Given Information:  

mass of crate = m = 117 kg

distance = d = 2.75 m  

Inclined plane angle = θ = 28°

Required Information:  

Work done = W = ?

Answer:  

Work done = 1480.3 N.m

Explanation:

Refer to the attached image, since there is no friction, the only force acting on the crate is the force in the downward direction given by

Fy = mgsin(θ)

Fy = 117*9.8*sin(28°)

Fy = 538.3 N

Now as we know work done is given by

W = Fy*d

W = 538.3*2.75

W = 538.3*2.75

W = 1480.3 N.m

Therefore, 1480.3 N.m of work is required to push a 117 kg  of crate to a distance of 2.75 m up an inclined plane making an angle of 28° with the horizontal surface.

Answer:

W_{tot,min} = 1481.372\,J

Explanation:

The minimum total work is the work needed to counteract the work associated with the weight:

W_{tot, min} = W_{F}

W_{tot,min} = m\cdot g\cdot \sin \theta \cdot \Delta s

W_{tot,min} = (117\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (\sin 28^{\textdegree}) \cdot (2.75\,m)

W_{tot,min} = 1481.372\,J

What do you mean by acceleration due to gravity? ​
likoan [24]

It is the acceleration of an object in free fall

Explanation:

When an object is in free fall, it is subjected only to one force: the force of gravity, which pulls the object downward, with a magnitude (near the Earth's surface) which is given by

F=mg

where

m is the mass of the object

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

We can apply Newton's second law to the object in free fall:

F=ma

where

F is the net force on the object

a is the acceleration of the object

m is the mass

However, since there is only the force of gravity acting on the object, the net force is equal to the force of gravity: so we can equate the two equations, obtaining that

mg = ma\\\rightarrow a = g

Which means that the acceleration of an object in free fall (acted upon the force of gravity only) is equal to the acceleration due to gravity, g=9.8 m/s^2.

A biconvex lens is formed by using a piece of plastic(n=1.70).
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

f =17.15\ cm

Explanation:

given,

refractive index of lens, n = 1.70

Radius of curvature of front surface. R₁ = 20 cm

Radius of curvature of the back surface, R₂ = 30 cm

focal length= ?

\dfrac{1}{f}=(n-1)(\dfrac{1}{R_1}-\dfrac{1}{R_2})

    R₁ = +20 cm

    R₂ = -30 cm

    n = 1.70

\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.70-1)(\dfrac{1}{20}-\dfrac{1}{-30})

\dfrac{1}{f}=0.70 \times 0.0833

f = \dfrac{1}{0.7 \times 0.0833}

f =17.15\ cm

the focal length of the lens is equal to 17.15 cm
