A force in the +x-direction with magnitude F(x)=18.0N−(0.530N/m)x is applied to a 8.90 kg box that is sitting on the horizontal,
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

6.875 m/s

Explanation:

The force is variable which is given by

F(x) = 18 - 0.53 x

mass of the box, m = 8.9 kg

initially it is at rest at x = 0

Let the velocity is v after travelling a distance of 15 m.

According to the work energy theorem, the work done by all the forces is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the body.

Work done = change in kinetic energy

\int \overrightarrow{F}.d\overrightarrow{x}=\Delta  K.E

\int_{0}^{15} \left ( 18-0.53 x \right )dx=\frac{1}{2}\times m \left ( v^{2}-u^{2} \right )

\left ( 18x-0.265x^{2} \right )_{0}^{15}=\frac{1}{2}\times 8.9\times  \left ( v^{2}-0^{2} \right )

18 x 15 - 0.265 x 15 x 15 = 4.45 x v²

270 - 59.625 = 4.45 v²

v² = 47.275

v = 6.875 m/s

Thus, the final velocity of the box is 6.875 m/s.

Compare and contrast area and volume
katovenus [111]
Area is a region bounded by a CLOSED path, curved path or path with line segments.  Area is usually a two dimensional physical quantity, a designated part on a plane.  An example the surface of a table, face of a wall or a ceiling.  It can also be a surface in 3-dimensions.  Its units are meter² or centimeter² or feet²  etc. A large agricultural field is a good example of an area.  Normally and ideally no object can reside or exist with in an area. An object requires a volume.  It is a collection of all points enclosed or bounded by the boundary or closed path.  It does not have any thickness.

Volume is a 3-dimensional quantity. A physical body occupies space with its material components. It is the amount of space occupied, that is its volume. Any existing body occupying some space has a mass and volume.  A mass having a volume, has surface area and thickness, a height perpendicular to its surface at each point on the surface.
It is expressed as meter³, feet³ etc.
Volume is a product of surface area (cross-section) and length - for example for a wire or rod.
