Why is work and potential energy the same thing

Physics
1 answer:
kipiarov [429]4 years ago
5 0
Potential energy and work done are the same thing as much as kinetic energy and work done are the same thing. Potential energy is a state of the system, a way of storing energy as of virtue of its configuration or motion, while work done in most cases is a way of chaning this energy from one body to another.

A 30.4-newton force is used to slide a 40.0-newton crate a distance of 6.00 meters at constant speed along an incline to a verti
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Hi there!

Since the crate is being slid at a constant speed, the forces sum to 0 N. In this instance, the following forces occur in the axis of interest:

Wsinθ = downward acceleration along incline due to gravity (N)

Fκ = kinetic friction force along incline (N)

A = applied force (N)

The acceleration due to gravity and friction force act in the same direction, so:

Wsinθ + Fκ = A

Solve for sinθ using right triangle trigonometry:

sinθ = O/H = 3/6 = 0.5

Rearrange the equation for the force of kinetic friction and solve:

Fκ = A - 0.5W

Fκ = 30.4 - 20 = 10.4 N

Now, recall that:

Work = Force × displacement (W = F × d)

Since the box's displacement is in the same axis as the force but OPPOSITE direction, we must use:

W = Fdcosθ

Angle between displacement and friction force is 180°.

cos(180) = -1

Work done by friction = -Fd = -10.4(6) = -62.4 J
