Question

The wind blows a 0.5 g leaf with a force of 0.008 N. If the leaf travels 25 m, how much work did the wind do on the leaf?

a. 0.13 J
b. 0.20 J
c. 0.63 J
d. 1.6 J

Answer 1

work done = force applied x distance through which it is applied

work done = 0.008 x 25

work done = 0.2 J

So the answer is b. 0.20J
