Question
Three clowns move a 285 kg crate 10.5 m to the right across a smooth floor. Take the positive horizontal and vertical directions to be right and up, respectively. Moe pushes to the right with a force of 555 N , Larry pushes to the left with 325 N , and Curly pushes straight down with 505 N . Calculate the work ? done by each of the clowns. Assume friction is negligible.
?Moe= J
?Larry= J
?Curly= J

A cart is pulled a distance D on a flat, horizontal surface by a constant force F that actsat an angle θ with the horizontal direction. The other forces on the object during thistime are gravity (Fw), normal forces (FN1) and (FN2), and rolling frictions Fr1 and Fr2,as shown below. What is the work done by each force?arrow_forwardA worker pushes a wheelbarrow with a horizontal force of 50 N on level ground over a distance of 5.0 m.

- A student, starting from rest, slides down a water slide. On the way down, a kinetic frictional force (a nonconservative force) acts on her. The student has a mass of 66 kg, and the height of the water slide is 11.1 m. If the kinetic frictional force does -6.4 × 103 J of work, how fast is the student going at the bottom of the slide? vf = Type your answer here Choose your answer herearrow_forwardA man pushes a 85.9-N crate a distance of 3.7 m up a long frictionless ramp at a constant speed. His pushing force is parallel to the ramp. The ramp makes a 30.0-degree angle with the horizontal. What is the work done by the man in pushing the crate?

- The spring-flex exercise system consists of a spring with one end fixed and a handle on the other end. The idea is that you exercise your muscles by stretching the spring from its natural length, which is 38 cm. If a 170 Newton force is required to keep the spring stretched to a length of 52 cm, how much work is required to stretch it from 51 cm to 70 cm? Your answer must include the correct units. Work =arrow_forwardBob is pulling a box of his toys of mass 15.0 kg along a rough horizontal surface for a distance of 6.00 m. The tension force in the rope is 58.0 N and the angle is 30° with respect to the horizontal. The frictional force on the box is 12.0 N. How much work is done on the box by the normal force, 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_forwardhelparrow_forward
