Question
**Problem Statement:**

A worker pushes horizontally on a large crate with a force of 190 N, and the crate is moved 4.0 m. How much work was done?

[Input Box] J

**Explanation:**

To calculate the work done, we use the formula:

\[ \text{Work} = \text{Force} \times \text{Distance} \]

Substitute the given values:

\[ \text{Work} = 190\, \text{N} \times 4.0\, \text{m} \]

\[ \text{Work} = 760\, \text{J} \]

Thus, the work done is 760 Joules.
