I know parts a,b,c but i do not know d. 

**Transcription for Educational Purposes:**

**Scenario:**
You are pulling a box of mass \( m \) along a frictionless horizontal surface by exerting a constant force of magnitude \( F \) on a rope at an angle \( \theta \) above the horizontal, as shown in the accompanying diagram.

**Diagram Description:**
- The diagram shows a box with mass \( m \) on a horizontal line representing the surface.
- A person applies a force \( F \) at an angle \( \theta \) above the horizontal.

**Questions:**

a) After the box has traveled a distance \( d \), how much work have you done? Your answer should be in terms of \( F \), \( \theta \), and \( d \).

b) If the box was not moving when you started pulling on it, what is the magnitude of the velocity of the box after you pull it a distance \( d \)? Your answer should be in terms of \( m \), \( F \), \( \theta \), and \( d \).

c) If the box was not moving when you started pulling on it, what is the magnitude of the velocity of the box after you pull it for a time \( t \)? Your answer should be in terms of \( m \), \( F \), \( \theta \), and \( t \).

d) If the magnitude of force you exert is 200 N, the angle \( \theta \) is 60 degrees, and it takes you 10 seconds to pull the box a distance of 4 m, what is the average power (in W) that you exert during that time?

Expert Solution
Step 1

(d)

The amount of work done on the box is,

W=Fcosθd

The average power you exert on the box during that distance is,

Pavg=Wt=Fcosθdt
