Why caring a body and moving with it is not a work done Why :​

Physics
1 answer:
Alecsey [184]2 years ago

Answer:

Work done on an object is equal to

FDcos(angle).

So, naturally, if you lift a book from the floor on top of the table you do work on it since you are applying a force through a distance.

However, I often see the example of carrying a book through a horizontal distance is not work. The reasoning given is this: The force you apply is in the vertical distance, countering gravity and thus not in the direction of motion.

But surely you must be applying a force (and thus work) in the horizontal direction as the book would stop due to air friction if not for your fingers?

Is applying a force through a distance only work if causes an acceleration? That wouldn't make sense in my mind. If you are dragging a sled through snow, you are still doing work on it, since the force is in the direction of motion. This goes even if velocity is constant due to friction.

a 2.35 water bucket is swung in a full cirlce of radius 0.824 m just fast enough so that the water doesn't fall out the top mean
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

2.84 m/s

Explanation:

At the top position of the circular trajectory, the normal reaction is zero:

N = 0

So it means that the only force that is providing the centripetal force is the gravitational force (the weight of the bucket). Therefore we have:

mg = m \frac{v^2}{r}

where

m is the mass of the water bucket

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

v is the speed of the bucket

r = 0.824 m is the radius of the circle

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{gr}=\sqrt{(9.8 m/s^2)(0.824 m)}=2.84 m/s

how long does it take adrian to reach his destination if his displacement is 253 meters and he walks north with a velocity of 1.
klemol [59]
Velocity = displacement/time

1.6 = 253/t

t = 158.125

It takes them about 158 seconds

Select the correct term to complete each sentence. If you the wavelength, the electromagnetic radiation energy will double. The
Andrews [41]

Answer:

A) If you halve the wavelength, the electromagnetic radiation energy will double.

B) The energy of the electromagnetic radiation will halve if you halve the wavenumber.

C) When the frequency of the light is doubled, its energy will double.

Explanation:

The function for the light frequency is given as

The energy supplied to each electron is doubled by halving the wavelength, nearly doubling its kinetic energy by two after it is free from the metal. It is important to remember that for a given period of time, the number of electrons ejected will remain constant.

Cheers
