The work done in pulling a loaded box along a 2 m distance is 150J. What is the force applied in pulling the load?

Sagot :

[tex]\tt{\huge{\blue{Explanation:}}}[/tex]

The work done by an object exerting a force F at a distance d is given by

[tex]\boxed{W = Fd}[/tex]

where:

W = work

F = force

d = distance

[tex]\tt{\huge{\red{Solution:}}}[/tex]

Solving for F

W = Fd

[tex]F = \dfrac{W}{d}[/tex]

[tex]F = \dfrac{\text{150 J}}{\text{2 m}}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{F = \text{75 N}}[/tex]

Therefore, the amount of force being applied is 75 N.
