Answer: a) 49.560 and 21.13 b) i) 50 N, ii) 196 N iii) 196 N iv) 47.685 N
c) i) 594.72 ii) 0 iii) 0 iv) 0
d) 594.72
Explanation: question a)
The force is inclined at an angle of 25° to the horizontal
The horizontal component of force = 50 cos 25° = 49.560 N
The vertical component of force = 50 sin 30°= 21.130N
Question b)
i) according to the question applied force is 50 N
ii) if g = 9.8m/s², w=mg where m = mass of object = 20kg hence weight = 20* 9.8 = 196 N
iii) the normal force is the force the floor exerts on the body as a result of the weight of the object.
Normal reaction R = W = mg, we already deduced that w = mg, hence R = 196 N.
iv) according to newton's laws of motion
F - Fr = ma
F = applied force = horizontal component of force = 49.560 N.
We need to get the acceleration (a) by using Newton laws of motion before we can be able to compute the frictional force..
The body started from rest hence initial velocity u = 0
Final velocity v = 1.5m/s distance covered (s) = 12m
v ² = u² + 2as
But u = 0
v² = 2as
1.5² = 2(a) * 12
2.25 = 24a
a = 2.25/24 = 0.09735m/s²
From F - Fr = ma
49.560 - Fr = 20 * 0.09735
49.560 - Fr = 1.875
Fr = 49.560 - 1.875
Fr = 47.685 N
Question c)
i) The applied force = 49.560 N, distance covered = 12m
Work done = force * distance
Work done = 49.560 * 12
Work done = 594.72 J
ii) the weight of the object does not make the object move a distance, hence work done = 0 ( since distance covered is 0)
iii) the normal force is the same thing as the weight and they did not cover any distance hence work done is zero.
iv) the frictional force does not cover any distance, hence work done is zero.
Question d)
The total work done = work done by applied force + work done by weight + work done by normal reaction + work done by frictional force.
Total work done = 594.72 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 594.72 J
