You are pulling a child in a wagon. The rope handle is inclined upward at a 60∘ angle. The tension in the handle is 20 N.
Part A
How much work does the rope do on the wagon if you pull the wagon 200 m at a constant speed?

Respuesta :

  • Angle (θ) = 60°
  • Force (F) = 20 N
  • Distance (s) = 200 m
  • Therefore, work done
  • = Fs Cos θ
  • = (20 × 200 × Cos 60°) J
  • = (20 × 200 × 1/2) J
  • = (20 × 100) J
  • = 2000 J

Answer:

2000 J

Hope you could get an idea from here.

S O L U T I O N:

Here we've been provided with the information i.e

  • Force (F) = 20N

  • Distance (s) = 200m

  • Angle (θ) = 60°

Ans we have given to find out what is work done (W) = ?

The standard formula to calculate work done is given by,

[tex]:\implies\sf{w = f \times s \times cos \theta}[/tex]

[tex]:\implies\sf{w = 20 \times 200 \times cos60}[/tex]

[tex]:\implies\sf{w = 20 \times 200 \times \frac{1}{2} }[/tex]

[tex]:\implies\sf{w = 20 \times 100 \times 1}[/tex]

[tex]:\implies\sf{w = 2000J}[/tex]

  • Total work done done by rope is 2000J.
