1 Calculating Work

2 Work = force x distance W=f x d Unit of Measurement for Work is Joules Unit of Measurement for Force is Newtons Unit of Measurement for distance is meters

3 A rock weighing 2 Newtons was lifted 3 meters. How much work was done?

4 A rock weighing 6.5 Newtons was moved 2 meters. How much work was done?

5 It took 600 Newtons of force to move a car 4 meters. How much work was done?

6 It took 45 Newtons to lift a crate 1.5 meteres. How much work was done?

7 45 joules were expended to move a box weighing 30 Newtons. How many meters was it moved?

8 It took 50 joules to push a crate 2.5 meters. With what force was the crate pushed?
