We know, U = m * g * h
U = 4000 * 9.8 * 20
U = 784000 J

In short, Your Answer would be: 784000 J or 784 KJ

Hope this helps!

The following graph shows the force exerted on and the displacement of object being pulled
Tomtit [17]

The work done to pull the object 7.0 m is the total area under the graph from 0.0 m to 7.0 m, determined as 245 J.

<h3>Work done by the applied force</h3>

The area under force versus displacement graph is work done.

The total work done by pulling the object 7 m, can be grouped into two areas;

  • First area, A1 = area of triangle from 0 m to 2.0 m
  • Second area, A2 = area of trapezium, from 2.0 m to 7.0 m

A1 = ¹/₂ bh

A1 = ¹/₂ x (2) x (20)

A1 = 20 J

A2 = ¹/₂(large base + small base) x height

A2  = ¹/₂[(7 - 2) + (7-3)] x 50

A2 = ¹/₂(5 + 4) x 50

A2 = 225 J

<h3>Total work done </h3>

W = A1 + A2

W = 20 J + 225 J

W = 245 J

You are loading a refrigerator weighing 2267 N onto a truck, using a wheeled cart. The refrigerator is raised 1.09 m to the truc
meriva

Answer:

a).

Wmin= 2471.03 J

W=1603.01 J

Explanation:

Weight, w= 2267 N

w= m*g\\W=m*g*h \\W=w*h

Minimum work 'h' is the distance the refrigerator is raised h=1.09m

W_{min}=2267 N* 1.09m\\W_{min}=2471.03 J

The motion is no frictional force so, the magnitude of the force with a angle of 45.0° is find using:

W=m*g*h'\\h'= sin(45)\\W=2267N*sin(45)\\W=1603.01 J
