Question

What is the value of work done on an object when a 50-newton force moves it 15 meters in the same direction as the force?

Answer 1

Answer:

W = 750 Joules.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force acting on the object, F = 50 N

Distance moved by the object, d = 15 m

To find,

Work done by the object

Solution,

Let W is the work done by the object. It is given by the product of force and distance. Its expression is given by :

$W=F\times d\ cos\theta$

Here, $\theta=0$ (force and distance are in same direction)

$W=F\times d$

$W=50\ N\times 15\ m$

W = 750 Joules

So, the work done by the force is 750 Joules.
