Question

How much work is done when a 214 newton force pushes a sleeping cow 37m across a field.

Answer 1

Hello!

Answer: 
7918 J

Explanation:

We are assuming that the floor (field) is completely horizontal since there's no information about that in the statement. 

We are going to use the following formula:

$W= F . Cos \alpha . D$

Where:

$F=214 N$
$\alpha =0$º
$D= 37m$

Then, by substituting we have:

$W=214N . Cos (0).37m= 7918 N.m=7918 J$
