Question 180 of 200
Multiple Choice
Force into small intervals
10.82%
Explanation:

This option suggests dividing the force into small intervals. It does not provide a complete method for calculating work done because you also need information about the displacement.

The displacement into small intervals
59.20%
Explanation:

This option suggests dividing the displacement into small intervals. While this approach is a step in the right direction, you still need to consider the force acting over those intervals.

Both force and displacement into small intervals
26.89%
Explanation:

This option correctly states that to find the work done by a variable force, you need to consider both the force and displacement into small intervals. You perform a series of small calculations to determine the work done over each interval and then sum them up to find the total work done.

By taking displacements at different angles
3.09%
Explanation:

Considering displacements at different angles does not directly address how to calculate work done by a variable force. It's important to focus on dividing both force and displacement into small intervals.

Explanation

The correct statement is C. Both force and displacement into small intervals. To find the work done by a variable force, you need to consider both the force and displacement into small intervals, perform calculations for each interval, and then sum them up to find the total work done.
