the unaided eye. c) A virtual image cannot be photographed. d) A real image must be erect. e) Mirrors always produce real images because they reflect light.
Applying the work-energy theorem, if we can neglect the friction between truck and road, the total change in kinetic energy must be equal to the work done by the external forces.
This work, is just 4,475 J.
So we can write the following equation:
where m= mass of the truck = 2.5*10³ kg.
So, we can find the speed v, as follows:
b)
The work done by the man, is just the horizontal force applied, times the displacement produced by the force horizontally:
