Answer:

The work done is 360 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 50 kg

Distance =3 m

We need to calculate the work done

The work done is equal to the product of force and displacement.

Using formula of work done

W = F\cdot d

W = Fd\cos\theta

Where, F = force

D = distance

θ = Angle between force and displacement

Put the value into the formula

W=120\times3\cos0^{\circ}

W=360\ J

Hence, The work done is 360 J.

Consider a box sitting in the back of a pickup. The pickup accelerates to the right, and because the bed of the pickup is sticky
Marina86 [1]
The pickup accelerates towards right. The box is sticky to the pickup, thus its acceleration is the same, towards right. Its inertia (force) is oposing the acceleration, thus it is towards left. For the box not to move, it is necessary that the truck acts on it with a force towards right. (The two forces of the truck on box and the box inertia (force) equilibrate themselves).

In Paul Hewitt's book, he poses this question: "If the forces that act on a bullet and the recoiling gun from which it is fired
Sauron [17]
They have different accelerations because of their masses. According to Newton's Second Law, an objects acceleration is inversely proportional to its mass. Therefore the object with the larger mass, in this case the gun, will have a smaller acceleration. In the same way, the less massive object, being the bullet, will have a higher acceleration.

Hope this helps :)
