Question

Shawn is doing drills out on the field by pulling a tire behind him for 30 m. If Shawn is applying a net force of

1200 N to pull the tire, then how much work is Shawn doing?

Answer 1

The work done by Shawn in moving the tire is 36,000 J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

net force applied by Shawn , F = 1200 N

distance he moved the tire, d = 30 m

The work done by Shawn in moving the tire is calculated as;

W = Fd

Substitute the given values and solve for Work done;

W = 1200 x 30

W = 36,000 J

Therefore, the work done by Shawn in moving the tire is 36,000 J
