Answer:False

Explanation:

Work is being done on a body when it causes displacement of body on the application of force

$Work\ done=Force\times displacement$

When we pull the door by a force it causes zero displacements of the door. So we can say that work done on it is zero.

Thus the above-given statement is false

The only force acting on a 3.0 kg canister that is moving in an xy plane has a magnitude of 5.0 N. The canister initially has a

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

The work done on the canister by the 5.0 N force during this time is

54.06 Joules.

Explanation:

Let the initial kinetic energy of the canister be

KE₁ = $\frac{1}{2} mv_1^{2}$ = $\frac{1}{2} *3*3.6^{2}$ = 19.44 J in the x direction

Let the the final kinetic energy of the canister be

KE₂ = $\frac{1}{2} mv_2^{2}$ = $\frac{1}{2} *3*7.0^{2}$ = 73.5 J in the y direction

Therefore from the Newton's first law of motion, the effect of the force is the change of momentum and the difference in energy between the initial and the final

= 73.5 J - 19.44 J = 54.06 J

Jim is driving a 2268-kg pickup truck at 22 m/s and releases his foot from the accelerator pedal. The car eventually stops due t

shutvik [7]

Answer:

610 meters.

Explanation:

Because Jim released the accelerator, the truck started to slow down, so the friction force will eventually stop the truck.

the kinetic energy of the truck just after Jim released the pedal is:

$E_k=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2\\E_k=\frac{1}{2}*2268*(22)^2=548856J$

The work done by the friction force is given by:

$W_f=F_s*d\\\\d=\frac{548856J}{900N}\\\\d=610m$

The current through a 10 ohm resistor connected to a 120 volt power supply is

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:I=12 A

Explanation:

Given

Resistance $R=10 \Omega$

Voltage $V=120 V$

According to ohm's law current through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage applied.

$V\propto I$

$V=IR$

where V=Voltage

I=Current

R=resistance

$I=\frac{V}{R}$

$I=\frac{120}{10}$

$I=12 A$
