Explain your answer. с. kinetic FORCE (N)arrow_forwardmike used his super muscle power to pull a box initially at rest, up an inclined plane. The inclined plane makes an angle of 35o with the horizontal and mike applied a force of 250 N parallel to the incline. The mass of the box is 25.0 kg and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the surface is 0.45. The box moves up the incline at a distance of 5.0 m. Find the work done by the applied force. g = 9.81 m/s2arrow_forwardCalculate the work done (in J) by an 80.0 kg man who pushes a crate 3.65 m up along a ramp that makes an angle of 20.0° with the horizontal. (See the figure below.) He exerts a force of 550 N on the crate parallel to the ramp and moves at a constant speed. Be certain to include the work he does on the crate and on his body to get up the ramp. Farrow_forward
- Which do you think requires more work: moving up stairs at a slow speed (ex: walking) or moving up stairs at a fast speed (ex: running)? Explain your prediction with reference to the work equation and some past experience.arrow_forwardA spring has a natural length of 4 m. It requires 252 J of work to stretch the spring to 10 m. Calculate the work required to stretch the spring from 8 m to 9 m. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth if necessary. Provide your answer below: W = Jarrow_forwardQuestion 1 The first question does not require the coefficient of friction. Doesn't all the work being performed by the system = friction? Friction is the only thing that is performing work?arrow_forward
- How do you know if the work done by a force acting on an object is positive or negative? Hint: Work is a scalar but both force and displacement are vectors.arrow_forwardA woman at the gym lifts a weight upwards. a) Does she do positive work on the weight, negative work on the weight, or no work on the weight? Explain how you know. b) Does the Earth (i.e. the force of gravity) do positive work on the weight, negative work on the weight, or no work on the weight? Explain how you know.arrow_forwardPls Helparrow_forward
- For a constant force, work is defined as the: Cross product between the force and the displacement. O Magnitude of the force multiplied by the distance travelled.

The friction force on the box is 75.0 N. During this process, what is the work done on the cabinet by its own weight, in Joule? Use g = 10.0 m/s2. Your answer needs to have 3 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.arrow_forwardA 65.0-kg file cabinet of is sliding down a rough ramp for a distance of 5.00 m as shown.
