I am pretty sure but not 100% that it would still continue to orbit
Answer:
so simple it is a square formula
Work done = force x distance (where the force is in the direction of the distance travelled)
We must resolve the force so that it is horizontal to the ground
force = 75cos45
Then simply plug into the formula, so:
work done = 75cos45 x 15 = 795.49... Nm = 795 Nm (3 sig. fig.)
Meerkat is incorrect but correct the answer is 15 and yes this can be explaned by Newton’s third law of motion for every action there is an equal or opposite reaction
Your welcome and have a great day. :p
