Question

3. How much work is done on a small car if a 3150 N force is exerted to move it

75.5 m to the side of the road?

Answer 1

This is what you know: Force= 3150N

Distance= 75.5m

This is what you need to find: Work(W)

Use this formula: W=Fd

W= (3150N) × (75.5m)=237,825 Joules (J)

Answer 2

Answer: W = 237825 J

Explanation: Work is defined as "a force causing movement or displacement of an object":

W = F*d

where W is the work, F is the force and d is the distance, and in this casewe have:

F = 3150 N

d = 75.7 m

W = 3150N*75.5m = 237825 J
