Work is defined as the force times the distance which is mathematically expressed W = Fxd. The given force is 5x10^4 and the distance is 10000 m (the distance is converted as meter because Nm = J) the work done by the wind is W = 5x10^4 N (10000) = 500 x 10^6 Joules. I hope it answered your question

2. A jack exerts a vertical force of 4.5 X 103

skad [1K]

Correct Question:-

A jack exerts a vertical force of 4.5 × 10³

newtons to raise a car 0.25 meter. How much

work is done by the jack?

$\\ \\$

Given :-

$\star \sf \small force = 4.5 \times {10}^{3} \: newton$

$\star \sf \small distance = 0.25 \: meter$

$\\ \\$

To find:-

$\sf \star \: work = \: ?$

$\\ \\$

Solution:-

we know :-

$\bf \dag \boxed{ \rm work = force \times distance}$

$\\ \\$

So:-

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = force \times distance$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times 0.5 \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times \frac{0 \cancel.5}{10} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times \frac{5}{10} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = (4.5 \times 1 {0}^{3} ) \times \cancel \frac{5}{10} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{4\cancel.5}{10} \times 1 {0}^{3} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45}{10} \times 1 {0}^{3} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45}{10 {}^{0} } \times 1 {0}^{3 - 1} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45}{10 {}^{0} } \times 1 {0}^{2} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45}{1} \times 1 {0}^{2} \times \dfrac{1}{2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45 \times 10 \times \cancel{10}}{ \cancel2} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work = \dfrac{45 \times 10 \times 5}{ 1} \\$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \sf work =225 \times 10$

$\\ \\$

$\dashrightarrow \bf work =\red{2250\: joule}$

Is glass weigh more than wood

inn [45]

It depends how large the object is. But, if it is 2 by 4, most likely the wood sieges more than the glass. Hope this helps.

Your job is to lift 30 kgkg crates a vertical distance of 0.90 mm from the ground onto the bed of a truck. For related problem-s

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

The number of crates is 84580.

Explanation:

mass, m = 30 kg

height, h = 0.9 mm

Power, P = 0.5 hp = 0.5 x 746 W = 373 W

time, t = 1 minute = 60 s

Let the number of crates is n.

Power is given by the rate of doing work.

$P = \frac{n m gh}{t}\\\373 =\frac{n\times 30\times9.8\times 0.9\times 10^{-3}}{60}\\\\n =84580$
