- . A 20 meter long ramp is used to move a box weighing 1200N into a truck that is 5 meters off the ground. It only takes you 390 N to push the box up the ramp. Calculate the efficiency of the inclined plane.arrow_forward10. A tow truck pulls a car by a cable that makes an angle of 30 to the horizontal. The force applied to the tow cable is 7.2 x 10³ N. How much work is done in pulling the car horizontally 5.5 km? F 30 appliedarrow_forward3. A force of 10 N is applied to a small cart for a distance of 2.0 m. (a) What work is done on the cart? (b) Assuming there are no frictional losses, what final kinetic energy does the force transfer to the cart? (c) If the mass of the cart is 10 kg, what is the final speed of the cart?arrow_forward

The ramp can be viewed as a "machine" where the useful output is the potential energy gain of the box and the input is the physical work done by the person doing the pushing. (a) Determine the efficiency of the ramp. (b) Determine the ratio of the force needed to lift the box without the ramp to the force needed to push it along the ramp (this is called the mechanical advantage).arrow_forwardA 1500kg car is travelling with an initial velocity of 30.0 km/h while traveling through a school zone. Upon exiting the school zone the car accelerates to reach a speed of 65.0 km/h in 6.60 s. If the engine supplied 45.0 kW of power to do this, what is the efficiency of the engine?arrow_forward4. An engine that worked for 46 s consumed E = 23,500 J and lifted a in 75 kg body from the ground to a height of 21 m above the ground.arrow_forward
- 1. A box with a mass of 3.0 kg is accelerated from rest by a constant force across a floor at a rate of 1.7 m/s for 6.5 s. (a) How much work does the force do on the box?

How high was the book lifted? 1b.The book from problem 1 is then allowed to slide down a straight ramp which makesa 26.0o angle above the horizontal, and the book reaches its original position at the endof this ramp. How fast would it be going if there was no friction?arrow_forward
