Renatta Gas is out with her friends. Misfortune occurs and Renatta and her friends find themselfs getting a workout. Thay 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 on the car is [tex]2.35\cdot 10^5 J[/tex]

Explanation:

The work done by a force exerted 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 the displacement

In this problem, we have

F = 1080 N is the cumulative force applied on the car

d = 218 m is the displacement of the car

[tex]\theta=0^{\circ}[/tex] (assuming the force is applied in the same direction of motion of the car)

Substituting into the equation, we find the work done:

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