To find the force Sarah expends, we can use the formula for work:

Work = Force × Distance

Plugging in the given values, we have:

84 J = Force × 3 m

To solve for Force, we can divide both sides of the equation by 3:

Force = 84 J / 3 m

Simplifying the expression, we get:

Force = 28 N

Therefore, Sarah expends a force of 28 N.
