Magnus has reached the finals of a strength competition. in the first round, he has to pull a city bus as far as he can. one end of a rope is attached to the bus and the other is tied around magnus's waist. if a force gauge placed halfway down the rope reads out a constant 2450 newtons while magnus pulls the bus a distance of 1.50 meters, how much work does the tension force do on magnus?

W = -3675 J

Explanation:

given,

Force applied by Magnus to pull the bus = 2450 N

Magnus pull the bus to the distance of = 1.50 m

Work done is equal to the product of force applied in the direction of the motion to the displacement in that direction.

work done by the tension force

Work done = Force × displacement

W = F x d

W = -2450 x 1.50

W = -3675 J

the work done is negative because Magnus move in the opposite direction of the tension.

myth. it was once thought that animals, including cats and dogs, could only see in black and white. however, scientists have proven this to be a myth. in all animals, including humans, the perception of colour is determined by the presence of cells in the eye called cone photoreceptors.
