Question

Learning Goal: To be able to calculate work done by a constant force directed at different angles relative to displacement

Answer 1

Answer:

Woke done, W = 4156.92 Joules

Explanation:

The work done by the force can be calculated as :

$W=F\times s$

$W=Fs\ cos\theta$

$\theta$ is the angle between force and the displacement

It is assumed to find the work done for the given parameters i.e.

Force, F = 30 N

Distance travelled, s = 160 m

Angle between force and displacement, $\theta=30$

Work done is given by :

$W=Fs\ cos\theta$

$W=30\times 160\ cos(30)$

W = 4156.92 Joules

So, the work done by the object is 4156.92 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.
