Question

Object A is pushed with 100-N for 3 m. Object B is pushed with 100-N for 9 meters. What is the work for each object?

A) Object A: 300 J, Object B: 900 J
B) Object A: 900 J, Object B: 300 J
C) Object A: 33.33 J, Object B: 11.11 J
D) Object A: 11.11 J, Object B: 33.33 J

Answer 1

The work done on Object A is 300 Joules and the work done on Object B is 900 Joules, resulting from a force of 100 N applied over distances of 3 meters and 9 meters, respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking about the work done on two different objects when a force is applied over a certain distance. The formula for calculating work is Work = Force × Distance.

For Object A, which is pushed with a 100-N force for 3 meters, the work is calculated as follows:
Work = 100 N × 3 m = 300 J

Similarly, for Object B, which is pushed with a 100-N force for 9 meters, the work is:
Work = 100 N × 9 m = 900 J

Therefore, the correct answer is A) Object A: 300 J, Object B: 900 J.
