The students maintain a constant pull of magnitude 00 N applied to the crate by means of a rope inclined to the horizontal at angle of 40.0 o. The velocity of the crate along the straight path is not constant. a. Calculate the work done by each force on the crate. s = 30.0 m A = 00 N = 40.0 o W A = A cos( )s = (00.N) cos(40.0 o ) (30.0 m) = 4596 J W n = n cos( )s = n cos(90.0 o ) (30.0 m) = 0 J W w = w cos( )s = w cos(90.0 o ) (30.0 m) = 0 J b. Calculate the total work done on the crate. W NET = W A + W n + W w = 4596 J + 0 J + 0 J = 4596 J c. If initially the crate was at rest, what is the final speed of the crate as it reaches the lab? W NET = ½ m V f ½ mv i V i = 0 m/s ½ mv f = W NET V f = sqrt( W NET /m) = 13.6 m/s Clayton College & State University October 9, 00
