Answer:
20 J
Explanation:
Given:
Weight of the book is,
Height or displacement of the book is,
The work done on the book to raise it to a height of 2 m on a shelf is against gravity. The gravitational force acting on the book is equal to its weight. Now, in order to raise it, an equal amount of force must be applied in the opposite direction.
So, the force applied by me should be equal to weight of the body and in the upward direction. The displacement is also in the upward direction.
Now, work done by the applied force is equal to the product of force applied and displacement of book in the direction of the applied force.
Therefore, work done is given as:
Therefore, the work done to raise a book to a height 2 m from the floor is 20 J.
Answer:
20 Joules
Explanation:
Work is done whenever a force moves a body through a certain distance in the direction of the force. So, work done is the product of force and distance moved.
Therefore, we have;
Work done = Force x distance
i.e Wd = Fs
Given that: F = 20 N and s = 1 m, then;
Wd = 20 N x 1 m
= 20 Nm
The work done by the father is 20 Joules(Nm).
Answer:
F₂= 210 pounds
Explanation:
Conceptual analysis
Hooke's law
Hooke's law establishes that the elongation (x) of a spring is directly proportional to the magnitude of force (F) applied to it, provided that said spring is not permanently deformed:
F= K*x Formula (1)
Where;
F is the magnitude of the force applied to the spring in Newtons (Pounds)
K is the elastic spring constant, which relates force and elongation. The higher its value, the more work it will cost to stretch the spring. (Pounds/inch)
x the elongation of the spring (inch)
Data
The data given is incorrect because if we apply them the answer would be illogical.
The correct data are as follows:
F₁ =80 pounds
x₁= 8 inches
x₂= 21 inches
Problem development
We replace data in formula 1 to calculate K :
F₁= K*x₁
K=( F₁) / (x₁)
K=( 80) / (8) = 10 pounds/ inche
We apply The formula 1 to calculate F₂
F₂= K*x₂
F₂= (10)*(21)
F₂= 210 pounds
The correct answer is letter A
Answer:
P = 1471500 [Pa]
Explanation:
We must remember that pressure is defined as the relationship between Force over the area.
where:
P = pressure [Pa] (units of pascals)
F = force [N] (units of Newtons)
A = area of contact = 4 [cm²]
But first we must convert from cm² to m²
A = 0.0004 [m²]
Also, the weight should be calculated as follows:
where:
m = mass = 60 [kg]
g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]
Now replacing:
And the pressure:
Because 1 [Pa] = 1 [N/m²]
