Use the formula above to calculate work done.
Calculate the amount of work done by the force in moving the object through a distance of 4.5 m if an object is horizontally dragged across the surface by a 115 N force acting parallel to the surface.
a
.039 J
b
517.5 J
c
25.5 J
d
119.5 J
The formula for work done is given by Work = Force x Distance.
In this case, the force acting on the object is 115 N and the distance through which it is moved is 4.5 m.
Using the formula, we have Work = 115 N x 4.5 m = 517.5 J.
Therefore, the correct option is b) 517.5 J.
