Answer:

W=6 J (Joules)

Ep=0 J (Joules)

Step-by-step explanation:

A trunk is dragged 3 m across an attic floor by a force of 2 N.

Work done is the amount of energy transferred. The formula is:

W=F×d

Which is the same as:

W=F×d=F.d.cosφ

Where,

F: Force (N).

d: Distance moved in the direction of the force (displacement) (m).

φ: Angle between the force and the direction of motion.

Now, replacing the data:

W=2N.3m.cos(0°) (We assume that the force and the displacement have the same direction and orientation. That's why φ=0°)

Then,

W=2N.3m.1=6Nm

W=6 J

Now we have to calculate the gain in potential energy:

The gravitational potential energy (Ep) is the energy stored by an object because of its position. The formula is:

Ep=m.g.h

Where,

m: Mass of the object. (Kg)

g: Acceleration due to gravity. (\frac{m}{s^2})

h: Vertical height. (m)

In this case there isn't vertical height. We assume that the displacement is  in the floor level and we are going to take this as h=0m

Ep=0 J

Work done on trunk = force * distance = 2 * 3 = 6 joules

Gain in potential energy = 0 joules

Line Equation from Two Points
Verdich [7]

Hi!

We can use <u>point-slope form </u>to solve this.

y-y_{1} =m(x -x_{1})

y_{1}<em> and </em>x_{1}<em> will be from one of the points.</em>

<u>First, we have to find </u>m<u>, the slope. We can use the slope equation to get this.</u>

\frac{y_{1} -y_{2} }{x_{1} -x_{2} }

<em>Plug in your points:</em>

\frac{4-0}{8-(-8)} =\frac{4-0}{8+8} =\frac{4}{16} =\frac{1}{4}

Your slope is \frac{1}{4}

<u><em>Now plug points and slope into point-slope equation. We will use (8, 4).</em></u>

y-4=\frac{1}{4} (x-8)

Now, if you want to get it into y = mx + b form, you have to solve for y:

y-4=\frac{1}{4} (x-8)

y-4=\frac{1}{4} x-2

y=\frac{1}{4} +2

Your equation is y=\frac{1}{4} +2

<u><em>For more information on how to get the equation of a line when given two points, see here:</em></u>

Y=-5x+9

3x+2(-5x+9)=4
3x-10x+18=4
-7x=4-18
-7x=-14
x=2

5(2)+y=9
10+y=9
y=9-10
y=-1

The answer is (2,-1) :)
