Answer:

The work done by the worker on the crate is 4830 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force = 1080 N

Horizontal force = 345 N

Distance d = 14 m

Coefficient of friction = 0.22

We need to calculate the work done

Using formula of work done

W = Fd

F = force

d = distance

Put the value into the formula

W=345\times14

W=4830\ J

Hence, The work done by the worker on the crate is 4830 J.

Answer:

(a) 1503.6 J

Explanation:

Weight of crate, mg = 1080 N

Applied force, F = 345 N

d = 14 m

μ = 0.22

(a)

Work done by the applied force, W1 = Appled force x distance

W1 = F x d = 345 x 14 = 4830 J

Work done by the friction force, W2 = Friction force x distance

W2 = μ x mg x d = 0.22 x 1080 x 14 = 3326.4 J

This work is negative as the direction of friction force and the distance is opposite to each other.

So, the work done by the worker on the crate is

W = W1 - W2 = 4830 - 3326.4 = 1503.6 J

How does vacuum reduce thermal energy transfer
FrozenT [24]
The silver coating on the inner bottle prevents heat transfer by radiation, and the vacuum between its double wall prevents heat moving by convection. The thinness of the glass walls stops heat entering or leaving the flask by conduction.

Explain in terms of impulse how padding reduces forces in a collision. State this in terms of a real example, such as the advant
Lena [83]

Answer:

Impulse = Average force x time of contact

Explanation:

Impulsive force is a force which is very large but applied on a body for a very small duration of time.

Impulse is given by the change in momentum of the body.

Impulse = Average force x small time interval

When padding is there, the time interval of contact is large and thus, the force exerted by the body is small.

So, when a person falls on the tile floor, there is no compression and thus, the time of contact is very small and thus the impulsive force is very large, due to  which the body may damage.

So, when a person falls on the carpeted floor, there is a compression and thus, the time of contact is comparatively large and thus the impulsive force is small, due to  which the body may safe.

A 2.7-kg ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 20.0 m/s from the edge of a 45.0 m high cliff. At the instant the ball i
scoray [572]

Answer:

The distance traveled by the woman is 34.1m

Explanation:

Given

The initial height of the cliff

yo = 45m final, positition y = 0m bottom of the cliff

y = yo + ut -1/2gt²

u = 20.0m/s initial speed

g = 9.80m/s²

0 = 45.0 + 20×t –1/2×9.8×t²

0 = 45 +20t –4.9t²

Solving quadratically or by using a calculator,

t = 5.69s and –1.61s byt time cannot be negative so t = 5.69s

So this is the total time it takes for the ball to reach the ground from the height it was thrown.

The distance traveled by the woman is

s = vt

Given the speed of the woman v = 6.00m/s

Therefore

s = 6.00×5.69 = 34.14m

Approximately 34.1m to 3 significant figures.

As mass increases what happens to the kinetic energy
AnnyKZ [126]
As mass increases kinetic energy also increases; kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass so whatever is done to either affects the other one the same. i hope this helps :)
