Question

how much force is applied on the body when 300j of work is done in displacing the body through a distance of 5m in the direction of force

Answer 1

Answer:

The force applied on the body is 60N.

Explanation:

The relation between work done on the body and force applied is given as,

$W=F.s$      (1)

Where,

W=work done by the body

F=force required to displace a body

s=distance through which the body is displaced

From the question,

W=300J

s=5m

By substituting the required values in equation (1) we get;

$300=F\times 5$

$F=\frac{300}{5}=60N$

Hence, the force applied on the body is 60N.
