Question

You swing your golf club such that it hits a ball with a force of 15 newtons. It makes contact with the ball for a distance of 0.01 m. What is the work on the ball?

Answer 1

W = 0.15 J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The force acting on the ball, F = 15 N

It makes contact with the ball for a distance of 0.01 m

We need to find the work done on the ball. The work done can be calculated as :

W = Fd

So,

W = (15 × 0.01) J

W = 0.15 J

So, the work done is 0.15 J.
