To solve this problem, we can use the equation for work:
Work = Force × Distance
In this case, we know that the initial distance (d1) is 3 meters and the final distance (d2) is 27 meters. The work done is 216 Joules. We can set up the equation as follows:
216 = Force × 27
To solve for the force, we can divide both sides of the equation by 27:
216/27 = Force
Force = 8 N
Therefore, the force applied is 8 Newtons.
A simple machine increases the distance that a force needs to be applied from 3 meters to 27 meters, and the work done is 216 Joules. How much force is applied?(1 point) Responses 9 N 9 N 8 N 8 N 81 N 81 N 72 N
