Chapter 3, Problem 23RQ

When applying the principles of work and force,

  1. work is accomplished when force is applied to an object that does not move

  • in the metric system the measurement for work is cubic centimeters
  • no work is accomplished when an object is stopped by mechanical force
  • if a 50-pound object is moved 10 feet, 500 ft.-lb of work are produced
  • Blurred answer

    torque (or moment) is defined as a force acting perpendicular to a moment arm about a moment center and is defined as: Torque = Force x Distance. A technician is required to apply a torque of 360 lb.·in. (pound·inch) to a series of bolts in an assembly. As part of the technical report that needs to accompany the assembly, you must convert this value to lb.·ft. (pound·foot) and N·m. (Netwon·meter).
    A husband and wife take turns pulling their child in a wagon along a horizontal sidewalk. Each exert a constant force pulls the wagon through the same displacement. They do the same amount of work,but the husband's pulling force is directed 58grades above the horizontal , and the wife's pulling force is directed 38 grades above the horizontal. the husband pulls with a force whose magnitude is 67N. WHat is the magnitude of the pulling force exerted by his wife? 1)sketch of the problem including everything? 2) 3 laws and principle in this problem?
    1) A small steel block and a magnet rest on a horizontal frictionless table. The steel block weighs 0.07N and the magnet is fixed to the table. The force acting on the steel block by the magnet is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the steel block and the magnet. When the block is 26cm away from the magnet, the force becomes 0.145N. If the block starts its motion from rest at this position, what is the magnitude of the velocity of the block when it is 9.5cm away from the magnet?
