Question

How much work is done if you push a box 150 meters with a force of 1.4 N

Answer 1

The work done to push the box is equal to the product between the force and the distance through which the force is applied:

`W=Fd`
In our problem, the force is F=1.4 N and the distance covered is d=150 m, so the work done by pushing the box is

`W=Fd=(1.4 N)(150 m)=210 J`
