You're using a wedge to split a log. You are hitting the wedge with a large hammer to drive it into the log. It takes a force of 2000 N to push the wedge into the wood. If the wedge moves 0.2 into the log, how much work have you done on the wedge?

A jet transport with a landing speed of 200 km/h reduces its speed to 60 km/h with a negative thrust R from its jet thrust reversers in a distance of 425 m along the runway with a constant deceleration. The total mass of the aircraft is 140 Mg with mass center at G. Compute the reaction N under the nose wheel B toward the end of the braking interval and prior to the application of mechanical braking. At the lower speed aerodynamic forces on the aircraft are small and may be neglected.
