                         Work  =  (force) x (distance)

If the distance is zero (the object doesn't move), then it
doesn't matter how great the force is.  The work is still zero.

You pick up a 3.4-kg can of paint from the ground and lift it to a height of 1.8 m. (a) how much work do you do on the can of pa
MariettaO [177]

(a) For the work-energy theorem, the work done to lift the can of paint is equal to the gravitational potential energy gained by it, therefore it is equal to

W=mg\Delta h

where m=3.4 kg is the mass of the can, g=9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration and \Delta h=1.8 m is the variation of height. Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find

W=(3.4 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(1.8 m)=60.0 J


(b) In this case, the work done is zero. In fact, we know from its definition that the work done on an object is equal to the product between the force applied F and the displacement:

W=Fd

However, in this case there is no displacement, so d=0 and W=0, therefore the work done to hold the can stationary is zero.


(c) In this case, the work done is negative, because the work to lower the can back to the ground is done by the force of gravity, which pushes downward. Its value is given by the same formula used in part (a):

W=mg \Delta h=(3.4 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(-1.8 m)=-60.0 J

A city of punjab has 15 percemt chance of wet weather on any given day. What is probability that it will take a week for it thre
sesenic [268]

Answer:

The probability that it will take a week for it three wet weather on 3 separate days is 0.06166 and its standard deviation is 0.9447

Explanation:

We are given that A city of Punjab has 15 percent chance of wet weather on any given day.

So, Probability of wet weather = 0.15

Probability of not being a wet weather = 1-0.15 =0.85

We are supposed to find probability that it will take a week for it three wet weather on 3 separate days

Total number of days in a week = 7

We will use binomial over here

n = 7

p =probability of failure = 0.15

q = probability of success=0.85

r=3

Formula :P(r=3)=^nC_r p^r q ^{n-r}

P(r=3)=^{7}C_{3} (0.15)^3 (0.85)^{7-3}\\P(r=3)=\frac{7!}{3!(7-3)!} (0.15)^3 (0.85)^{7-3}\\P(r=3)=0.06166

Standard deviation =\sqrt{n \times p \times q}

Standard deviation =\sqrt{7 \times 0.15 \times 0.85}

Standard deviation =0.9447

Hence The probability that it will take a week for it three wet weather on 3 separate days is 0.06166 and its standard deviation is 0.9447

The driver of a 1750 kg car traveling on a horizontal road at 110 km/h suddenly applies the brakes. Due to a slippery pavement,
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer: a=-2.4525 m/s^2

d=s=190.3 m

Explanation:The only force that is stopping the car and causing deceleration is the frictional force Fr

Fr = 25% of weight

W=mg

W=1750*9.81

W=17167.5

Hence

Fr=\frac{25}{100} * -17167.5\\\\Fr=-4291.875 N

Frictional force is negative as it acts in opposite direction

According to newton second law of motion

F=ma

hence

a=Fr/m

a=-4291.875/1750\\a=-2.4525

given

u= 110 km/h

u=110*1000/3600

u=30.55 m/s

to get t we know that final velocity v=0

v^2=u^2+2as\\0=30.55^2-2*2.4525*s\\s=190.34m

A construction worker is carrying a load of 40 kg over his head and is walking at a constant velocity if he travels a distance o
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

W = 0

Explanation:

We are given with, a construction worker is carrying a load of 40 kg over his head and is walking at a constant velocity. He travels a distance of 50 m.

The work done by an object is given by :

W=Fd

F = ma

So,

W=mad

m is mass

a is acceleration

d is displacement

The worker is moving with constant velocity, its acceleration will be 0. So, the work done by the worker is 0.
