A machine carries a 4.0 kgpackage from an initial position ofdi→=(0.50m)i^+(0.75m)j^+(0.20m)k^at t=0to a final position ofdf→=(7.50m)i^+(12.0m)j^+(7.20m)k^at t=12 s. The constant force applied by the machine on the package isF→=(2.00N)i^+(4.00N)j^+(6.00N)k^. For that displacement, find (a) the work done on the package by the machine’s force and (b) the average power of the machine’s force on the package.

  1. The work done by the machine’s force on the package is1.0×102J
  2. The average power ofthe machine’s force on the package is 8.4 W

Step by step solution

01

Given

di→=(0.50m)i^+(0.75m)j^+(0.20m)k^att=0df→=(7.50m)i^+(12.0m)j^+(7.20m)k^att=12sF→=(2.00N)i^+(4.00N)j^+(6.00N)k^

02

Concept

The work done on a particle by a constant force during its displacement is given asW=F→.d→

Only the component of the force that is along the displacement can dothework on the object. The power due to force istherate at whichtheforce does the work on the object.

Formula:

W=F→.d→

The dot product,

[ai^+bj^+ck^].[pi^+qj^+rk^]=(ap)+(bq)+(cr)Pavg=W∆t

03

Calculate the work done

The work done on a particle by a constant force during its displacement is given as

W=F→.d→

First, we determine the displacement

d→=df→-di→=(7.00m)i^+(11.25m)j^+(7.00m)k^

Then,

W=F→.d→W=(2.00N)i^+(4.00N)j^+(6.00N)k^.(7.00m)i^+(12.00m)j^+(7.25m)k^W=14J+45J+42J=101J=1.01×102J

Hence the work done by the machine’s force on the package is 1.01×102J.

04

Calculate the power

The power due to force istherate at whichtheforce does the work on the object.

Pavg=W∆t

Here

∆t=t2-t1=12s

So,

Pavg=W∆t=1.0×102J12s=8.4W

The work done by the machine’s force on the package is 1.0×102Jand the average power of the machine’s force on the package is 8.4W.

Table 1-7 shows some old measures of liquid volume. To complete the table, what numbers (to three significant figures) should be entered in (a) the wey column, (b) the chaldron column, (c) the bag column, (d) the pottle column, and (e) the gill column, starting from the top down? (f) The volume of 1 bag is equal to 0.1091 m3. If an old story has a witch cooking up some vile liquid in a cauldron of volume 1.5 chaldrons, what is the volume in cubic meters?

In the United States, a doll house has the scale of 1:12of a real house (that is, each length of the doll house is 112that of the real house) and a miniature house (a doll house to fit within a doll house) has the scale of 1:144of a real house. Suppose a real house (Fig. 1-7) has a front length of 20 m, a depth of 12 m, a height of 6.0 m, and a standard sloped roof (vertical triangular faces on the ends) of height 3.0 m. In cubic meters, what are the volumes of the corresponding (a) doll house and (b) miniature house?

Figure 1-7 Problem 32

The block in Fig. 7-10a lies on a horizontal frictionless surface, and the spring constant is 50N/m. Initially, the spring is at its relaxed length and the block is stationary at position x=0. Then an applied force with a constant magnitude of 3.0 N pulls the block in the positive direction of the x axis, stretching the spring until the block stops. When that stopping point is reached, what are (a) the position of the block, (b) the work that has been done on the block by the applied force, and (c) the work that has been done on the block by the spring force? During the block’s displacement, what are (d) the block’s position when its kinetic energy is maximum and (e) the value of that maximum kinetic energy?

Question: Harvard Bridge, which connects MIT with its fraternities across the Charles River, has a length of 364.4 Smoots plus one ear. The unit of one Smoot is based on the length of Oliver Reed Smoot, Jr., class of 1962, who was carried or dragged length by length across the bridge so that other pledge members of the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity could mark off (with paint) 1-Smoot lengths along the bridge. The marks have been repainted biannually by fraternity pledges since the initial measurement, usually during times of traffic congestion so that the police cannot easily interfere. (Presumably, the police were originally upset because the Smoot is not an SI base unit, but these days they seem to have accepted the unit.) Figure 1-4 shows three parallel paths, measured in Smoots (S), Willies (W), and Zeldas (Z). What is the length of 50.0 Smoots in (a) Willies and (b) Zeldas?
