A force acts on a 9.90 kg mobile object that moves from an initial position of to a final position of in 5.40 s. Find (a) the work done on the object by the force in the 5.40 s interval, (b) the average power due to the force during that interval, and (c) the angle between vectors and .

Given that,

Mass of object = 9.90 kg

Time =5.40 s

Suppose the force is (2.00i + 9.00j + 5.30k) N, initial position is (2.70i - 2.90j + 5.50k) m and final position is (-4.10i + 3.30j + 5.40k) m.

We need to calculate the displacement

Using formula of displacement

[tex]s=r_{2}-r_{1}[/tex]

Where, [tex]r_{1}[/tex] = initial position

[tex]r_{2}[/tex] = final position

Put the value into the formula

[tex]s= (-4.10i + 3.30j + 5.40k)-(2.70i - 2.90j + 5.50k)[/tex]

[tex]s= -6.80i+6.20j-0.1k[/tex]

(a). We need to calculate the work done on the object

Using formula of work done

[tex]W=F\cdot s[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]W=(2.00i + 9.00j + 5.30k)\cdot (-6.80i+6.20j-0.1k)[/tex]

[tex]W=-13.6+55.8-0.53[/tex]

[tex]W=41.67\ J[/tex]

(b). We need to calculate the average power due to the force during that interval

Using formula of power

[tex]P=\dfrac{W}{t}[/tex]

Where, P = power

W = work

t = time

Put the value into the formula

[tex]P=\dfrac{41.67}{5.40}[/tex]

[tex]P=7.71\ Watt[/tex]

(c). We need to calculate the angle between vectors

Using formula of angle

[tex]\theta=\cos^{-1}(\dfrac{r_{1}r_{2}}{|r_{1}||r_{2}|})[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]\theta=\cos^{-1}\dfrac{(-4.10i + 3.30j + 5.40k)\cdot(2.70i - 2.90j + 5.50k)}{7.54\times6.778})[/tex]

[tex]\theta=79.7^{\circ}[/tex]

Hence, (a). The work done on the object by the force in the 5.40 s interval is 41.67 J.

(b). The average power due to the force during that interval is 7.71 Watt.

(c).  The angle between vectors is 79.7°
