Answer:
η = 58.8%
Explanation:
Work is defined as the force applied by the distance traveled by the body.
where:
W = work [J] (units of joules)
F = force = 294 [N]
d = distance = 5 [m]
Efficiency is defined as the energy required to perform an activity in relation to the energy actually added to perform some activity. This can be better understood by means of the following equation.
The cart travelled a distance of 14.4 m
Explanation:
The work done by a force when pushing an object is given by:
where:
F is the magnitude of the force
d is the displacement
is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement
In this problem we have:
W = 157 J is the work done on the cart
F = 10.9 N is the magnitude of the force
, assuming the force is applied parallel to the motion of the cart
Therefore we can solve for d to find the distance travelled by the cart:
