Question

work is when an object moves a distance due to a specific force.
in order for work to be done, the object must move a distance in the direction of the applied force.
the formula for work is: force × distance = work
work is measured in newton meters, n·m.
if someone uses 200 newtons of force to move a car 10 meters forward, how much work is done?
10 n·m
2,000 n·m
300 n·m

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the formula

The formula for work is \( Work = Force\times Distance \).

Step2: Substitute the values

Given \( Force = 200\ N \) and \( Distance = 10\ m \), substitute into the formula: \( Work=200\times10 \).

Step3: Calculate the result

\( 200\times10 = 2000\ N\cdot m \).

Answer:

2,000 N•m
