A 70-kg boy is surfing and catches a wave which gives him an initial speed of 1.6 m/s. He then drops through a height of 1.60 m,

and ends with a speed of 8.5 m/s. How much nonconservative work (in kJ) was done on the boy

Answer:

3.6 KJ

Explanation: Given that a 70-kg boy is surfing and catches a wave which gives him an initial speed of 1.6 m/s. He then drops through a height of 1.60 m, and ends with a speed of 8.5 m/s. How much nonconservative work (in kJ) was done on the boy

The workdone = the energy.

There are two different energies in the scenario - the potential energy (P.E ) and the kinetic energy ( K.E )

P.E = mgh

P.E = 70 × 9.8 × 1.6

P.E = 1097.6 J

P.E = 1.098 KJ

K.E = 1/2mv^2

K.E = 1/2 × 70 × 8.5^2

K.E = 2528.75 J

K.E = 2.529 KJ

The non conservative workdone = K.E + P.E

Work done = 1.098 + 2.529

Work done = 3.63 KJ

Therefore, the non conservative workdone is 3.6 KJ approximately

A boy flies a kite with the string at a 30 degree angle to the horizontal. The tension in the string is 4.5N .
sp2606 [1]
How much work in J does the string do on the boy if the boy stands still? 

<span>answer: None. The equation for work is W = force x distance. Since the boy isn't moving, the distance is zero. Anything times zero is zero </span>
<span>--------------------------------------... </span>
<span>How much work does the string do on the boy if the boy walks a horizontal distance of 11m away from the kite? </span>

<span>answer: might be a trick question since his direction away from the kite and his velocity weren't noted. Perhaps he just set the string down and walked away 11m from the kite. If he did this, it is the same as the first one...no work was done by the sting on the boy. </span>

<span>If he did walk backwards with no velocity indicated, and held the string and it stayed at 30 deg the answer would be: </span>
<span>4.5N + (boys negative acceleration * mass) = total force1 </span>
<span>work = total force1 x 11 meters </span>
<span>--------------------------------------... </span>

<span>How much work does the string do on the boy if the boy walks a horizontal distance of 11m toward the kite? </span>

<span>answer: same as above only reversed: </span>
<span>4.5N - (boys negative acceleration * mass) = total force2 </span>
<span>work = total force2 x 11 meters</span>
