Explanation

Work done

$(W)$

$W = F\times S$

$F$ ; applied force

$S$ ; displacement

Given :

$F = 20N$

$S = 8.0$ m

$\Rightarrow W = 20 \times 8.0$

$\Rightarrow W = 160\ J$

Identify the wrong statement about work.

0%
It is the scalar product of force and displacement
0%
It is a vector that is always in the same direction as the force.
0%
It is measured in joules.
0%
It has the same units as energy.

Explanation

Work done by a force is given by dot product of force and displacement

$W = F.S =F S$

$cos\theta$

Work done is a scalar quantity.

It is measured in joules and thus has the same units as energy.

$0\ J$
0%
$0.90\ J$
0%
$12\ J$
0%
$-12\ J$
0%
$-0.90\ J$

Explanation

As the mass is moving with a constant speed, thus net external force acting on the mass is zero.

$F_{net} = 0$

Displacement of the mass

$S = 4.0$ m

Net work done on the mass

$W_{net} = F_{net} \times S$

$\Rightarrow W_{net} = 0\ J$

1 horse power is equal to ______ watt :

0%
746
0%
500
0%
646
0%
700

Explanation

One horse power (HP)

$=550$ foot pound per second

Also,

$1$ foot $=0.3048 \ m$
$1$ pound $=4.448 \ N$

So,

$1 \ HP=550\times 0.3048\times 4.448 \ Nms^{-1} \simeq 746 \ Nms^{-1}$

Since

$1 W=1 \ Nms^{-1}$ ,

$\Rightarrow 746 \ Nms^{-1}=746 \ watt$

$t$ is the time of operation.

Since

$P$ has unit watt and

$t$ has a unit hour.

Thus watt-hour is the unit of energy.

Similarly, a kilowatt-hour is the unit of energy.

Thus Assertion is incorrect and Reason is correct.

A bicyclist comes to a skidding stop in

$10 m$ . During this process, the force on the bicycle due to the road is

$200N$ and is directly opposed to the motion. The work done by the cycle on the road is

0%
$+ 2000J$
0%
$200J$
0%
$zero$
0%
$20,000J$

Explanation

Work done by the road on the cycle is

$W =F \times s=- 200N \times 10m=-2000J$

Negative sign indicates that the direction of the force and the displacement is opposite.

The cycle applies an equal and opposite force on the road. But as the displacement of the road is zero, work done by the cycle on the road is

$zero$ .
