energy input, because part of the energy is "wasted" and converted into thermal energy due to the presence of internal frictions. However, for an ideal machine, all the input energy is converted into useful work, so
And therefore the efficiency is
which means 100%.

The velocity ratio of a block and tackle system is the ratio between the distance moved by the effort and the distance moved by the load.
In a block and tackle system, the velocity ratio is also equal to the number of pulleys in the system.
For the system in the problem, there are 5 pulleys: therefore, this means that when the effort moves 5 metres, the load moves 1 metres, therefore the velocity ratio is
