Answer: Long Answer...
Explanation: Most of the time, chemical energy is released in the form of heat, and this transformation from chemical energy to heat, or thermal energy, is called an exothermic reaction. Next, there are two main types of mechanical energy: kinetic energy and potential energy.
Work = (force) x (distance)
1,008 J = (force) x (28 m)
Divide each side by 28m : (1,008 kg-m²/sec²) / (28 m) = force
Force = 36 kg-m/s² = 36 Newtons .
(about 8.1 pounds)
It doesn't matter what that force accomplishes.
It could be moving a brick, lifting a fish, or pushing a little red wagon.
In order to do 1,008 joules of work in 28 meters, it takes 36 N of force,
in the direction of the 28 meters.
Positive will react better together. But opposites will try to get as far away as possible.
