Question

If you exert a force of 24 N to lift a box adistance of 2.24 m, how much work do youdo?Answer in units of J

Answer 1

We are given that a force of 24N is exerted on an object to lift it a distance of 2.24m. To determine the work done we will use the following formula:

`W=Fd`

Where:

`\begin{gathered} W=\text{ work} \\ F=\text{ force} \\ d=\text{ distance} \end{gathered}`

Substituting the values we get:

`W=(24N)(2.24m)`

Solving the operations:

`W=53.76J`

Therefore, the work done is 53.76 Joules.
