Answer: 9 m

Explanation:

Work is said to be done when an unbalanced force causes displacement of the body.

Force is the product of mass (m) and acceleration (a).

Work = Force × Displacement

⇒W = F.s = ma.s

It is given that mass of the dresser is, m = 250 kg

work done, W = 126 J

Force acting on the dresser, F = 14 N

we need to find displacement, s

⇒126 J = 14 N × s

⇒ s = 126 J/ 14 N = 9 m

Hence, Laurie is able to move the dresser to about 9 m.

<u>Answer:</u>

9 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

When an object moves or displaces along the direction of the applied force application of force, it is said that work is done.

We know the formula of work:

<em>Work = force x displacement </em>

where force = mass x acceleration

So this formula can be further broken down to :

Work = mass x acceleration x d

Putting in the given values to get:

126 = 14 x d

d = 126/14

d = 9 m

Therefore, the dresser was moved by 9m.

If Susan exerted a force of 5 newtons and the output force of the machine is 15
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Mechanical advantage = 3

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage, MA = Output force/Input force

Output force = 15 N. Input force = 5 N

MA = Output force/Input force = 15 N/ 5 N = 3

The torque exerted by a crowbar on an object increases with increased _______.
Fofino [41]

Answer:

force and leverage distance

Explanation:

the formula for torque if = force x distance

(the distance above is the leverage distance on the crow bar)

therefore if there is an increase in either the torque or the leverage distance, or both, the torque exerted by the crow bar also increases.

for example

  • lets assume a force of 5 n is applied on the crow bar with a leverage distance of 2 m.

        the torque = 5 x 2 = 10 N.m

  • but if the force was increased to 7 N

        torque = 7 x 2 = 12 N.m

from the illustration above, we can see that the torque increased with an increase in force. There would also be an increase in torque if the distance were to be increased.

Refer to the diagram shown.

Given:
h(n,e) = 1500 + 75n + 50e

Define 
\hat{r} = unit \, vector \, along \, \vec{v} \\ \hat{i} = unit \, vector \, east \\ \hat{j} = unit \, vector \, north \\ \nabla \equiv \hat{i}  \frac{\partial}{\partial e} + \hat{j}  \frac{\partial}{\partial n}

\hat{r} =  \frac{1}{ \sqrt{2} } (-\hat{i}+\hat{j} )

Then the rate of change of h with respect to the vector v is
\nabla h . \hat{r} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(50\hat{i} + 75\hat{j}).(-\hat{i}+\hat{j}) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} (-50+75) =17.68

Answer: 17.7 ft per mile
