Exactly 2.6 joules for each meter that you keep pushing it.If the book doesn't move, then there's no work.
Work = (force) x (distance) = (2 x 1) = 2 newton-meters = 2 joulesPower = (work)/(time) = 2 joules / 1 second = 2 watts
A 1-newton book at 4 meters gains approximately 4 joules of potential energy.
The book's potential energy is 294 joules.
You need to multiply the force by the distance.
Exactly 2.6 joules for each meter that you keep pushing it.If the book doesn't move, then there's no work.
Work Done = Force x Displacement 2.7 joules = 4.5 newtons x Displacement(in meters) Displacement = 0.6 meters
Work = (force) x (distance) = (2 x 1) = 2 newton-meters = 2 joulesPower = (work)/(time) = 2 joules / 1 second = 2 watts
A 1-newton book at 4 meters gains approximately 4 joules of potential energy.
The book's potential energy is 294 joules.
That is why both work and energy are measured in Joules. To do the work I applied a force (equal to the weight of the book) to the book from the floor to the tabletop.Workequals the force times the distance, in units of Newtons times Meters. Therefore 1 Newton-Meter (NM) equals 1 Joule.
The book has a mass of 0.46kg
You need to multiply the force by the distance.
Use the formula PE = mgh (potential energy = mass x gravity x height). If mass is in kilograms, gravity in meters/second2 (the value is about 9.8), and the height is in meters, the answer will be in joules.
The 7.75kg book as a PE of 113.93 joules and the 9.53kg book has a PE of 163.44 joules. A difference of 49.51 joules.
You would expend 2 watts of power when you exert a force of 1N that moves a book 2m in a time interval of 1s.
Needs conversion. 2 m/s (1609 meters/1 mile) = 3218 meters per second ( fast!! ) Kinetic Energy = 1/2(mass)(velocity in meters per second)^2 KE = 1/2(1 kg)(3218 m/s)^2 = 5177762 Joules ( 5.2 X 10^6 Joules ) --------------------------------------------------
