Answer:
D) 735 J(oules)
Explanation:
Work is defined as force * distance
Force is defined as mass * acceleration
Given a mass of 15 kg and a gravitational acceleration of 9.8 m/s² since the box is being lifted up, the force being applied to the box is 15 kg * 9.8 m/s² = 147 N
Since the distance is 5 meters, the work done is 147 N * 5 m = 735 N/m = 735 J, making D the correct answer.
distance from the Sun of 2.77 astronomical units or about 414 million km 257 million miles and orbiting period of 4.62 years
Answer:
μ = 0.37
Explanation:
For this exercise we must use the translational and rotational equilibrium equations.
We set our reference system at the highest point of the ladder where it touches the vertical wall. We assume that counterclockwise rotation is positive
let's write the rotational equilibrium
W₁ x/2 + W₂ x₂ - fr y = 0
where W₁ is the weight of the mass ladder m₁ = 30kg, W₂ is the weight of the man 700 N, let's use trigonometry to find the distances
cos 60 = x / L
where L is the length of the ladder
x = L cos 60
sin 60 = y / L
y = L sin60
the horizontal distance of man is
cos 60 = x2 / 7.0
x2 = 7 cos 60
we substitute
m₁ g L cos 60/2 + W₂ 7 cos 60 - fr L sin60 = 0
fr = (m1 g L cos 60/2 + W2 7 cos 60) / L sin 60
let's calculate
fr = (30 9.8 10 cos 60 2 + 700 7 cos 60) / (10 sin 60)
fr = (735 + 2450) / 8.66
fr = 367.78 N
the friction force has the expression
fr = μ N
write the translational equilibrium equation
N - W₁ -W₂ = 0
N = m₁ g + W₂
N = 30 9.8 + 700
N = 994 N
we clear the friction force from the eucacion
μ = fr / N
μ = 367.78 / 994
μ = 0.37
