Two forces, of magnitudes F1 = 65.0 N and F2 = 35.0 NN, act in opposite directions on a block, which sits atop a frictionless surface. Initially, the center of the block is at position xi = -6.00 cm. At some later time, the block has moved to the right, and its center is at a new position, xf = 3.00 cm.
-
Find the work W1 done on the block by the force of magnitude F1 = 65.0 NN as the block moves from xi = -6.00 cm to xf = 3.00 cm. Express your answer numerically, in joules.
- Find the work W2 done by the force of magnitude F2 = 35.0 NN as the block moves from xi = -6.00 cm to xf = 3.00 cm. Express your answer numerically, in joules.

- Bob 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_forwardA 1.3Kg particle moves from an initial position r1=2i-1j+2k m to a final position r2=6i-4j-4k m while a force F=4i-5j+4k N acts on it.

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the incline is μk = 0.436. (a) Determine the work done by the force of gravity. J(b) Determine the work done by the friction force between block and incline. J(c) Determine the work done by the normal force. J(d) Qualitatively, how would the answers change if a shorter ramp at a steeper angle were used to span the same vertical height?arrow_forward
- A 12.0 kg box is given an initial push that starts it sliding across the floor. It eventually comes to a stop. If the box has an initial velocity of 3.5 m/s, how much work is done by friction to cause it to come to a stop? (Yes, you are correct, you do not know the coefficient of friction.)arrow_forwardThe figure here shows an overhead view of three horizontal forces acting on a cargo canister that was initially stationary but that now moves across a frictionless floor. The force magnitudes are F₁ = 2.80 N, F₂ = 3.60 N, and F3 = 10.0 N, and the indicated angles are 0₂ = 52.0° and 03 = 32.0 ˚. What is the net work done on the canister by the three forces during the first 4.00 m of displacement? 15 15 Number 03 F F3 Unitarrow_forwardA 7.00-kg package slides 2.50 m down a long ramp that is inclined at 24.0 below the horizontal.
