Question

If a neighbor pushes a lawnmower six times as far as you do but exerts only one third the force, which one of you does more work and by how much?

Answer 1

Answer:

W= 3F.d

Step-by-step explanation:


You

W= F.d

W= F.d

Your neighbor

W= (1/2 F) (6d)

W= 6/2 F.d

W= 3 F.d

Answer 2

Your neighbor does twice as much work.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance(measurement) * exertion(force of pushing mower) = work

6 * 1/3 = 2

Your neighbor does twice as much work as you do.
