A 20 kg box has an initial velocity of 2 m/s starting at the bottom of a 30-degree inclined plane. A person pushes on the box di

rectly up the frictionless inclined plane so that it travels up the inclined plane at a constant velocity of 2 m/s. Calculate the how much is done by the person after 5 seconds have past.

Answer:

Explanation:

The box is moving with constant velocity so acceleration of box is zero . That means net force on the box is zero .

The weight component acting on box parallel to incline plane

= mg sin 30⁰ = 20 x 9.8 x sin 30 = 98 N

This force is acting down the plane , hence to make the net force zero acting on box , force exerted by person will also be 98 N up the incline .

Force exerted by person = 98 N

distance travelled in 5 s

= velocity x time

= 2 x 5 = 10 m

Work done by person

= 98 x 10

= 980 J .

Ghella [55]

Answer : B.  0 m/s∧2

Now we know that velocity = distance/ time

And acceleration = velocity/time.


From the graph we see that at the time interval 2 secs,the distance travelled is 10 m. Hence the velocity(v1) =10/2 = 5m/s.

From the graph we see that at the time interval 5 secs,the distance travelled is 25 m. Hence the velocity (v2) =25/5 = 5m/s.

Now acceleceration between the time interval of 2 ad 5 secs is calculated as

(v1-v2)/t2-t1 = (5-5)/(5-2) = 0 m/s∧2

Burka [1]
The structure and curvature of the Earth results in beams of sunlight glancing off the equator and reaching other areas of the Earth. This means that the areas at the equator receive more energy as sun's rays hit them directly.
