Answer: because there is no displacement or movement in the watchman's work. according to science when displacement or movement take place it is said to be work. hope this helps you.
Correct question:
Consider the motion of a 4.00-kg particle that moves with potential energy given by

a) Suppose the particle is moving with a speed of 3.00 m/s when it is located at x = 1.00 m. What is the speed of the object when it is located at x = 5.00 m?
b) What is the magnitude of the force on the 4.00-kg particle when it is located at x = 5.00 m?
Answer:
a) 3.33 m/s
b) 0.016 N
Explanation:
a) given:
V = 3.00 m/s
x1 = 1.00 m
x = 5.00

At x = 1.00 m

= 4J
Kinetic energy = (1/2)mv²

= 18J
Total energy will be =
4J + 18J = 22J
At x = 5

= -0.24J
Kinetic energy =

= 2Vf²
Total energy =
2Vf² - 0.024
Using conservation of energy,
Initial total energy = final total energy
22 = 2Vf² - 0.24
Vf² = (22+0.24) / 2

= 3.33 m/s
b) magnitude of force when x = 5.0m



At x = 5.0 m


= 0.016N
Answer:
Weight is a force.
Explanation:
Force acting on an object is defined in terms of mass and its acceleration. Its mathematical force is given by
F = ma
Weight of an object is force that the Earth exerts on an object. It can be given by the formula as follows :
W = mg
g is acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth
Hence, the correct option is (d).
Answer:
d = 1.954 Km
Explanation:
given,
total distance, D = 2.5 Km
in stretch A to B =
speed = 99 Km/h = 99 x 0.278 = 27.22 m/s time =t
in stretch B to C
time = 3.4 s
In stretch C to D
speed = 48 Km/h = 48 x 0.278 = 13.34 m/s time =t
we know,
distance = speed x time
distance of BC
using equation of motion
v = u + a t
27.22 = 13.34 - a x 3.4
a = 4.08 m/s²
uniform deceleration is equal to 4.08 m/s²
distance traveled in BC


s = 68.94 m

3000 = 27.5 t + 68.94 + 13.33 t
40.83 t = 2931.06
t = 71.79 s
distance travel in AB
distance = s x t
d = 27.22 x 71.79
d = 1954 m
d = 1.954 Km
distance between A and B is equal to 1.954 Km.
The force between them <em>decreases</em><em>,</em> as the square of the distance.
For example ...
-- If you move them apart to double the original distance, the force becomes (1/2²) = 1/4 of the original force.
-- If you move them apart to 3 times the original distance, the force becomes (1/3²) = 1/9 of the original force.
-- If you move them apart to 5 times the original distance, the force becomes (1/5²) = 1/25 of the original force.
(Gravity works exactly the same way.)
