How do I do this problem A wagon is pulled by a force of 41.8 N on the handle at an angle of 25 degrees with the horizontal If the wagon if pulled in a circle of radius 18.0 m how much work is done?
The simplistic solution is as follows: The component of the force in the horizontal plane is 41.8*cos(25) = 37.9 N. The distance travelled is pi*18 metres so work done = 37.9*18 = 2142 Joules.
When A girl pulls on a 10-kg wagon with a constant force of 20 N What is the wagon's acceleration in meters per second squared?
-10
A husband and wife take turns pulling their child in a wagon along a horizontal sidewalk Each exerts a constant force and pulls the wagon through the same displacement They do the same amount of work?
Depends... they are doing the same amount of work on the wagon/child. HOwever, if you take everything into account... say the diffrent masses of the father and mother, then the bigger of the two would be doing more work.
How many syllables are in the word wagon?

How many syllables does wagon have?
There are two syllables in the word wagon. The syllables are wag-on.
Is pushing a wagon an example of force and motion?
Hhhh
When you pull a wagon you are exerting a what on the wagon?
force
When you pull a wagon you are exerting what on the wagon?
force
Why does a child on a toboggan fall back when the toboggan is given a sharp tug?
A child in a wagon seems to fall backward when you give the wagon a sharp pull forward because the force that is exerted on te wagon is greater than the force of the friction pushing the child forward while the wagon is accelerating forward. If the force was great enough or if the wagon were to continue being pushed with a constant or increasing force, the child would eventually fall off the wagon. If the wagon's surface had no friction and there was no wind blowing against the wagon but there was friction on the ground the wagon is rolling on, then the child would stay in the same position and would fall of the wagon if the wagon were to travel far enough. If the surface of the wagon had no friction, there was no other force stopping the wagon, then the child wouldn't move his position while the wagon wouldn't stop ever making it so the child had to eventually fall assuming the wagon is finite and doesn't go all the way around in a circle around a center of gravity.
A boy on a bicycle drags a wagon full of newspapers at .800 ms for thirty minutes using a force of fortyt N how much work has the boy done?
Calculate the distance first. Then multiply distance x force.
What does friction have to do with pushing or pulling a wagon?
Friction is necessary to cause the wheels to rotate about the axis of the wagon-- without it the wagon would just slide over the surface.
How much work is done by the girl pulling her brother who is in the wagon if she exerts a force of 50N at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal and travels 25m?
Work = (force) x (distance)Work = (33N) x (13m) = 429 N-m = 429 joulesIF the force is in exactly the same direction as the motion of the wagon.
How do you reset circuit breaker in 1990 Camry wagon?
You reset a circuit breaker by pushing the reset button.
One way to increase the force used to pull a wagon is to decrease the mass in the wagon true or false?
False. Since Force=mass*acceleration, decreasing mass will increase acceleration for the same applied force.
If you push a crate at constant velocity how does friction acting on the crate compare with your pushing force?
If a wagon is moving at a constant velocity, the total applied force must equal the frictional forces that resist the continued motion of the wagon. If they were not equal, the wagon would accelerate. In positive acceleration, it would speed up, and in negative acceleration, it would slow down. Think it through and you'll see that this is the only answer that makes sense. And not only does it make sense, it is true. The laws of physics are in force here.
Is one way to increase the force used to pull a wagon to decrease the mass in the wagon?
Of course not. But decreasing the mass of the wagon mayincrease the effectiveness of the force used to pull it.Look at it this way:Whether I'm trying to pull a truck or a little red wagon, makes no differencein the maximum amount of force I'm able to apply. But my maximum can movethe little red wagon a lot faster and a lot farther than it can move the truck.
A 20kg toy wagon is pulled with an applied force of 35N. if the handle of the wagon is at 45, and the coefficient of friction is 0.1, find the acceleration of the wagon?
9.19 m/s^2
