if work done in 2000 j how much should be the force if displacment is 10 m in durection of force
Answers
Solution:
Work done = 2000 J
Displacement [S] = 10 m
Force exerted [F] = ?
Work [W] = F x S
2000 = F x 10
Therefore,
Force = 2000/10
= 200 N
Therefore the force exerted when a work of 2000 J is done and a displacement of 10 m takes place is 200 N.
Knowledge Bytes:
→ Work
When we apply a force on an object and it moves in the direction of the applied force, then we can say that we have done a work.
Work can be positive, negative or even zero.
✳ Positive work takes place when the object moves in the direction of the applied force.
✳ Negative work takes place when the object moves to the direction from which the force is applied.
✳ Zero work is when an object doesn't move at all.
→ The SI unit of work in Nm or Joule [J].
→ For one joule work to be done, a force of 1 N must be applied on an object and it displaces 1 m.
