A box is pushed through a distance of 4m across a floor offering 100N resistance. How much work is done by the resisting force ?

Answer»

Solution :The force of FRICTION acting on the box,
F = 100 N
The DISPLACEMENT of the box, S = 4m
The force and displacement are inoppositedirections. HENCE work done on the box is negative.
That is, `W = -FS`
` = -100 xx4`
` = -400` J
