The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

A floating ice block is pushed through a displacement vector d = (15m)i - (12m)j along a straight embankment by rushing water, which exerts a force vector F = (210N)i - (150N)j on the block. How much work does the force do on the block during displacement?

Answer: W = 4950J

Explanation: <u>Work</u> (W), in physics, is done when a force acts on an object that has a displacement form a place to another:

W = F · d

As the formula shows, Work is a scalar product, i.e, it results in a number, so, Work only has magnitude.

Force and displacement for the ice block are in 2 dimensions, then work will be:

W = (210)i - (150)j · (15)i - (12)j

W = (210*15) + (150*12)

W = 3150 + 1800

W = 4950J

During the displacement, the ice block has a work of 4950J

maxonik [38]
Lo experiences tidal heating primarily because lo’s elliptical orbit causes the tidal force on lo to vary as it orbits the Jupiter. Thus, lo’s elliptical orbit is essential to its tidal heating. This elliptical orbit, in turn, is an end result of the orbital resonance among lo, Europa and ganymade. This orbital resonance origin lo to have a more elliptical orbit than it would because lo intermittently passes Europa and ganymade in the same orbital position. We cannot perceive tidal forces of tidal heating in lo but rather we foresee that they must occur based on the orbital characteristic of the moons and active volcanoes on lo is the observational evidence that tidal heating is significant in lo.

The increase in potential energy of his mother if her mass is 56.0 kg will be 6031.97 J.

<h3>What is gravitational potential energy?</h3>

The energy that an item has due to its location in a gravitational field is known as gravitational potential energy.

The potential energy increases by 3773 J

PE₂-PE₁=mg(h₂-h₁)

3773 J = 35.0 × 9.81 × (h₂-h₁)

(h₂-h₁) = 10.98

Case 2 ;

ΔPE =?

ΔPE=mg(h₂-h₁)

ΔPE=56.0 × 9.81 ×10.98

ΔPE=6031.97 J.

Hence, the increase in potential energy of his mother if her mass is 56.0 kg will be 6031.97 J.
