Question
Fluffy has just caught a mouse, and decides that the only decent thing to do is to bring it to the bedroom so that his human roommate can admire it when she wakes up. A constant horizontal force of 3.30 N is enough to drag the mouse across the rug at a constant speed v. If Fluffy's force does work at the rate of 6.30 W, what is her speed, v?
How much work does Fluffy do in 4.50 s ?

While the flea is pushing off from the ground, the ground exerts an average upward force of 0.35 N on it. This force does 2.7x10-4 J of work on the flea.

The ramp makes an angle of 0 = 53.3° up from the horizontal. Which forces do nonzero work on the block as it slides down the ramp? ☐ gravity How much total work Wnet has been done on the block after it slides down along the ramp a distance of 1.87 m? Nancy measures the speed of the wooden block after it has gone the 1.87 m down the ramp. Predict what speed u she should measure. Now, Steven again places the wooden block back at the top of the ramp, but this time he jokingly gives the block a big push before it slides down the ramp. If the block's initial speed is 2.00 m/s and the block again slides down the ramp 1.87 m, what should Nancy measure for the speed v of the block this time? ☐ spring friction normal J Wnet = v = m/s v = m/sarrow_forwardA constant force F = (8î + 5ĵ + 3k) N acts on object .
