Question

Answer 1

2000 j

Step-by-step explanation:

its the right answer

Answer 2

Hello!

Answer:

2000 J

Explanation

Work equation is expressed as:


`W=F.d.Cos \alpha`

Where:

F: Applied force
d: traveled distance
α: Angle between the direction of the force and the direction of the movement. (in this case, both of the direction are the same, so the angle is 0°)

By substituting:


`F=1000N.2m.Cos(0)=2000N.m=2000 J`

Have a nice day!
