Answer:
Workdone = 2120 Joules.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Force applied = 100N
Angle = 32°
Distance = 25m
To find the workdone by Steve, we would first of all find the horizontal component of the force applied.
[tex] Horizontal force, Fx = mgCosd[/tex]
Where;
Fx represents the horizontal force.
m is the mass of an object.
g is the acceleration due to gravity.
d is the angle of inclination (theta).
mg = weight = 100N
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex] Fx = 100 * Cos32[/tex]
[tex] Fx = 100 * 0.8480[/tex]
Fx = 84.80N
Workdone is given by the formula;
[tex] Workdone = force * distance[/tex]
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex] Workdone = 84.80 * 25 [/tex]
Workdone = 2120 Joules.
