How do I figure work done using W=Fd when I have a mass of 61.09kg, weight of 599.79N, d=153cm, and t=4.52s?

You have the correct formula. Work = F d .
You use it by gathering up 'F' and 'd' and throwing away everything else.

F = 599.79 N
d = 153 cm

That's all you need to calculate 'W' with your formula. Just because they
also gave you the mass and the time doesn't mean you MUST use them.

My guess is that there are more parts to this problem where you may need
the mass and the time. For example, if they ask you for the power, then
you'll need to divide the work by the time.

Squids and octopuses propel themselves by expelling water. They do this by keeping water in a cavity and then suddenly contracti

Alex

Answer:

A) The speed of the water must be 8.30 m/s.

B) Total kinetic energy created by this maneuver is 70.12 Joules.

Explanation:

A) Mass of squid with water = 6.50 kg

Mass of water in squid cavuty = 1.55 kg

Mass of squid = $m_1=6.50 kg- 1.55 kg=4.95 kg$
