Question
the amount of work done depends on the
a amount of force applied.
b mass and distance the object moves.
c mass and speed with which the object moves.
d amount of force and distance the object moves.
In physics (a subfield of Natural Science), work \( W \) is defined as the product of the force \( F \) applied on an object and the distance \( d \) the object moves in the direction of the force, i.e., \( W = F \times d \). So work depends on the amount of force and the distance the object moves. Option a ignores distance, option b and c involve mass and speed (or mass and distance in b, but mass isn't a direct factor in the work formula as work depends on force, not mass directly in this context), so d is correct.
