Explanation:

∆x=300 m×2

∆t=1.5 s

v=∆x/∆t → v=2×300/1.5 = 400 m/s

Q2. You push a crate up a ramp with a force of 10 N. Despite your pushing, the crate slides down the ramp 4 m. How much work did

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

40 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Force (F) = 10 N

Distance (s) = 4 m

Workdone (Wd) =?

Work done is simply defined as the product of force and distance moved in the direction of the force. Mathematically, we can express the Workdone as:

Workdone = force × distance

Wd = F × s

With the above formula, we can obtain the workdone as follow:

Force (F) = 10 N

Distance (s) = 4 m

Workdone (Wd) =?

Wd = F × s

Wd = 10 × 4

Wd = 40 J

Thus, 40 J of work was done.

A man does 4,475 J of work in the process of pushing his 2.50 103 kg truck from rest to a speed of v, over a distance of 26.0 m.

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

a) 1.89 m/s b) 172.1 N

Explanation:

a)

Applying the work-energy theorem, if we can neglect the friction between truck and road, the total change in kinetic energy must be equal to the work done by the external forces.
This work, is just 4,475 J.
So we can write the following equation:

$\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m*v^{2} = 4,475 J$

where m= mass of the truck = 2.5*10³ kg.
So, we can find the speed v, as follows:

$v =\sqrt{\frac{2*W}{m}} =\sqrt{\frac{2*4,475J}{2.5e3kg} } = 1.89 m/s$

b)

The work done by the man, is just the horizontal force applied, times the displacement produced by the force horizontally:

$W = F*d$

We can solve for F, as follows:

$F = \frac{W}{d} = \frac{4,475 J}{26.0m} = 172.1 N$

If the forces acting on an object are balanced, wihat must be true about the motion of this object?

wolverine [178]

The correct answer to the question is : D) Be moving at a constant velocity.

EXPLANATION:

As per Newton's first laws of motion, every body continues to be at state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless and until it is compelled by some external unbalanced forces acting on it.

Hence, it is the unbalanced force which changes the state of rest or motion of a body. Balanced force is responsible for keeping the body to be either in static equilibrium or in dynamic equilibrium.

As per the options given in the question, the last one is true for an object under balanced forces.
