Calculate the amount of work done if you use a 100N force to push a 50kg box 5m across the kitchen floor.
A) 250 J
B) 500 J
C) 5000 J
D) 50,000 J

Respuesta :

So if the formula for work is force times displacement times cosine(theta), you'd plug in the numbers

100x5 (since there's no angle in the problem, cosine(theta) isn't used

100x5 = 500

So the answer would be B.

Hope that helps!

The work done is 500 J and the right option is B) 500 J.

To calculate the work done, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • W = Fd.....................Equation 1

Where:

  • W = Work done
  • F = Force applied to the box
  • d = Distance covered by the box.

From the question,

Given:

  • F = 100 N
  • d = 5 m

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • W = 100×5
  • W = 500 J.

Hence, The work done is 500 J and the right option is B) 500 J.
