a chain lying on the ground is 10 m long and its mass is 90 kg. how much work (in j) is required to raise one end of the chain to a height of 6 m? (use 9.8 m/s2 for g.)

Respuesta :

Amount of work done required to raise one end of the chain is 158.6 J

Work is said to be done when a  force act on a body and it displaced from its position.

It's unit is joule.

W = F × S

where

W = work done

F = force applied

S = displacement

Force acting on the chain with respect to the distance is given by

F = mgx / 10

m is mass

m = 90 kg

g is gravity (9.8 m/s2 for g.)

90× 9.8× x / 10

F = 88.2x Newton

To calculate the amount of work done.

[tex]W = \int\limits^f_i{F(x)} \, dx[/tex]

[tex]W = \int\limits^6_0 {F(x)} \, dx[/tex]

[tex]W = 88.2\int\limits^6_0 {x} \, dx[/tex]

[tex]W = 88.2 | \frac{x^2}{2}|^{6} _{0}[/tex]

W = 88.3( 6² - 0²)/2

W = 88.2 (36- 0) /2

W = 88.2 × 18

W = 158.6 J

Amount of work done required to raise one end of the chain is 158.6 J
