- Consider the forces involved in doing push-ups. The woman’s weight acts as a force exerted downward on her center of gravity (marked CG in the figure). You may assume that the angle between her body and the floor is small enough so that the small angle approximation is valid throughout this motion.Calculate the force, in newtons, the woman in the figure exerts to do a pushup at constant speed. How much work, in joules, does she do if her center of mass rises 0.23 m? What is her useful power output, in watts, if she does 29 push-ups in 1 min? Ignore any work done during the downward motion.arrow_forwardAn arctic tractor drags a 45 ton (that's metric ton: 1 ton = 1000 kg) across the snow, which has a friction coefficient of 0.075, a distance of 4500 kilometers.

The pulling force has a magnitude of 68.0 N. Ignore the friction for now. If the total work done by the pulling force is 255 J, then how far has the block traveled? Hints on solving strategy: Remember from Flipping Physics that work is measured in Joules (J). You'll need to use the formula Mr. P gives for calculating the work done by a force over a given displacement.arrow_forward
