  1. Power Practice Problems Ch 13 Work & Energy

  2. work = force x distanceOrW = Fd • You must exert a force of 4.5N on a book to slide it across a table. If you do 2.7J of work in the process, how far have you moved the book? • 0.60 m • The worlds most powerful tugboats are built in Finland. One of these boats can do 9.8x107J of work through a distance of 35m. What is the force exerted by the tugboat? • 2,800,000N or 2.8x106N

  3. work = force x distanceOrW = Fd • The largest passenger ship still in service is the SS Norway, which has a mass of 7.6x107kg. The force required to accelerate the SS Norway from rest to its top cruising speed of 33km/h is 1.6x106N, assuming that this acceleration takes place over a distance of 2.0km how much work must be done on the ship during this period of acceleration? • 3,200,000,000J or 3.2x109J
