Answer:

Few things are missing, they are volume of the box is 180 feet cube. Length is 9 feet greater than its height, and weight is 4 feet less than its height.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, the volume of the box, V = 180 feet cube

Let the height of the box, h = x feet

Therefore, length is, l = ( 9+x ) feet

And width is, b = ( x-4) feet

so volume of the box is

V = l x b x h

$ 180= (x+9) \times (x-4) \times (x)$

$ x^3 +5x^2-36x -180 =0$

Factorizing we get

(x+5)(x-6)(x+6)=0

Therefore,

x = -5, -6, 6

Now since the height of the box cannot be negative, so taking the positive value of x, we get

Height of the box, h = x = 6 feet

Length , l = ( 9+x ) = 9+6 = 15 feet

Width , b = ( x-4) = 6-4 = 2 feet

A traveler pulls a suitcase, as shown in the figure.
hjlf

Answer:

2758 Nm

Step-by-step explanation

Work done usually depends on two things force applied and distance travelled due to applied force. In this current scenario, the force is being applied at an angle so we will have to find a component of force in the direction of the movement.

We usually find component using cos θ.

Here θ is 40°

Now, the modified equation becomes,

Work Done = Force * Distance * Component of force along the direction of distance

∴ Work = 30 N * 120 m * Cos 40°

⇒Work = 30 * 120 * 0.766

⇒Work = 2757.6 Nm

Rounding to the nearest whole number.

∴ The work done by force is 2758 Nm which is option B
