A box is pushed 40 m by a mover. The amount of work done was 2,240 j. How much force was exerted on the box
1 answer:
The force exerted on the box is 56 N
Explanation:
The work done by a force on an object is given by
where
F is the magnitude of the force
d is the displacement of the object
is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement
For the box in this problem, we have:
W = 2240 J is the work done
d = 40 m is the displacement of the box
Assuming that the force is parallel to the displacement,
Solving the equation for F, we find the force exerted on the box:

Answer:
Time taken by A and B is 1.2 hr.
Explanation:
Given that
Time taken by tank when all(A+B+C) are open = 1 hr
Time taken by tank when A+C are open = 1.5 hr
Time taken by tank when B+C are open = 2 hr
If we treat as filling of tank is a work then
Work = time x rate
Lets take work is 1 unit
1 = 1(1/a+1/b+1/c) ---------1
1 = 1.5(1/a+1/c) ----------2
1 = 2(1/b+1/c) --------3
From equation 1 and 3
1=1(1/a+1/2)
a=2
Form equation 2
1 = 1.5(1/2+1/c)
c=6
From equation 3
1 = 2(1/b+1/6)
b=3
So time taken by
A is alone to fill tank is 2 hr
B is alone to fill tank is 3 hr
C is alone to fill tank is 6 hr
So
Time taken by A and B is 1.2 hr.
