The quantity work has to do with a force causing a displacement. Work has nothing to do with the amount of time that this force acts to cause the displacement. Sometimes, the work is done very quickly and other times the work is done rather slowly. For example, a rock climber takes an abnormally long time to elevate her body up a few meters along the side of a cliff. On the other hand, a trail hiker (who selects the easier path up the mountain) might elevate her body a few meters in a short amount of time. The two people might do the same amount of work, yet the hiker does the work in considerably less time than the rock climber. The quantity that has to do with the rate at which a certain amount of work is done is known as the power. The hiker has a greater power rating than the rock climber.

Power is the rate at which work is done. It is the work/time ratio. Mathematically, it is computed using the following equation.


Power = Work / time


or


P = W / t

A time-varying horizontal force F(t) = At4 + Bt2 acts for 0.500 s on a 12.25-kg object, starting attime t = 1.00 s. In the SI sy
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

3.82 Ns

Explanation:

Time varying horizontal Force is given as

F(t) = A t⁴ + B t²

F(t) = 4.50 t⁴ + 8.75 t²

Impulse imparted is given as

I = \int_{0}^{t}Fdt

I = \int_{0}^{1}Fdt

I = \int_{0}^{1}(4.50 t^{4} + 8.75 t^{2})dt

I = ((0.9) (1)^{5} + (2.92) (1)^{3})

I = 3.82 N-s

A net force of 20 N acting on a wooden block produces an
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

From the second law of motion:

F = ma

we are given that the force applied on the block is 20N and the block accelerates at an acceleration of 4 m/s/s

So, F=  20N   and  a = 4 m/s/s

Replacing the variables in the equation:

20 = 4* m

m = 20 / 4

m = 5 kg

To calculate the change in kinetic energy, you must know the force as a function of _______. The work done by the force causes t
aliya0001 [1]

To calculate the change in kinetic energy, you must know the force as a function of position. The work done by the force causes the kinetic energy change

Explanation:

The work-energy theorem states that the change in kinetic enegy of an object is equal to the work done on the object:

\Delta E_k = W

where the work done is the integral of the force over the position of the object:

W=\int F(x) dx

As we see from the formula, the magnitude of the force F(x) can be dependent from the position of the object, therefore in order to solve correctly the integral and find the work done on the object, it is required to know the behaviour of the force as a function of the position, x.
