The work done by a person when raising an object against gravity can be calculated using the formula:
Work = Force x Distance
In this case, the force (F) exerted by the person is 50 N and the distance (d) the box is raised is 5/10 m.
Therefore, the work done by the person would be:
Work = 50 N x 5/10 m
Work = 250/10
Work = 25 J
So, the person does 25 Joules of work in raising the box.
A person raises a box with a white of 50 N x 5/10 m how much work does the person do in this action
