A car tries to tow a stranded van out of a ditch, and the car applies 300 N and pulls the van for 3 meters in less than a minute before getting it safely back onto the road. How much work was done by the car on the car? The van on the car?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Work done, W = 900 Joules

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force applies by the car on the van, F = 300 N

The van pulls a distance of, d = 3 m

We need to find the work was done by the car on the car. We know that the product of force and distance is equal to the work done by the object i.e.

[tex]W=F\times d[/tex]

[tex]W=300\ N\times 3\ m[/tex]

W = 900 Joules

So, the work done by the car on the van is 900 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.
