Ruby is out with her friends. Misfortune occurs and
Ruby and her friends find themselves getting
a workout. They apply a cumulative force of 1080 N
to push the car 218 m to the nearest fuel station.
Determine the work done on the car.

Respuesta :

The work done is [tex]2.35\cdot 10^5 J[/tex]

Explanation:

The work done by a force on an object is given by:

[tex]W=Fd cos \theta[/tex]

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement of the object

[tex]\theta[/tex] is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

In this problem, we have

F = 1080 N is the force applied on the car

d = 218 m is the displacement of the car

And assuming the force is applied parallel to the motion of the car, [tex]\theta=0^{\circ}[/tex], and so the work done is

[tex]W=(1080)(218)(cos 0^{\circ})=2.35\cdot 10^5 J[/tex]
