A shopper does 157 J of work pushing a cart with 10.9 N force

Physics
1 answer:
Tanzania [10]2 years ago
4 0

The cart travelled a distance of 14.4 m

Explanation:

The work done by a force when pushing an object is given by:

W=Fd cos \theta

where:

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement

In this problem we have:

W = 157 J is the work done on the cart

F = 10.9 N is the magnitude of the force

\theta=0^{\circ}, assuming the force is applied parallel to the motion of the cart

Therefore we can solve for d to find the distance travelled by the cart:

d=\frac{W}{F cos \theta}=\frac{157}{(10.9)(cos 0)}=14.4 m

How does a mirror affect the path of light?
yulyashka [42]

Light rays change direction when they hit a mirror. The phenomenon is known as reflection. Light rays travels in a straight light. They strike the surface of the mirror at a particular angle called incident angle. It is the angle between the ray and normal at the point of contact. The rays leaves the surface making the same angle with the normal called reflection angle but in different direction.

Henry, whose mass is 95 kg, stands on a bathroom scale in an elevator. The scale reads 830 N for the first 3.8 s after the eleva
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

v= 4.0 m/s

Explanation:

  • When standing on the bathroom scale within the moving elevator, there are two forces acting on Henry's mass: Normal force and gravity.
  • Gravity is always downward, and normal force is perpendicular to the surface on which the mass is located (the bathroom scale), in upward direction.
  • Normal force, can adopt any value needed to match the acceleration of the mass, according to Newton's 2nd Law.
  • Gravity (which we call weight near the Earth's surface) can be  calculated as follows:

       F_{g} = m*g = 95 kg * 9.8 m/s2 = 930 N (1)

  • According to Newton's 2nd Law, it must be met the following condition:

       F_{net} = F_{g} -F_{n} = m*a\\  F_{net} = 930 N - 830 N = 100 N = 95 Kg * a

  • As the gravity is larger than normal force, this means that the acceleration is downward, so, we choose this direction as the positive.
  • Solving for a, we get:

       a =\frac{F_{net} }{m} =\frac{100 N}{95 kg} =  1.05 m/s2

  • We can find the speed after the first 3.8 s (assuming a is constant), applying the definition of acceleration as the rate of change of velocity:

        v_{f} = a* t = 1.05 m/s * 3.8 m/s = 4.0 m/s

  • Now, if during the next 3.8 s, normal force is 930 N (same as the weight), this means that both forces are equal each other, so net force is 0.
  • According to Newton's 2nd Law, if net force is 0, the object  is either or at rest, or moving at a constant speed.
  • As the elevator  was moving, the only choice is that it is moving at  a constant speed, the same that it had when the scale was read for the first time, i.e., 4 m/s downward.

Un cable está tendido sobre dos postes colocados con una separación de 10 m. A la mitad del cable se cuelga un letrero que provo
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

El peso del cartel es 397,97 N

Explanation:

La tensión dada en cada segmento del cable = 2000 N

El desplazamiento vertical del cable = 50 cm = 0,5 m

La distancia entre los polos = 10 m

La posición del letrero en el cable = En el medio = 5

El ángulo de inclinación del cable a la vertical = tan⁻¹ (0.5 / 5) = 5.71 °

El peso del letrero = La suma del componente vertical de la tensión en cada lado del letrero

El peso del signo = 2000 × sin (5.71 grados) + 2000 × sin (5.71 grados) = 397.97 N

El peso del signo = 397,97 N.

A man pushes down on a lever with 45 N and the lever moves 1.5 meters. The other end of the lever lifts a 87.6 N box .4 meters.
AysviL [449]
The input work = Force x distance
So I/P = 45 x 1.5 = 67.5 N.m

The output work = Force x distance
So, O/P = 87.6 x 0.4 = 35.04 N.m

Efficiency = (output work / Inputwork) x 100
= ( 35.04/67.5) x100

Efficiency = 51.91 %
