Question

A sled is being pulled with a force of 120 N at an angle of 35o with the horizontal. How far is the sled pulled if 1100 J of work is done? (11.2 m)

Answer 1

Answer:11.2 m

Explanation:

Given

Force Applied
`F=120 N`

inclination
`\theta =35^(\circ)`

Force has two components here i.e.
`F\cos \theta` and
`F\sin \theta`

`F\cos \theta` will will do work

Work done is given by force time displacement

`W=120\cdot \cos 35* s`

`1100=120* \cos 35* s`

`s=11.19\approx 11.2 m`
