Question

If you exert a force of 10.0 n to lift a box a distance of 0.75 m how much work do you do

A. 0.075 J

B. 7.5 J

C. 10.75 J

D. 75 J

Answer 1

The work done is 7.5 Joules.

Explanation:

Work Done is the product of the distance covered and the force applied.

`WorkDone=Force* Distance`,

The force applied is 10.0N.

The distance covered is 0.75m.

This implies that:

`WorkDone=10*0.75`,

`WorkDone=7.5J`.

The work done is 7.5 Joules.
