A force of 25 N acts on a body and produces a displacement of 5 m. Calculate the work done?
Given:
Force is = 25 N
Displacement = 5 m
Calculation:
Work done is given as,
Workdone(W)=Force(F)×Displacement(d)Workdone(W)=25N×5mWorkdone(W)=125J
Hence, Work done (W) is 125 J.
A force of 10 N acts on a body and moves it through a distance of 5 m in the direction of force. Calculate the work done by the force.
(a) What happens to the work done when the displacement of a body is at right angles to the direction of force acting on it ? Explain your answer.
(b) A force of 50 N acts on a body and moves it a distance of 4 m on a horzontal surface. Calculate the work done if the direction of force is at an angle of 60∘ to the horizontal surface.
