A force of 50 pounds acts in a direction 60° above horizontal, moving an object 100 feet from (0, 0) to (100, 0). How much work is done by the force?

25 foot-pounds
50 foot-pounds
2,500 foot-pounds
5,000 foot-pounds

Respuesta :

Answer:

2,500 Foot-Pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Edge 2020

Therefore, the work done by the force is  2500 foot-pounds.

Work Done:

When an object moves while a force is being exerted on it, then work is being done on the object by the force.

If an object moves through a displacement d while a constant force F is acting on it, the force does an amount of work equal to,

[tex]W=F \cdot d\\F=Fd cos\phi[/tex]

Where [tex]\phi[/tex] is the angle between [tex]d\ and\ F[/tex].

Given that,

[tex]F=50\ pounds, \\d=100\ feet, \\\phi=60[/tex]

So, Work done is,

[tex]Work\ done=50\times 100\times cos60\\=2500 \ foot\ pound[/tex]
