Answer:

Displacement (i.e. change in its final position)

Explanation:

In classical mechanics work is described as the displacement of the body in the direction of the applied force.

<u>Mathematically given as:</u>

$W=F.s\ cos\ \theta$

where:

F = force on the body

s = displacement of the body

θ = angle between the force and direction of displacement

While force, acceleration, velocity can also be the answer for the blank space but the displacement effect is visible during and even after the work has been done, so one can notice the change in position of the object even when the person has not seen the process but just the initial condition of the body.

How can a large force result in a relatively small power?

Sav [38]

Answer:

hey mate here is your answer

So if an object has a very small velocity (not moving very far over time, even though a large force may be applied to it, the Power will remain small. ... Stepping on the gas, or "speeding up" the car, is applying a force which will increase velocity and increase power.

A toy car pushed across the floor is observed to slow down and stop based on Newton’s first law of motion what is the best concl

Maksim231197 [3]

An object in motion eventually stops because of friction.

<h3>What is Newton’s first law of motion?</h3>

Newton's first law states that if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or continue its moving in a straight line at constant speed unless force is applied on it.

So we can conclude that An object in motion eventually stops is the correct answer.

A cyclist starts from rest and coasts down a 4.0∘ hill. The mass of the cyclist plus bicycle is 85 kg. Ignore air resistance and

Angelina_Jolie [31]

A) change in ht after 180m = 180 * sin(4-deg.) = 12.56m

net work done by gravity on the cyclist = mass * gravity * height diff.

= 85 * 9.8 * 12.56

= 10470J

= 10.5kJ

B) Kinetic energy = 1/2 * mass * vel.^2 = work done by gravity = 10470J

vel.^2 = 10470 * 2 / 85 = 246.4

vel. = 15.7m/s

Calculate the force which will produce an extension of 0.30mm in a steel wire with a length of 4.0m and a cross section area of

Anna [14]

Given data:

* The extension of the steel wire is 0.3 mm.

* The length of the wire is 4 m.

* The area of cross section of wire is,

$A=2\times10^{-6}m^2$

* The young modulus of the steel is,

$Y=2.1\times10^{11}\text{ Pa}$

Solution:

The young modulus of the steel in terms of the force and extension is,

$Y=\frac{F\times l}{A\times dl}$

where F is the force acting on the steel wire,, l is the original length of the wire, dl is the extension of the wire, and A is the area,

Substituting the known values,

$\begin{gathered} 2.1\times10^{11}=\frac{F\times4}{2\times10^{-6}\times0.3\times10^{-3}} \\ F=0.315\times10^2\text{ N} \\ F=31.5\text{ N} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the force which produce the extension of 0.3 mm of the steel wire is 31.5 N.
