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.

A skier is pulled by a towrope up a frictionless ski slope that makes an angle of12°with the horizontal. The rope moves parallel to the slope with a constant speed of 1.0m/s. The force of the rope does 900Jof work on the skier as the skier moves a distance of 8.0mup the incline. (a) If the rope moved with a constant speed of 2.0m/s, how much work would the force of the rope do on the skier as the skier moved a distance of 8.0mup the incline? At what rate is the force of the rope doing work on the skier when the rope moves with a speed of (b)1.0m/sand (c)2.0m/s?

You receive orders to sail due east for 24.5mi to put your salvage ship directly over a sunken pirate ship. However, when your divers probe the ocean floor at that location and find no evidence of a ship, you radio back to your source of information, only to discover that the sailing distance was supposed to be 24.5nauticalmiles, not regular miles. Use the Length table in Appendix D to calculate how far horizontally you are from the pirate ship in kilometers.
