Question

A man does 500 J of work pushing a car a distance of 2 m. How much force does he apply?

Answer 1

Answer:

Work done = Force × distance

Force = Work done/distance

Force =500/2

Force = 250 Newton

Answer 2

Answer:

Question :-

A man does 500 J of work pushing a car a distance of 2 m. How much force does he apply?

Required Answer :-

250 N

Formula used here :-

$\small\sf \red{work \: done = force \: \times \: displacement}$

Solution :-

Work done = Force × Displacement

$500 \: J = F × 2$

$\frac{500}{2} = F$

$250 = F$

Force = 250 Newton

Therefore the force of 250N was applied.
