SECTION (B)
Answer ALL Questions
Answer any FOUR Questions
- (a) Is work a vector or scalar? Define “energy”. A wooden sphere of mass 0.15 kg is thrown
with a velocity o down the unit of work in SI system. A woman push a child, who is
riding a tricycle, with a 200N force. The tricycle moves a distance of 2m and the work done
by the woman is 100J. Find the angle between the force and the displacement. (4-marks )
