you must exert a force of 4.5 N on a book to slide it across a table. If you do 2.7 j of work in the process, how far have you moved the book?

Respuesta :

Work done (energy) = force * distance

So: distance = work done / force

= 2.7 / 4.5

= 0.6m
AL2006

             Work  =  (force) x (distance)

      2.7 Joules  =  (4.5 N) x (distance)

         distance  =  2.7 J / 4.5 N 

                       =   0.6 meter
