To move a refrigerator of mass 170 kg into a house, a mover puts it on a dolly and covers the steps leading into the house with

a wooden plank acting as a ramp. The plank is 9.6 m long and rises 3.3 m. The mover pulls the dolly with constant velocity and with a steady force 1400 N up the ramp. How much work does he perform? The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Answer in units of J.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

         mass (m) = 170 kg,        Distance (s) = 9.6 m

        Height (h) = 3.3 m,         Force (F) = 1400 N

First, we will calculate the work performed by her as follows.

                W = Fs

                    = 1400 N \times 9.6 m

                    = 13440 J

Hence, minimal work necessary to lift the refrigerator is as follows.

               U = mgh

                   = 170 kg \times 9.8 \times 3.3 m

                   = 5497.8 J

Therefore, we can conclude that he performed 5497.8 J of work.

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

a) > x<-c(1,2,3,4,5)

> y<-c(1.9,3.5,3.7,5.1,6)

> linearmodel<-lm(y~x)

And the output is given by:

> linearmodel

Call:

lm(formula = y ~ x)

Coefficients:

(Intercept)            x  

      1.10         0.98  

b) y = 0.98 x +1.10

And if we compare this with the general model y = mx +b

We see that the slope is m= 0.98 and the intercept b = 1.10

Explanation:

Part a

For this case we have the following data:

x: 1,2,3,4,5

y: 1.9,3.5,3.7,5.1, 6

For this case we can use the following R code:

> x<-c(1,2,3,4,5)

> y<-c(1.9,3.5,3.7,5.1,6)

> linearmodel<-lm(y~x)

And the output is given by:

> linearmodel

Call:

lm(formula = y ~ x)

Coefficients:

(Intercept)            x  

      1.10         0.98  

Part b

For this case we have the following trend equation given:

y = 0.98 x +1.10

And if we compare this with the general model y = mx +b

We see that the slope is m= 0.98 and the intercept b = 1.10

White raven [17]

Answer:

(a) -472.305  J

(b) 1 m

Explanation:

(a)

Change in mechanical energy equals change in kinetic energy

Kinetic energy is given by0.5mv^{2}

Initial kinetic energy is 0.5\times 69\times 3.7^{2}=472.305 J

Since he finally comes to rest, final kinetic energy is zero because the final velocity is zero

Change in kinetic energy is given by final kinetic energy- initial kinetic energy hence

0-472.305  J=-472.305  J

(b)

From fundamental kinematic equation

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

Where v and u are final and initial velocities respectively, a is acceleration, s is distance

Making s the subject we obtain

s=\frac {v^{2}-u^{2}}{-2a} but a=\mu g hence

s=\frac {v^{2}-u^{2}}{-2\mu g}=\frac {0^{2}-3.7^{2}}{-2*0.7*9.81}=0.996796272\approx 1 m
