Due to conservation of energy, half way the potential energy will be 1.5J so the remaining 1.5J is kinetic energy.
Work is equal to the force applied to an object multiplied by the distance it had travelled. This is work as long as the force and the direction of the distance in going in the same direction.
It is work because you're applying a force on an object to move it.
For example, work is done when you push a box across the floor, but work is not done when you lift the box up and then walk it across the room. This is because the force on the box is upwards since you're lifting it and the direction of the distance is left or right so the directions are not the same.
Answer:
Explanation:
When beam is balanced and not rotating with Suki standing on it , let reaction force on the supports be R₁ and R₂. Then
R₁ +R₂ = 336 + 590
= 929
Now the moment beam begins to tip , reaction on distant support R₁ = 0
only R₂ will exists on the support near to Suki.
Taking torque about this support of weight of beam acting from the middle point and weight of suki of 590N ,who is x distance from the support towards the other end.
336 x 1.5 = 590 x
x = .85 m
ie , from second support , Suki can not go beyond a distance of .85 m towards the second end.
