Question

Help!

A couch is pushed with a force of 79 N and moves a distance of 7 m across the floor. How much work was done in moving the couch? Round to a whole number.

Answer 1

Work is done whenever a force moves something over a distance. You can calculate the work done, by multiplying the force by the distance moved in the direction of the force. This is:

W = F * d

W = 79 N * 7 m

W = 553 J

Answer 2

553 J

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

Work = Force × Displacement

Given that,

Force = 79 N

Displacement = 7 m

Let us find.

Work = Force × Displacement

Work = 79 N × 7m

Work = 553 J
