Problem Set 7: Work, Power and Energy

1. What is the work done on a crate that was pushed by a tractor with 84 N force causing it to move
by 15.0 m to the same direction as the force?

2. What is the kinetic energy of a 50.0 g bullet moving at 45 m/s?

3. How many joules of work are done on an object when a force of 5 N pushes it a distance of
20 m?

4. How much power is required to do 50 J of work on an object in a time of 1.0 s? How much power
is required if the same work is done in 0.5 s?

5. A boulder is raised above the ground so that its potential energy relative to the ground is 150 J.
Then it is dropped. What is its kinetic energy just before it hits the ground?

6. If an automobile that has a kinetic energy of 3000 J of energy doubles its speed what will be its
kinetic energy? What if the speed is tripled?

7. A man weighing 700 N climbs a building 4.0 m high. How much work did he do?

8. A mother cat decides to move her kittens to a new location. She has 5 kittens, each weighing
100 g. She moves them 5.0 m across the floor and up on a box 50 cm high. How much work did
she do?

9. A 3 kg load is held 1.5 m above the floor of a room. What is the potential energy with respect to
a) floor? b) to the ground which is 3 m below the floor of the room?

10. How high can you raise a book weighing 5 N if you have 1.5 J of available energy?

11. A meteorite weighing 2000 N strikes the earth with a speed of 45 m/s. What is its kinetic energy?

12. A boy has a weight of 500 N and can run up a flight of stairs in 10 s. There are 30 stairs and
each of them is of height 0.16 m. Calculate the boy’s power.
