Answer:

500Nm

Step-by-step explanation:

Work is said to be done when the applied force on an object causes the object to move through a distance and in the direction of the applied force.

Based on the above definition, it can be concluded that before work can be done on an object, the force applied to the object must have cause the object to move. If there is no movement of the object, then work has not been done.

Mathematically,

Work done = force × distance in direction of force.

If Jackie carries a 100 N box through a distance of 5 meters, then work has been done by Jackie. We are to calculate the work done by Jackie according to the question.

Given Force = 100N, distance = 5m

Work done = 100N × 5m

Work done = 500Nm

Answer:

50 joules

Explanation:

Work is done when a force that is applied to an object moves that object. The work is calculated by multiplying the force by the amount of movement of an object (W =F*d).

From the given data I presume you are asked to find the work done over a distance

The work done is the applied for over a distance given by

Work done=force *distance

Given force =10N

Distance =5meter

W. D=10*5

W.D=50 joules
