PRACTICE IT Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. An Eskimo returning from a successful fishing trip pulls a sled loaded with salmon. The total mass of the sled and salmon is 50.0 kg, and the Eskimo exerts a force of 1.30 x 10² N on the sled by pulling on the rope. (a) How much work does he do on the sled if the rope is horizontal to the ground (0 = 0° in the figure) and he pulls the sled 5.40 m? J (b) How much work does he do on the sled if 0 = 30.0° and he pulls the sled the same distance? (Treat the sled as a point particle, so details such as the point of attachment of the rope make no difference.) J (c) At a coordinate position of 5.40 m, the Eskimo lets up on the applied force. A friction force of 50.0 N between the ice and the sled brings the sled to rest at a coordinate position of 10.40 m. How much work does friction do on the sled?

Problem 1 A 5.0 kg box has an unknown initial velocity, Vo, when it runs into a light spring of force constant, k = 5000 N/m, and compresses the spring to a maximum distance of 5.0 cm. The kinetic coefficient of friction between the block and the surface is 0.25. Use the work-energy theorem to find the initial velocity of the block. Do not use conservation of mechanical energy to solve this problem. Show all work for full credit.

Use the values from PRACTICE IT to help you work this exercise. Find the horizontal distance travels before coming to rest if the incline also has a coefficient of kinetic friction equal to 0.226. Assume skier that 0 = 20.0°. What is the initial energy of the skier? How much work is done as the skier slides down the incline? How much work is done as the skier slides to a stop on the horizontal surface? In other words, write expressions for these three amounts…

Use the diagram to answer the questions A simple pendulum is suspended from the ceiling by means of a string of length 1.92 m. Assume that there is no friction or air resistance. Suppose you were to release the pendulum from rest, starting from an angle of 44.7 degrees with respect to the vertical, as shown.

DIRECTIONS: FILL IN THE BLANKS TO COMPLETE THE SOLUTION A falling package with a parachute is greatly affected by air resistance. Suppose a package (m = 25 kg), dropped from an altitude of y = 1500 m, hits the ground at a speed of v = 45 m/s. Calculate the work done by air resistance. By conservation of energy, the initial total mechanical energy is equal to the final total mechanical energy. Let K be the kinetic energy, U be the gravitational potential energy, and Wair be the work done by the drag force from air resistance. E1 = E2 K1 + U1 + Wair = K2 + U2 Some of the terms in the equation above are zero so it can be simplified to: ______ + Wair = ________ Isolating the work done by air resistance, we get: Wair = 1/2_____ - m_____ Plugging in the values given, the work done by air resistance is: Wair = _______kJ

Learning Target IA3: I can set up and use integrals to solve applied work problems. 1. Note that Hooke's Law applies for compressing a spring, also. A spring supporting a railroad car has a natural length of 12 inches, and a force of 8000 pounds compresses it only inch. Find the work done compressing it from 12 to 9 inches. Hint: The answer is 6000 foot-pounds. Now show all the work to get there, and don't forget to convert from inch-pounds to foot-pounds.
