5) With a power of 0.12HP it is possible to move a piece of furniture from one place to another, in 14 seconds, applying a force of 70N on it. Calculate: a- The work done. b- The distance traveled.

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) 1250 J

b) 17.9 m

Explanation:

Convert horsepower to watts:

0.12 HP = 89.5 W

a) Work = power × time

W = (89.5 W) (14 s)

W = 1250 J

b) Work = force × distance

1250 J = (70 N) d

d = 17.9 m
