1. A person pushes a box 6 meters and applies a force of 600 Newtons. How much work is being done? Please show your calculations.

1 answer

To calculate the work being done, we use the formula:

Work = Force × Distance

Given:
Force = 600 Newtons
Distance = 6 meters

Substituting the values into the formula:

Work = 600 N × 6 m

Work = 3600 Nm

Therefore, the work being done is 3600 Newton-meters, or 3600 Joules (since 1 Newton-meter is equal to 1 Joule).
