  2. PHYSICS 3.0 m Problem #1 A student holds her physics textbook, which has a mass of 1.50 kg from the second floor which is 3.0 m from the ground. She then drops it. • How much work is done on the book by the student in simply holding it? • How much work will have been done by the force of gravity during • the time the book falls 3.0 m? • A known mass held, then dropped; • determine a) Wst and b) Wgr • Given: m = 1.50 kg, and h = 3.0 m; • Find: Wstand Wgr 3) Work / gravity RMc

  3. PHYSICS -3.0 m mg Problem #1 4-5) a) Net work on the book by student: Since the book does not move, there is no displacement and therefore, no work done. Work = Fd cos(q) Wst = F(0) cos(q) = 0.0 J b) Net work on the book by force of gravity: While the book is falling, the Net force is equal to the weight (mg). Work = Fd cos(q) Wgr = (1.50kg)(-9.81m/s2)(-3.0m)cos(0) = +44 J RMc

  4. 90.0 N 40.0 Problem #2 If a person pushes on the lawn mower with a constant force of 90.0 N at an angle of 40.0 to the horizontal: How much work does he do in pushing it a horizontal distance of 7.50 m? • A constant force at angle • thru distance; determine Wh • Given: F = 90.0 N, and q = 40.0; • d = 7.50 m • Find: Wh 3) Work / horizontal RMc

  5. 40.0 F cos(q) = Fh 90.0 N 7.50 m 40.0 Problem #2 4-5) Net work on the mower by person: The force vector and the displacement vector must be parallel for work to be done. Work = Fd cos(q) Fh = (90.0N)(cos 40.0) Fh = 68.94 N Wh = (68.94N)(7.50m) = +517 J RMc

  6. y mg cos(q) q x N Ff mg sin(q) q mg 1.20 m Problem #3 A 0.75 kg block slides down a 20.0 inclined plane with a uniform velocity. The horizontal length of the incline is 1.20 m. a) How much work is done by the force of friction on the block as it slides the total length of the incline? b) What is the net work done on the block? • Box slides at constant velocity against friction; • determine Wf , and Wnet • Given: m = 0.75 kg, and • q = 20.0;L = 1.20 m • Find: Wf and Wnet 3) Work / incline-friction RMc

  7. y N x mg cos(q) Ff mg sin(q) Problem #3 Only two forces do work because there are only two forces parallel to the motion. 4-5) a) Net forces parallel to the motion: The force of kinetic friction Ff and the weight component down the incline mg sin(q). Work done by the frictional force: Ff = mN W = mNd(-1) W = Ffd cos(q) =Ffd cos(180) =Ffd (-1) Ff = mg sin (q) from uniform motion N = mgcos(q) from diagram RMc

  8. d q L from right triangle incline W = -tan(q)mgcos(q) Problem #3 N = mgcos(q) from diagram W = mNd(-1) Therefore: W = -tan(20.0)mgL = -(.3639)(0.75kg)(9.81m/s2)(1.20m) W = -3.21 J RMc

  9. y x Ff mg sin(q) Problem #3 4-5) b) Net forces parallel to the motion: Since the force of kinetic friction Ff is equal to weight component down the incline mg sin(q), the net force is equal to zero. The Net work done: Wnet = Fnetd cos(q) Wnet = (0)d cos(q) Wnet=0.0 J RMc
