Movers exert a force of 700 N to slide a piece of furniture and do 2800 kilojoules of work. Calculate the distance the furniture is moved.
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 = 2800k J = 2,800,000
F = 700N
Plugging in the values, we get:
