Given :
A mover slides a refrigerator weighing 650 N at a constant velocity across the floor a distance of 8.1 m.
The force of friction between the refrigerator and the floor is 230 N.
To Find :
How much work has been performed by the mover on the refrigerator.
Solution :
Since, refrigerator is moving with constant velocity.
So, force applied by the mover is also 230 N ( equal to force of friction ).
Now, work done in order to move the refrigerator is :
Hence, this is the required solution.
Hello!
Use the equation:
Where:
m = mass of the object (kg)
g = acceleration due to gravity (≈9.8 m/s)
h = height above ground (m)
Plug the given values into the equation:
PE = 7500 · 9.8 · 100
PE = 7,350,000 Joules.
Incomplete question as we have not told to find what.So the complete question is here
A vessel at rest at the origin of an xy coordinate system explodes into three pieces. Just after the explosion, one piece, of mass m, moves with velocity (-60 m/s)i and a second piece, also of mass m, moves with velocity (-60 m/s)j. The third piece has mass 3m.Just after the explosion, what are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the velocity of the third piece?
Answer:
Explanation:
Given data
The vessel at rest
Piece one,of mass m,moves with velocity=(-60 m/s)i
Piece two,of mass m,moves with velocity=(-60 m/s)j
Piece three,of mass 3m
As the linear momentum is conserved in this system,Because the system is closed and no external force acting on it
So momentum is given as
As the vessel at rest so the initial momentum is zero
So
