Answer the question with explanation and describe your answer.
Answers
WHAT IS WORK DONE?
IN PHYSICS WE HAVE SOME BASIC QUANTITY NAMELY DOT PRODUCT ,CROSS PRODUCT WHICH IS REQUIRED TO EXPLAIN WORK DONE.
DOT PRODUCT OF TWO VECTOR
WHEN TWO VECTOR SAY "a" AND "b" INCLINED AT AN ANGLE "∆" WITH EACH OTHER THAN DOT PRODUCT IS THE PRODUCT OF COMPOSITION OF ONE VECTOR OVER THE OTHER.
MATHEMATICAL
a.bCos∆= Dot product of a and b
SIMILARLY
Work done is the dot product of force with displacement.
Work Done=f.s Cos∆
F is force
s is DISPLACEMENT
∆ is angle between them
ANOTHER IMPORTANT
POINT TO REMEMBER
WORK DONE ON OR BY ANY SYSTEM =ENERGY WASTED OR GENERATED BY THE SYSTEM
POTENTIAL ENERGY
THE ENERGY TO DO WORK GENERATED BY THE SYSTEM DUE TO ITS POSITION IS KNOWN AS POTENTIAL ENERGY
INTERESTING POINT
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO CALCULATE POTENTIAL ENERGY OF THE SYSTEM WE CAN CALCULATE POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE OF THE SYSTEM ONLY.
Answer:
The work done by him on luggage is 225 Joules.
Explanation:
Given :
Mass of the luggage is 15 kg.
Constant of gravity is 10 m/s²
Height is 1.5 m.
To Find :
The work done by him on luggage.
Solution :
So,
We have,
- M = 15 kg
- G = 10 m/s²
- H = 1.5 m
We know that :
Now,
∴ The work done by him on luggage is 225 Joules.
- Explanation of the Question :
Question :
A porter lifts a luggage of 15 kg from the ground and puts it on his head 1.5m above the ground. Calculate the work done by him on the luggage.
So,
In question :
A porter lifts a luggage of 15 kg.
You can see here it state that the Mass of the luggage is 15 kg.
Now, You can see I've 15 kg as mass.
Next,
A porter lifts a luggage of 15 kg from the ground and puts it on his head 1.5m above the ground.
Now, We already have M = 15 kg.
So, Here It state that 1.5m above the ground. Which is giving us height.
Now, you have,
- M = 15 kg .
- H = 1.5 m.
We have the constant of gravity 10 m/s².
Now you have :
- M = 15 kg .
- H = 1.5 m.
- G = 10 m/s²
Now, Simply subsitute them is the formula of work.
Because, It is given that we have to find work done.
