The correct option is A) work.

Work is said to be done by a force when a force is exerted on an object and the the object on which the force is exerted moves in the direction of the force.

The amount of work done is given by the product of the force and the displacement made by the object.

Option (B) is incorrect, since Watt is the unit of power.

Option (C) is wrong, since joule is the unit of work or energy.

Option (D) is wrong, since power is the rate at which work is done.

A crate which has a mass of m1 = 125kg is sitting on an icy surface. A rope is attached to the crate and held at angle theta 28.
devlian [24]

Answer:

μ = 0.109

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the crate.  There are four forces:

Weight force mg pulling down.

Normal force N pushing up.

Applied force P pulling at θ above the horizontal.

Friction force Nμ pushing to the left.

Sum of the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N + P sin θ − mg = 0

N = mg − P sin θ

Sum of the forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

P cos θ − Nμ = ma

P cos θ − ma = Nμ

μ = (P cos θ − ma) / N

μ = (P cos θ − ma) / (mg − P sin θ)

Given:

P = 585 N

θ = 28.0°

m = 125 kg

a = 3.30 m/s²

μ = (585 cos 28.0° − 125 kg × 3.30 m/s²) / (125 kg × 9.8 m/s² − 585 sin 28.0°)

μ = 0.109
