Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 120 \ Joules}}[/tex]

Explanation:

Work is equal to the product of force and distance.

[tex]W=F*d[/tex]

The force is 8 Newtons and the distance is 15 meters.

[tex]F= 8 \ N \\d= 15 \ m[/tex]

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]W= 8 \ N * 15 \ m[/tex]

Multiply.

[tex]W= 120 \ N*m[/tex]

  • 1 Newton meter is equal to 1 Joule
  • Our answer of 120 N*m equals 120 J

[tex]W= 120 \ J[/tex]

The work done is 120 Joules
