calculate the work done when: a) a 55 N force acting at an angle of 28 degrees to the horizontal pushes an object 5m horizontally. b) a spring of spring constant 45n/m is stretched by 32cm.
a) Lets, F=force= 55 N
D= object distance horizontally = 5 m
and = angle of horizontal pushes = 280
we know the theory of work for horizontal pushes is W,
J
Calculate the work done a 55 N force acting at an angle of 28 degrees to the horizontal pushes an object 5 m horizontally is =242.81 J or 242.81 kg.m2 /s2
b) a spring of spring constant, K = 45 N/m
x=stretched displacement =32 cm
= 0.32 m
we know that the potential energy, equal to the work done to stretch the spring,
So, work done= PE=potential energy
The work =2.304 J , when a spring of spring constant 45n/m is stretched by 32 cm.
