Question

A mover pushes a dresser 9 meters across a bedroom. The mover exerts a horizontal force of 600 Newtons.

What is the work done by the mover?

Answer 1

Given that,

Horizontal force, F = 600 N

A mover pushes a dresser 9 meters across a bedroom.

To find,

The work done by the mover.

Solution,

The work done by an object is given by :

W = Fd

Where d is distance

W = 600 N × 9 m

= 5400 J

So, the work done by the mover is 5400 J.
