Question

160J of a work is done when a force of 20N is applied on an object. Calculate the distance through which the object moves.​

Answer 1

Given:-

• Work Done ,W = 160 J

• Force applied ,f = 20 N

To Find:-

• Distance moves by object ,s

Solution:-

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀According to the Question

It is given that the work done on the object is 160 J when force of 20 N is applied on the object . We have to calculate the distance travelled by the object .

As we know that Work Done is calculated by the product of force and distance .

• W = Fs

where,

• W denote work done
• F denote force
• s denote distance

Substitute the value we get

$:\implies$ 160 = 20 × s

$:\implies$ 160/20 = s

$:\implies$ s = 160/20

$:\implies$ s = 8 m

• Hence, the distance covered by the object is 8 metres .

Answer 2

Given:

• Work done = 160J
• Force applied = 20N

To find:

• Distance (s) through which the object moves.

Solution:

★ As we know,

• Work = Force × Distance

Therefore,

➟ 160 = 20 × s

➟ 160/20 = s

➟ s = 8m

• Hence, the distance through which the object moves is 8m.
