Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

A force of 10 N is applied to move a box 5 m across a frictionless surface. What is the work done on the box? (2021)
  • Step 1: Identify the force applied to the box, which is 10 N.
  • Step 2: Identify the distance the box is moved, which is 5 m.
  • Step 3: Use the formula for work done, which is Work (W) = Force (F) × Distance (d).
  • Step 4: Substitute the values into the formula: W = 10 N × 5 m.
  • Step 5: Calculate the result: W = 50 J.
  • Work Done – Work done is calculated as the product of the force applied and the distance moved in the direction of the force.
  • Frictionless Surface – The absence of friction simplifies the calculation of work done, as no energy is lost to friction.
