It would not. Imagine four forces equal in magnitude but opposite in direction (e.g. north, east, south, and west). If these forces were to double in magnitude they would still have the same magnitude, meaning the net force is still equal to zero.

A constant force of 45 N directed at angle θ to the horizontal pulls a crate of weight 100 N from one end of a room to another a
Rasek [7]

Answer:

W=173.48J

Explanation:

information we know:

Total force: F=45N

Weight: w=100N

distance: 4m

vertical component of the force: F_{y}=12N

-------------

In this case we need the formulas to calculate the components of the force (because to calculate the work we need the horizontal component of the force).

horizontal component: F_{x}=Fcos\theta

vertical component: F_{y}=Fsen\theta

but from the given information we know that F_{y}=12N

so, equation these two F_{y}=Fsen\theta and F_{y}=12N

Fsen\theta =12N

and we know the force F=45N, thus:

45sen\theta=12

now we clear for \theta

sen\theta =12/45\\\theta=sin^{-1}(12/45)\\\theta =15.466

the angle to the horizontal is 15.466°, with this information we can calculate the horizontal component of the force:

F_{x}=Fcos\theta

F_{x}=45cos(15.466)\\F_{x}=43.37N

whith this horizontal component we calculate the work to move the crate a distance of 4 m:

W=F_{x}*D\\W=(43.37N)(4m)\\W=173.48J

the work done is W=173.48J

Mamont248 [21]

Solution

distance travelled by Chris

\Delta t=\frac{1}{3600}hr.

X_{c}= [(\frac{21+0}{2})+(\frac{33+21}{2})+(\frac{55+47}{2})+(\frac{63+55}{2})+(\frac{70+63}{2})+(\frac{76+70}{2})+(\frac{82+76}{2})+(\frac{87+82}{2})+(\frac{91+87}{2})]\times\frac{1}{3600}

=\frac{579.5}{3600}=0.161miles

Kelly,

\Delta t=\frac{1}{3600}hr.

X_{k}=[(\frac{24+0}{2})+(\frac{3+24}{2})+(\frac{55+39}{2})+(\frac{62+55}{2})+(\frac{71+62}{2})+(\frac{79+71}{2})+(\frac{85+79}{2})+(\frac{85+92}{2})+(\frac{99+92}{2})+(\frac{103+99}{2})]\times\frac{1}{3600}

=\frac{657.5}{3600}

\Delta X=X_{k}-X_{C}=0.021miles
