Chapter 15, Problem 95A

To determine

To calculate: the work done on the carton by C.

Answer to Problem 95A

Work $\left(W\right)=\text{ 35 N-m}$

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Force on the object in the direction of the motion, $F=10\text{ N}$

Distance from the hall to the kitchen that is object’s displacement, $d=\text{ 3}\text{.5 m}$

Formula Used:

Use equation of work,

  $W=Fd$

Where $W$ is the work done on the object, $F$ refers to force exerted on an object in the direction of motionand $d$ refers tothe object’s displacement

Calculations:

Now putting value of $F=10\text{ N}$

  $d=\text{ 3}\text{.5 m}$

  $\begin{array}{l}W=Fd\\ W=35\text{ N-m}\end{array}$
