Answer:
The work done by the force is  5.76 J
Explanation:
Given;
mass of canister , m = 3.2 kg
magnitude of force, f = 6.7 N
initial velocity of the canister on x-axis, Â [tex]v_i[/tex]= 3.3i m/s
final velocity of the canister on y- axis, [tex]v_f[/tex] = 6.9j m/s
The work done on the canister = change in the kinetic energy of the canister
[tex]W = K.E_f - K.E_i[/tex]
where;
K.Ei is the initial kinetic energy
K.Ef is the final kinetic energy
The initial kinetic energy:
[tex]K.E_i = \frac{1}{2} *m\sqrt{i^2 +j^2+z^2}\\\\K.E_i = \frac{1}{2} *3.2\sqrt{3.3^2 +0^2+0^2}\\\\K.E_i = 5.28 \ J[/tex]
The final kinetic energy:
[tex]K.E_f = \frac{1}{2} *m\sqrt{i^2 +j^2+z^2}\\\\K.E_f = \frac{1}{2} *3.2\sqrt{0^2 +6.9^2+0^2}\\\\K.E_f = 11.04 \ J\\[/tex]
W = 11.04 - 5.28
W = 5.76 J
Therefore, work done on the canister by the 6.7 N force during this time is 5.76 J
