Answer:
She does a work of 689.44 J in the snow.
Step-by-step explanation:
A force is said to do work when it alters the state of motion of a body. The work of the force on that body will be equivalent to the energy needed to move it.
In other words, Work is a form of energy transmission between bodies. In order to carry out work, a force must be exerted on a body and it must move.
The work is equal to the product of the force times the distance and the cosine of the angle that exists between the direction of the force and the direction that the moving point or object travels:
W= F*d* cos Ф
Work W is measured in joules (J), force is measured in newtons (N), and displacement in meters (m).
In this case:
- F= 180 N
- d=5 m
- Ф= 40 degrees
Replacing:
W= 180 N*5 m* cos 40
Solving:
W= 689.44 J
She does a work of 689.44 J in the snow.
