Question

Suppose that you apply a horizontal force of 60 N to a box and youdisplace it for a distance of 5 m. How much work did you do on the box? *

Answer 1

Given:

The horizontal force applied is F = 60 N

The distance displaced is d = 5 m

To find the work done.

Explanation:

The work done will be

$\begin{gathered} W=F\times d \\ =60\times5 \\ =\text{ 300 J} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the work done is 300 J.
