Below is a side-view picture, where a box is brought up to a height at point A and moves a distance d to point B, and then raises to height h to point C and moves back a distance d to point E, and then back down to point A again. In a way, it forms a closed loop. Again, assuming that up and to the right are positive. What is the **total work** done on the box by the force of gravity moving from points DEABCD? Write it as \( W_{\text{total}}. \)**Diagram Explanation:**The diagram illustrates a rectangular path followed by a box. The path includes:1. **A to B:** Horizontal movement to the right.2. **B to C:** Vertical movement upward of height \( h \).3. **C to D:** Horizontal movement to the left.4. **D to E:** Horizontal movement to the left.5. **E to A:** Vertical movement downward.- The labels in the diagram indicate "Weight, mg" acting downwards at each point.- Directions are marked with blue arrows showing the path of movement and red arrows indicating gravitational force.- Coordinates \( x \) and \( y \) are marked for directions on the graph.

A child of mass m = 16 kg slides down a slide of height h = 2.7 m without friction. Let gravitational potential energy be zero at ground level. a)Write an expression for the child's total mechanical energy, E, at the top of the slide, in terms of the variables in the problem and the acceleration due to gravity g. b)Calculate the change in the child's potential energy, ΔU in joules, from the top to the bottom of the slide at ground level (i.e. ΔU = Uground - Utop). c)What is the child's final speed, vf in m/s?
We know that the work (W) done by a force vector F applied to an object over a displacement ?x is given byW = F(cos?) ?x,where F is the magnitude of the force, and ? is the angle between the applied force and the direction of the displacement. This expression assumes that the force is constant over the displacement ?x. If F is not constant, it can be shown that the work done is equal to the area under the curve force versus position.Based on what above said, calculate the work done by the force versus position represented in each graph (a), (b), and (c) in the figure below.
A block of mass 7.50 kg is being pulled along a level surface as shown, by a force directed at 30.0 degrees above horizontal. The pulling force has a magnitude of 68.0 N. Ignore the friction for now. If the total work done by the pulling force is 255 J, then how far has the block traveled? Hints on solving strategy: Remember from Flipping Physics that work is measured in Joules (J). You'll need to use the formula Mr. P gives for calculating the work done by a force over a given displacement.

samuel has is observing an object. you please determine the work that is done by F = 5i -2j+0k which is a force that is constant in moving samuel's object in a plane . samuel tells you that the object moves due to the force in a straight line in the plane. the straight line connects the points A(1,2) and the point B(3,7). I already know that the correct answer to this question is zero. but the question I have is WHY is it zero. explain why the work is zero in this senario. Not how you get to the answer zero, but why the answer zero can make sense in this scenario. is the forece perpendicualr to the direction? i am confused please help and i will like.
