Use the definition of work:
work = force x distance
and solve for distance. Since you are using SI units, the distance will be in meters. Note that this is a simplified formula, which assumes (1) that the force is constant, and (2) that the force is applied in the same direction as the movement.
That really depends a lot of friction. If it is a boat floating on the water, a very small force is enough to get it moving.
A Newton is a measure of force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared. One pound of force is the same as 4.4484 newtons. One newton of force is the same as 0.2248 pound.
Element and compounds can move from one phase to another phase when special physical forces are present.
Newton said an object at rest will tend to stay at rest until acted upon by an external force. An object is moved when another force is applied to it. Whether it be from change in potential energy or just direct change in momentum, another force is necessary to move an object at rest.
There is no such thing as an amount of force needed to move a certain distance. Asteroids, comets, moons, and planets have been moving trillions of miles through space for billions of years with either no force on them at all, or no force in the direction they're moving. You may have heard of Newton's First Law. It says that an object with no forces acting on it keeps moving in a straight line at a constant speed, which is kind of another good way of saying that it can move as far as you want it to with no force on it.
First and Third law. The Universe is quaternion consisting of a scalar and three vectors. Newton's 1st law has both forces zero. The 3rd law is a separate statement of the vector force being zero.
What happens is that the resistance of 1100 newton is the MAXIMUM resistance. If a force of 1000 newton is applied, the actual resistance will also be 1000 newton. If a force greater than the maximum force of friction is applied, the object will start to move.
Work = (force) x (distance) = (2.5) x (7) = 17.5 newton-meters = 17.5 joules
The Joule is the unit of energy in the SI (metric) system. 1 Joule is the energy required to move 1 meter against a force of 1 Newton. (The Newton is the force that will accelerate a mass of 1 kg at a rate of 1 meter/sec2). The Kilojoule is 1000 Joules, and is equal to 0.9478 BTU. Also 1 Kilojoule = 737.6 ftlbforce, and 1 Kilojoule per second = 1.341 hp. Joules can be mechanical, electrical, or thermal in origin, and there is the mechanical equivalent of heat, 1 calorie = 4.2 joules. 1 Kilojoule per second = 1 Kilowatt.
Technically, the force does no work unless it acts through a distance. Since the box didn't move,no work was involved there.Concerning the apple, the work done there was (2N x 1m) = 2 newton-meters = 2 joules.
Direction is to the right. Magnitude is 10 Newtons.
A force of 2.5 newtons acting through a distance of 7 meters delivers 17.5 newton meters = 17.5 joules of work.
The application of 75N of force through a distance of 8 meters results in 600 newton-meters = 600 joules of work.
No, it only results in motion if enough force is applied. For instance, if I were to push a box that weighs 200lbs, with only 1 Newton of force, it wouldn't move. Therefore no motion took place(Aka no work was done, measured in Joules)
Work = force x distance = (6) x (3) = 18 joules.
Gravity
We use force to push an object. The SI unit of force is Newton. Newton is the force which can move a body of mass 1 kg with a speed of 1m/s.
Force applied times the distance traveled is work or energy. Think about it...You apply a force to an object, say: push a crate, and you move it a distance. What has been done?? Work. Work is equivalent to energy and is measured in Newton-meters (Nm) or Joules (J).
