A cart loaded with bricks has a total mass of 9.13 kg and is pulled at constant speed by a rope. The rope is inclined at 24.7 ◦

degrees above the horizontal and the cart moves 15.1 m on a horizontal floor. The coefficient of kinetic friction between ground and cart is 0.597. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . How much work is done on the cart by the rope? Answer in units of kJ

Answer:

W = 0.63 KJ

Explanation:

Work (W) is defined as the point product of force (F) by the distance (d)the body travels due to this force.  

W= F*d *cosα Formula (1)  

F : force (N)

d : displacement (m)

α : angle between force and displacement

Newton's second law:

∑F = m*a Formula (2)  

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass s (kg)

a : acceleration  (m/s²)

We define the x-axis in the direction parallel to the movement of the cart on the ramp and the y-axis in the direction perpendicular to it.

Forces acting on the cart

W: Weight of the cart : In vertical direction

FN : Normal force : perpendicular to the floor

f : Friction force: parallel to the floor

T : tension Force,  inclined at  θ=24.7° above the horizontal

Calculated of the W

W= m*g

W= 9.13 kg* 9.8 m/s² = 89.47 N

x-y components o the  tension force (T)

Tx = Tcosθ = T*cos 24.7° (N)

Ty = Tsin θ = T*sin 24.7°  (N)

Calculated of the FN  

We apply the formula (2)  

∑Fy = m*ay ay = 0  

FN +Ty- W = 0  

FN = W-Ty  

FN =  89.47-T*sin 24.7°

Calculated of the friction force (f)

f = μk*FN

f =(0.597)*(  89.47-T*sin 24.7° )

f= 53.41-0.249T

Calculated of the tension force of the rope (f)

We apply the formula (2) :

∑Fx = m*ax  ,  ax= 0 ,because the speed of the cart  is constant

Tx - f = 0

T*cos 24.7°-( 53.41 - 0.249T )= 0

T*cos 24.7° + 0.249T = 53.41

(1.1575)T = 53.41

T= (53.41) / (1.1575)

T= 46.14 N

Work done on the cart by the rope

We apply the formula (1)

W=T*d *cosα

W= (46.14 N)*(15.1 m) *(cos24.7)

W = 632.97 (N*m) = 632.97 (J)

W = 0.63 KJ

Answer:

The range of powers is    - 5 \ D \le P \le - 2.667\  D

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The far point of the left eye is n_f = 20 cm

       The near point of the left eye is  n =  15cm

       The near point with the glasses on is n_g =25 \ cm

     

From these parameter we can see that with the glass on that for near point the

         Object distance would be u = -25 \ cm

          Image distance would be  v =  -15 \ cm

To obtain the focal length we would apply the lens formula which is mathematically represented as

              \frac{1}{f} =  \frac{1}{v}  -  \frac{1}{u}

substituting values

              \frac{1}{f} =  \frac{1}{-15}  -  \frac{1}{-25}

               f =  - \frac{75}{2} cm

           converting to  meters

               f =  - \frac{75}{2} * \frac{1}{100}

               f =  - \frac{75}{200} \ m

   Generally the power of the lens is mathematically represented as

                P  = \frac{1}{f}

Substituting values

                 P = -  \frac{200}{75}  m

                 P = - 2.667 \ D

   

From these parameter we can see that with the glass on that for far  point the

         Object distance would be u_f = - \infty \ cm

          Image distance would be  v_f =  -20  \ cm

To obtain the focal length of the lens we would apply the lens formula which is mathematically represented as

                    \frac{1}{f_f} =  \frac{1}{v_f}  -  \frac{1}{u_f}

substituting values

                  \frac{1}{f} =  \frac{1}{-20}  -  \frac{1}{- \infty}

                 \frac{1}{f} =  \frac{1}{-20}  -  0      

                  f_f =  \frac{20}{1}  \ cm

converting to  meters

                f_f =  - \frac{20}{1}  * \frac{1}{100}

               

Generally the power of the lens is mathematically represented as

                P  = \frac{1}{f_f}

Substituting values

                 P = -  \frac{100}{20}  m

                 P = - 5 \ D

This implies that the range of powers of the lens in his glass is

                  - 5 \ D \le P \le - 2.667\  D
