You pull your sled through the snow a distance of 500 meters with a horizontal force of 200 newtons. How much work did you do?

Asked by BeatrizBiagioni183

Answer (3)

The **force **applied to pull an object is 200 N and the distance it sleds through the snow is 500 meters, so the amount of **work done **over here is 1,00,000 Nm.
What is Work?
When an **external **force moves an object over a distance, at least a fraction of that force must be exerted in the **displacement's **direction. This is known as **work **in physics. By multiplying the length of the path by the component of the force acting along the path, work can be calculated if the **force **is constant. The work W is equal to the force f times the **distance **d, or W = f.d, to mathematically describe this idea.
According to the question, the given values are :
Distance, d = 500 meters
Force, f = 200 Newton
So the formula for work done= force× displacement
W = 200 × 500
W = 1,00,000 Nm
Hence, the work done over here is 1,00,000 Nm.

The work done while pulling the sled is calculated using the formula W = F × d . With a force of 200 N and a distance of 500 m, the work done is 100000 joules. Therefore, you did 100000 joules of work on the sled.
