<h3>
Answer:</h3>
117.6 Joules
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
<u>We are given;</u>
- Force of the dog is 24 N
- Distance upward is 4.9 m
We are required to calculate the work done
- Work done is the product of force and distance
- That is; Work done = Force × distance
- It is measured in Joules.
In this case;
Force applied is equivalent to the weight of the dog.
Work done = 24 N × 4.9 m
= 117.6 Joules
Hence, the work done in lifting the dog is 117.6 Joules
The statement is false. Balanced forces can NOT change the speed OR direction of an object's motion. (See Newton's #1 law of motion.)
