Questions about Work

jeudi 1 mai 2014

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data

Here are two questions I have some trouble answering :

1- How much work do you do when you hold a bag of groceries while standing STILL?

2- How much work do you do when carrying the same bag on a distance d across the parking lot of the grocery store?



2. Relevant equations



We know that ΔK = W



3. The attempt at a solution

1- In the first question , the person stand still so V = 0 and thus ΔK=0 so the work W=0

2- In the second question, when carrying the bag we only have a gravitational work so W= Wg=0



IS IT CORRECT ?
