Given :
Displacement = 30m
Force = 250N
Angle between F and d = 30°
To Find :
Work done by the applied force.
Solution :
❖ Work done is defined as the product of force and displacement
Mathematically, W = F • d
» W denotes work done
» F denotes force
» d denotes displacement
- It is a scalar quantity having only magnitude.
- SI unit : J
- CGS unit : erg
By substituting the given values;
➙ W = F • d
➙ W = F d cos ∅
Where ∅ denotes angle between F and d.
➙ W = 250 × 30 × cos 30°
➙ W = 7500 × √3/2
➙ W = 6487.5 J

Displacement = 30m
Force = 250N
Angle between F and d = 30°
Work done
Work done = force × displacement or W = F • d
Let,
W = work done
F = force
d = displacement
Substituting the given values;
➙ W = F • d
➙ W = F d cos ∅
Where ∅ = angle between F and d.
➙ W = 250 × 30 × cos 30°
➙ W = 7500 × √3/2
➙ W = 6487.5 J
