A 2-kg wood block is pulled by a string across a rough horizontal floor. The string exerts a tension force of 30 N on the block

Luden [163]

Answer:

Work done, W = 84.57 Joules

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the wooden block, m = 2 kg

Tension force acting on the string, F = 30 N

Angle made by the block with the horizontal, $\theta=20^{\circ}$

Distance covered by the block, d = 3 m

Let W is the work done by the tension force. It can be calculated as :

$W=F\ cos\theta\times d$

$W=30\times cos(20)\times 3$

W = 84.57 Joules

So, the work done by the tension force is 84.57 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

An inclined plane is made out of a short plank of wood. It is used to move a 300N box up onto a tabletop 1m above the floor. Wha

Ronch [10]

Answer:

<em>The purpose of an inclinded plane is to make easier to move objects to a certain height.</em>

The technology behind this is about the Work you need to use to move the object upwards. Basically, when we use an inclined plane, we are splitting the net force, making easier to move. All this means, the force needed to move the objecto up will be lower, due to the inclined plane.

So, if the force needed is lower, then the work is also lower, because the work done is defined as the product between the force applied and the distance traveled.

<em>In addition, if we have a longer inclined plane, that means the force needed is even lower,</em> beacuse the distance is increased, but the Work is the same, because it only depends on the initial and final point.

Therefore, in this case, the work would remain the same and the mechanical advantage would increase. As we said before, the work needed will be the same despite the force decreases, because the distance increases, remaining the work as a constant. And the mechanical advantage increases, because it's easier to move if the inclined plane is longer.
