W = _|....F*dx*cos(a)........With F=force, x=distance over which force acts on object,
.......0.............................and a=angle between force and direction of travel.
Since the force is constant in this case we don't need the equation to be an integral expression, and since the force in question - the force of friction - is always precisely opposite the direction of travel (which makes (a) equal to 180 deg, and cos(a) equal to -1) the equation can be rewritted like so:
W = F*x*(-1) ............ or ............. W = -F*x
The force of friction is given by the equation: Ffriction = Fnormal*(coeff of friction)
Also, note that the total work is the sum of all 45 passes by the sandpaper. So our final equation, when Ffriction is substituted, is:
W = (-45)(Fnormal)(coeff of friction)(distance)
W = (-45)...(1.8N).........(0.92).........(0.15m)
W = ................-11.178 Joules
The average speed of a moving body is given by:
average speed = total distance / total time
average speed = 560 / 25
22.4 meters per second
The skier is traveling at an average velocity of 22.4 meters per second.
According to the Work-Energy Theorem, the work done on an object is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the object:
Since the car ends with a kinetic energy of 0J (because it stops), then the work needed to stop the car is equal to the initial kinetic energy of the car:
Replace m=1100kg and v=112km/h. Write the speed in m/s. Remember that 1m/s = 3.6km/h:
Therefore, the answer is: 532,346 J.
Answer:
c) The slope is not constant and increases with increasing time.
Explanation:
The equation for the position of this particle (starting from rest is)
We can take derivative of this with respect to time t to get the equation of slope:
As time t increase, the slope would increases with time as well.
