A force of 600 N displaces an object through 2 m. Find the work done if the force and displacement are 1. Parallel 2. At right angles. |
|
Answer» Work done is given by W = Fs cosθ 1. when F and s are parallel, θ = 0 and hence cosθ = 1 ∴ W = Fs = 600 × 2 = 1200 J. 2. when F and s are at right angles, θ = 90° and hence cosθ = 0 ∴ Work done, W = 0. |
