Question

3. If you puth 350 ON on a 45kg box to move it in the same direction as the push, while using 4462.53 of work. How far did you move it?

Answer 1

Given,

The applied force, F=350.0 N

The mass of the box, m=45 kg

The work done by the applied force, W=4462.5 J

The work is given by the product of the applied force and the distance through which the force is applied.

Thus the work done by the applied force on the box is given by,

`W=F* d`

Where d is the distance covered by the box.

On rearranging the above equation,

`d=(W)/(F)`

On substituting the known values,

`\begin{gathered} d=(4462.5)/(350) \\ =12.75\text{ m} \end{gathered}`

Thus the box move for a distance of 12.75 m
