Question
A truck pulls a sled loaded with different kinds of vegetables at a certain distance. Suppose the sled with the load had an initial speed of v1 = 3.72 m/s and the total mass of the sled with the load is m = 1,619 kilograms. If the total work done on the sled with the load is Wtot = 18,488.6 joules, what is its final speed? Hint: Use work-energy theorem.

- Example: A farmer hitches her tractor to a sled loaded with firewood and pulls it a distance of 20 m along level ground (Fig.). The total weight of sled and load is 14,700 N. The tractor exerts a constant 5000 N force at an angle 36.9° of above the horizontal. A 3500 N friction force opposes the sled's motion. Find the work done by each force acting on the sled and the total work done by all the forces.

You know that when you throw, you exert a force of 655 N on the ball (which has mass 1.84 kg), and that you do so for a distance of 0.27 m. If you start the throw from rest, what is the final speed of the ball? When you show your work for this question, you must do the calculations using work and energy for credit. If you use kinematics you will not recieve credit. Your Answer: units Answerarrow_forward
