A plane designed for vertical takeoff has a mass of 8.0 * 10³ kg. Find the net work done by all forces on the plane as it accelerates upward at 1.0 m/s² through a distance of 30.0 m after starting from rest.

the net work done after starting from rest is = 2.4 * 10⁵ J

Explanation:

Work: Work can be defined as the product of force and distance. The fundamental unit of work is Joules (J), The unit of Energy is Joules (J), as such Energy and work are interchangeable during calculation, This is illustrated below

E = W = 1/2mv² ... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the plane, v = velocity of the plane, E = Energy, W = work done.

v² = u² + 2as ... Equation 2.

Where v = final velocity of the plane, u = initial velocity of the plane, a = acceleration of the plane, distance of the plane.

Given: a = 1.0 m/s², s = 30 m, u = 0 m/s (at rest)

Substituting these values into equation 2

v² = 0² + 2*1*30

v² = 60

v = √60

v = 7.75 m/s

Also given: m = 8.0 * 10³ kg, and v = 7.75 m/s

Substituting these values into equation 1,

W = 1/2 (8.0*10³) (7.75) ²

W = (4.0*10³) (60)

W = 240 * 10³ J

W = 2.4 * 10⁵ J

Therefore the net work done after starting from rest is = 2.4 * 10⁵ J
