The work done by the person is zero in the horizontal direction because the force and displacement are perpendicular. In the vertical direction, the work done is 10kgf * 9.8m/s^2 * 5m = 490 Joules, as the force of gravity acts against the displacement.

When you are sprinting with a suitcase when is work being done on your suitcase?

Technically, no; work is performed when lifting the suitcase, but not when holding it level. Work IS performed to accelerate the suitcase at the beginning of the sprint, when turning or climbing stairs, and to slow it down at the end; but carrying the suitcase at a constant velocity and constant height is not "work".


If A 130 N suitcase is dragged a distance of 250m at a constant speed A force of 60 N is exerted at an angle 40 degrees above the horizontal. a How much work is being done. b How much work is done?

The force which is responsible to make a drag through a distance of 250 m is the horizontal component of the force 60 N ie 60 cos 40 = 45.96 N Hence the work done = F s = 45.96 x 250 = 11490 joule. The usual formula for work done W = F s cos@ where @ is the angle between the force vector and the displacement vector. Here the weight of the suitcase is perpendicular to the displacement and so the value of cos 90 is zero and hence no work is done due to the weight of the suitcase.


True or false setting a heavy suitcase down on the ground requires you to do negative work on it?

False. Setting a heavy suitcase down on the ground does not require you to do negative work on it. Work is only done when you apply a force to an object and move it over a distance in the direction of the force applied. Simply placing the suitcase on the ground does not involve any work being done.


When you pull a suitcase with wheel why does only part of your force do work?

This is because if its a suitcase with wheels, half of your body is pushing\pulling the suit case while the wheels are doing some of the work too. This is why when you have a backpack with wheels, it seems lighter than having it on your back.


Does a boy holding a suitcase in his hand exert force?

Yes he exerts a force which equals to the weight of the suitcase. So the suitcase is at rest in his holding

How can I find a stylish and functional suitcase with a horizontal design?

To find a stylish and functional suitcase with a horizontal design, you can search online on websites like Amazon or department stores like Macy's. Look for keywords like "horizontal suitcase" or "stylish luggage" to narrow down your options. Read reviews and compare features such as size, material, and additional compartments to ensure it meets your needs.


Suitcase can hold up to 66litres how heavy in kilograms is this?

66Kg You really cannot tell how much the suitcase can hold in mass. 66 litres is the volume of the suitcase. The answer would be 66 kg if you were carrying water, but I think the actual weight limit is going to be far less, otherwise the suitcase would be capable of carrying the weight of a typical teenager (145 lb)

How unlock suitcase extendable handle?

Answer: there should be a button on your suitcase, if there is, then press it and push the lever then it will work and then you will be carrying your suitcase like you should, with your extendable handle. If there is no button to push on, on the extendable handle, then go on the back of the handle and push it, you should be lifting it up by now. hope these answers help you!
