Kinematics
A machine is a device that accepts energy in some available form and utilizes it to do a type of work. Energy, work, or power has to be transferred from one mechanical part to another to run a machine. While the transfer of energy between two machine parts, those two parts experience a relative motion with each other. Studying such relative motions is termed kinematics.
Kinetic Energy and Work-Energy Theorem
In physics, work is the product of the net force in direction of the displacement and the magnitude of this displacement or it can also be defined as the energy transfer of an object when it is moved for a distance due to the forces acting on it in the direction of displacement and perpendicular to the displacement which is called the normal force. Energy is the capacity of any object doing work. The SI unit of work is joule and energy is Joule. This principle follows the second law of Newton's law of motion where the net force causes the acceleration of an object. The force of gravity which is downward force and the normal force acting on an object which is perpendicular to the object are equal in magnitude but opposite to the direction, so while determining the net force, these two components cancel out. The net force is the horizontal component of the force and in our explanation, we consider everything as frictionless surface since friction should also be calculated while called the work-energy component of the object. The two most basics of energy classification are potential energy and kinetic energy. There are various kinds of kinetic energy like chemical, mechanical, thermal, nuclear, electrical, radiant energy, and so on. The work is done when there is a change in energy and it mainly depends on the application of force and movement of the object. Let us say how much work is needed to lift a 5kg ball 5m high. Work is mathematically represented as Force ×Displacement. So it will be 5kg times the gravitational constant on earth and the distance moved by the object. Wnet=Fnet times Displacement.

Directions: Read each of the following statements/questions. Answer them correctly and box your final answer.
1. Using a force of 150 newtons, you push a sofa to the other side of a room, a distance of 3.1 meters. Then
you decide you do not like it there, so you push it back. How much work have you done?
E=156 N
L: 3.1 m
レ:150,0= 0。
2. Using appropriate machinery, you lift a load by pulling 22 meters of rope with a force of 150 newtons.
How much work has been done?
3. A 20-kilogram boulder falls off a cliff and strikes the ground after falling 30 meters. How much work
was done on the boulder?
4. A student lifts a box of books that weighs 185 N. The box is lifted 0.800 m. How much work does the
student do?
5. A force of 825 newtons is needed to push a c
a. How much work is done?
across a lot. Two students push the car 35 meters.
b. After a rainstorm, the force needed to move the car doubled because the ground became soft.
Now how much work would be needed to move the car?
6. A delivery clerk carries a 34 newton package from the ground to the fifth floor of an office building, a
total height of 15 meters. How much work is done by the clerk?
7. What work is done by a forklift raising a 583 kilogram box 1.2 meters?
8. You and a friend each carry identical boxes to a room one floor above you and down the hall. You
choose to carry it first up the stairs, then down the hall. Your friend carries it down the hall, then up
another stairwell. Who does more work?
9. A sailor pulls a boat along a dock using a rope at an angle of 60.0° with the horizontal. How much work
is done by the sailor if he exerts a force of 225 newtons on the rope and pulls the boat 30.0m?
10. How much work does the force of gravity do when a 25 newton object falls a distance of 3.5 meters?](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F95aee0c3-0a7b-478c-9a0b-231d3aede509%2F6bd6954d-b132-4c67-9a1f-d6a3c5c08ee0%2F0w9vhec_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
