参考答案与解析
1. C
When the force is exerted in the direction of motion, work is simply the product of force and displacement. The work done is (10 N)(4.0 m) = 40 J.
2. D
Thework done on the box is the force exerted multiplied by the box’sdisplacement. Since the box travels at a constant velocity, we knowthat the net force acting on the box is zero. That means that the forceof the person’s push is equal and opposite to the force of friction.The force of friction is given by
, where
is the coefficient of kinetic friction and N is the normal force. The normal force is equal to the weight of the box, which is mg = (10 kg )(10 m/s2) = 100 N. With all this in mind, we can solve for the work done on the box:
3. C
The work done bythe force of gravity is the dot product of the displacement of the boxand the force of gravity acting on the box. That means that we need tocalculate the component of the force of gravity that is parallel to theincline. This is mg sin 30 = (10 kg)(10 m/s2) sin 30. Thus, the work done is
4. C
This isthe same question as question 1. We were hoping that with differentnumbers and line spacing you wouldn’t notice. The test writers do thattoo sometimes.
5. C
a force vs. displacement graph, the amount of work done is the area between the graph and the x-axis. The work Al does is the area of the
right triangle:
The amount of work Betty does is equal to the area of a triangle of length 2 and height 4:
The amount of work done by Chuck is equal to the area of a rectangle of length 2 and height 4:
J. We can conclude that Chuck did the most work.
Don’t be fooled by D: the force exerted by Al is in the opposite direction of the object’s displacement, so he does negative work on the object.
6. E
The formula for kinetic energy is KE =
mv2.Since the car’s kinetic energy is directly proportional to the squareof its velocity, doubling the velocity would mean quadrupling itskinetic energy.
7. A
The work-energy theorem tells us that the amount of work done on an objectis equal to the amount of kinetic energy it gains, and the amount ofwork done by an object is equal to the amount of kinetic energy itloses. The box gains 500 J of kinetic energy from the worker’s push,and loses 375 J of kinetic energy to friction, for a net gain of 125 J.Kinetic energy is related to velocity by the formula KE =
mv2, so we can get the answer by plugging numbers into this formula and solving for v:
8. C
When the book reaches the person in the window, it will have a gravitational potential energy of U = mgh.In order for the book to reach the window, then, it must leave thehands of the person at street level with at least that much kineticenergy. Kinetic energy is given by the formula KE = 1/2 mv2, so we can solve for v by making KE = U:
9. B
Power is ameasure of work divided by time. In turn, work is a measure of forcemultiplied by displacement. Since the crate is lifted with a constantvelocity, we know that the net force acting on it is zero, and so theforce exerted by the forklift must be equal and opposite to the weightof the crate, which is (100 kg)(10 m/s2) =
103 N. From this, we can calculate the power exerted by the forklift:
10. A
Poweris measured as work divided by time, and work is the dot product offorce and displacement. While the crate is being held in the air, it isnot displaced, so the displacement is zero. That means the forkliftdoes no work, and thus exerts no power.
