A worker pushes a box across the floor, doing 150 J of work over a distance of 3 m. What is the force exerted by the worker?
The formula for work is: W = Fd
We can rearrange the formula to solve for force:
where:
W is the work done,
F is the force applied,
d is the distance over which the force is applied.
Given:
W = 150J
d = 3m
Plugging in the values, we get:
