Ned the skydiver weighs 600 N and is falling at terminal speed. That is, he has sped up until air resistance has built up so much that he has reached a final constant speed. How much work does Ned do on the air as he falls through 200 m at this terminal speed?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The work done is 120000 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight = 600 N

Distance = 200 m

We need to calculate the work done

Using formula of work done

[tex]W=F\times d[/tex]

Where, F = force

d = distance

Put the value into the formula

[tex]W=600\times200[/tex]

[tex]W=120000\ J[/tex]

Hence, The work done is 120000 J.
