How many joules of work are done on an object when a force of 10 N pushes it a distance of 5 m?

The formula for work done against gravity is straightforward multiplication.
W= F x D (force times distance) and therefore W = m x g x d
The values are m (mass in kg), g (gravity in m/sec2), d (distance raised in meters).
The work is expressed in joules, or kg-m2 / sec2.
W (joules) = (20)(9.81)(.5) = 98.1 joules

∙ 13y agoThe answer to this question would also depend on 2 other factors, namely weight and speed.
Seeming that these factors are not stated clearly in the question, one can not give an exact answer to it.
But let's not get to complicated aboud it and just say that the question is ment under the terms of the most common used factors, which would give a weight of '1 kilogram' and a speed of '1 meter a second'..so then the question would be:
How many Joules of work are done on an object 'with a weight of 1 kilogram' when a force of 10 N pushes it 'over' a distance of 5 m 'at a rate of 1 meter a second'?
That would be:
1 kg.m/s = 1N
1 N.m/s = 1J
So: 10 N x m/s = 10 J x (5 x 1m/s) = 50 J
"force x distance / time"

∙ 7y agoJust multiply the force times the distance. The answer will be in newton-meter = joules.

If an object is moved 14 meters and 83 joules What is the force?
Assuming the force doesn't change, and the force and movement are in the same direction, the energy (the joules) is the product of distance and force. Thus, you just need to divide the energy by the distance.
An object with a mass of 21 kg is lifted through a distance of 7 meters how much work is done?
Work = (force) x (distance) = 7 x 2.4 = 16.8 joules
If a train uses an average force of 5200 Newtons to lift a grider 25 meters how much work does the crane do on the grider?
You can use the following theoryIf the resultant force F on an object acts while the object is displaced a distance d, and the force and displacement act parallel to each other, the mechanical work done on the object is the product of F multiplied by d: [3]W = F * d Work=Force*distance,Where work is expressed in joules, force in newtons, and distance in meters.
What is the reaction force to centripetal force in a centrifuge?
The centripetal force is the force with which the centrifuge pushes some object inwards. The opposite force, of course, is the object pushing the centrifuge outwards.
A 200 lb man exerts 882 Newtons on earthhow many Joules is that?
"Newton" and "Joule" were different people, with different names and different spellings, who lived in different countries at different times, investigated different questions, and found different answers. That's a tip-off that the units named for them are completely different things, and can't be converted into each other. 'Newton' is a measure of force. If it pushes through a distance, then (energy) is produced, equal to the product of the number of Newtons multiplied by the distance in meters, and expressed in Joules. If the force pushes against a brick wall and doesn't move through a distance, there are a lot of Newtons there, but the number of Joules of energy produced is zero.
What is the definition of work'?
Is done when a force exerted on an object causes that object to move some distance; equals to force times distance; measured in joules (j)
If an object is moved 14 meters and 83 joules What is the force?
Assuming the force doesn't change, and the force and movement are in the same direction, the energy (the joules) is the product of distance and force. Thus, you just need to divide the energy by the distance.
What type of energy is it when an object is moved against a force?
Mechanical energy is transferred by a force to a moving object.
What distance was an object moved by a force of 40 N if the work was 720 Joules?
In this case,Work done = Force x Distance ,So, Distance = Work done/force = 720/40 = 15 metres.*Note : If the force tends to slow the object down, then Workdone = -(Force x Distance )
How much work is done to push an object 5 meters using 100N of force?
Work = force x distance. Answer is in joules.
How much work in joules is performed when a force of 800.0 N is exerted while pushing a crate across a level floor for a distance of 1.5 meters?
We must assume that the force pushes parallel to the floor.Work = (force) x (distance) = (800) x (1.5) = 1,200 newton-meters = 1,200 joules
What distance was an object moved by a force of 45 N if the work was 675 Joules?
The distance moved by the object can be calculated by dividing the work done by the force applied. In this case, the distance is 15 meters.
How much work is done by a force of 10N in moving on object through a distance of 4m in the direction of the force?
Work = force x distance Work = 10N x 4m= 40 joules
An object with a mass of 21 kg is lifted through a distance of 7 meters how much work is done?
Work = (force) x (distance) = 7 x 2.4 = 16.8 joules
How do you determine how much work is done?
First you have to find the force F=(mass/weight of object)*(9.8) Once you find force Work=(Force)*(Distance) Your answer will be in joules
If a worker pushes horizontally on a large crate with a force of 298 newtons and the crate moved 6.5 meters how much work do he do?
Work = force x distance = Newtons x meters = 1937 Joules.
How move a 25 n object 5 metershow much work did you do?
Work = Force*Distance = 25*5 = 125 Joules.
