Given :
• A force of 50N moves from body through 15 m
To find :
• Work done
Concept :
★ Work is the product of force and the displacement in the direction of force.
There are two formulae to calculate work done :-
→ Work = F cos θ × S
where,
• F cos θ denotes the the component of force
• S denotes the displacement
W = F cos θ × S is used when the displacement is perpendicular to the direction to which the force is applied or when the displacement is in the direction opposite to the applied force.
→ Work = F × S
where,
• F denotes the force applied
• S denotes the displacement
This formula is used when the displacement of the object is in the direction of applied force.
So, here in this question the simple formula of work, i.e. W = F × S will be used.
Solution :
→ Work = Force × Displacement
we have,
• Force = 50 N
• Displacement = 15 m
→ Substituting the given values :-
→ Work = 50 × 15
→ Work = 750 N
Therefore, the work done is 750 J
