Answer:
F = 479.21 N
Explanation:
given,
initial velocity = 0 m/s
final velocity = 16.7 m/s
time taken = 20.7 s
combined mass of the boat and trailer = 594 kg
tension in the hitch = ?
using equation of motion
v = u + a t
16.7 = 0 + a × 20.7
a = 0.807 m/s²
Force = mass × acceleration
F = 594 × 0.807
F = 479.21 N
Hence, the tension in the hitch that connects the trailer to the car is F = 479.21 N
The correct answer is:
Work is negative, the environment did work on the object, and the energy of the system decreases.
In fact, the work-energy theorem states that the work done by the system is equal to its variation of kinetic energy:

In this problem, the variation of kinetic energy
is negative (because the final velocity is less than the initial velocity), so the work is negative, and this means that the environment did work on the object, and its energy decreased.
Answer:
Machine - A device consisting of fixed and moving parts that modifies mechanical energy and transmits it in a more useful form.
Mechanical advantage - Mechanical advantage is a measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system.
Inclined Plane - A plane set at an angle to the horizontal, especially a simple machine used to raise or lower a load by rolling or sliding.
Wedge - A piece of material, such as metal or wood, thick at one edge and tapered to a thin edge at the other for insertion in a narrow crevice, used for splitting, tightening, securing, or levering.
Screw - A cylindrical rod incised with one or more helical or advancing spiral threads, as a lead screw or worm screw.
Lever - A simple machine consisting of a rigid bar pivoted on a fixed point and used to transmit force, as in raising or moving a weight at one end by pushing down on the other.
The headlamp's concave mirror is open on one end, and the light bulb's filament is placed at or near the focus. (Sorry if this is Wrong)
The rocket engine works on the basic principle proposed by Newton which is Newton’s Third Law.
