A shopper in a supermarket pushes a cart with a force of 33.0 N directed at an angle of 25.0° below the horizontal. The force is just sufficient to balance various friction forces, so the cart moves at constant speed. Find the work done by the shopper on the cart as she moves down a 54.2-m-long aisle. The shopper goes down the next aisle, pushing horizontally and maintaining the same speed as before. If the work done by frictional forces doesn't change, would the shopper's applied force be larger, smaller, or the same? What about the work done on the cart by the shopper? Is the work larger in part a, or is the work larger in part b; or is the work the same in both parts?

A shopper in a supermarket pushes a cart with a force of 41 N directed at an angle of 25° below the horizontal. The force is just sufficient to overcome various frictional forces, so the cart moves at constant speed. (a) Find the work done by the shopper as she moves down a 42.0-m length aisle. Your response is within 10% of the correct value. This may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. Carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error. J (b) What is the net work done on the cart? Why? This answer has not been graded yet. (c) The shopper goes down the next aisle, pushing horizontally and maintaining the same speed as before. If the work done by frictional forces doesn't change, would the shopper's applied force be larger, smaller, or the same? What about the work done on the cart by the shopper? This answer has not been graded yet.

Suppose the ski patrol lowers a rescue sled and victim, having a total mass of 90.0 kg, down a ? = 62.0° slope at constant speed, as shown in the figure. How much work is done (in J) by friction as the sled moves 30.0 m along the hill? How much work is done (in J) by the rope on the sled in this distance? What is the work done (in J) by gravity on the sled? What is the total work done (in J)?

A man cleaning his apartment pushes a vacuum cleaner with a force of magnitude 35.8 N. The force makes an angle of 34.5 with the horizontal floor. The vacuum cleaner is pushed 3.76 m to the right along the floor. Calculate the work done by the 35.8 N force. Answer in units of J.
