Potential energy is possessed by the body while at rest while the body in motion possesses kinetic energy.
Potential energy is given by mgh where m is the mass of the body, g is the gravitational acceleration(9.8m/s^2) and h is the height.
Therefore, 200J = 10 × 9.8 ×h
h = 200/98
h = 2.041 m

$a=5000\dfrac{mm}{s}=5\dfrac{m}{s}$

$f=10{Hz}\Longrightarrow t=\dfrac{1}{10}s$

$a_{max}=\dfrac{50\frac{m}{s}}{\frac{s}{10}}\cdot\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=\dfrac{50\dfrac{m}{s^2}}{\sqrt{2}}\approx\boxed{35.4\dfrac{m}{s^2}}$

Hope this helps.

A 46.0-kg box is being pushed a distance of 8.80 m across the floor by a force P whose magnitude is 171 N. The force P is parall

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

a) 1504.8 J

b) 991.76 J

c) 0J

d) 0J

Explanation:

(a) The work done by the force P on the box is given by the following formula:

$W_P=Px$

P: applied force = 171N

x: distance in which the for P is applied = 8.80m

you replace the values of P and x and obtain:

$W_P=(171N)(8.80m)=1504.8J$

(b) The work don by the friction force is:

$W_f=F_fx=\mu N x=\mu Mg x$

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.250

M: mass of the box = 46.0kg

g: gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s^2

$W_f=(0.250)(46.0kg)(9.8m/s^2)(8.80m)=991.76J$

(c) The Normal force is

$N=Mg=(46.0kg)(9,8m/s^2)=450.8N$

but this force does not do work on the box because the direction is perpendicular to the direction of the force P.

$W_N=0J$

(d) the same as before:

$W_g=0J$
