Two tugboats pull a disabled supertanker. Each tug exerts a constant force of
1.3×10^6 N , one an angle 12 degree west of north and the other an angle 12
degree east of north, as they pull the tanker a distance 0.88km toward the
north.

What is the total work they do on the supertanker?

W = ? J

✔ 最佳答案
Force due north acting on the supertanker by each tugboat
= 1.3x10^6.cos(12) N = 1.27 x 10^6 N
Hence, work done by the 2 tugboats
= 2 x 1.27x10^6 x 0.88x1000 J
= 2.24 x 10^9 J
