To solve this problem, we can use the formula for work:
Work = Force x Distance
Given that the work done is 216 Joules, and the distance is increased from 3 meters to 27 meters, we can set up the equation:
216 = Force x 27
To find the force, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. Dividing both sides by 27:
216 / 27 = Force
Simplifying:
8 = Force
Therefore, the force applied is 8 N.
