A :-) F = ma
Given - m = 95 kg
a = 2.2 m/s^2
Solution -
F = ma
F = 95 x 2.2
F = 209
.:. The force is 209 N
Answer:
1977.696 J
Explanation:
Given;
Weight of the box = 28.0 kg
Force applied by the boy = 230 N
angle between the horizontal and the force = 35°
Therefore,
the horizontal component of the force = 230 × cosθ
= 230 × cos 35°
= 188.405 N
Coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.24
Force by friction, f = μN
here,
N = Normal force = Mass × acceleration due to gravity
or
N = 28 × 9.81 = 274.68 N
therefore,
f = 0.24 × 274.68
or
f = 65.9232 N
Now,
work done by the boy, W₁ = 188.405 N × Displacement
= 188.405 N × 30
= 5652.15 J
and,
the
work done by the friction, W₂ = - 65.9232 N × Displacement
= - 65.9232 N × 30 m
= - 1977.696 J
[ since the friction force acts opposite to the direction of motion, therefore the workdone will be negative]
