Question

A man pushes on a trunk with a force of 250 newtons. The trunk does not move. How much positive work is done on the trunk?

0.0 J
250 J
250 J
125 J

Answer 1

0.0 J is the answer

Answer 2

The correct answer is 0.0 J.

Step-by-step explanation:

Force exerted o the trunk by man ,F= 250 Newtons

Displacement of the trunk,s = 0 m

Work done is defined as product of force applied on the body and displacement of the body due to applied force.

Work done = Force × Displacement

`W.D =250 N* 0 m =0 J`

Hence, the correct answer is 0.0 J.
