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.

How many newtons of force is needed to move 1 pound?

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.


What quantity is used to measure force?

Element and compounds can move from one phase to another phase when special physical forces are present.


What cause an object to move?

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.


What is the force needed to move an object and the distance it is moved in the direction of the force?

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.


Which of newton's laws desrcibes the motion of an object that has a net force of 0?

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 scietifically when 1000 of force to an object with 1100N of resistance force?

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.


Where do joules and kilo joules come from?

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.


How Calculate the work done to move a dresser 7 meter using a force of 2.5 newton?

To calculate work done, use the formula: Work = Force x Distance. Substitute the values into the formula: Work = 2.5 N x 7 m = 17.5 Joules. Therefore, the work done to move the dresser 7 meters using a force of 2.5 Newtons is 17.5 Joules.


You applied 50 newton force to a box but it did not move he applied 2 newton force to an apple and moved it 1 meter who did more work?

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.


How much work is done to move a 10000 Newton Car 20 miles?

Work is calculated as force multiplied by distance. In this case, the work done to move a 10000 Newton car 20 miles would be 200,000 Joules. (Work = force x distance)


Do force always in motion?

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)


What did newton believe was the force to move things?

Gravity


Calculate the work done to move a dresser 7 meters using a force of 2.5 newtons?

To calculate the work done, you would multiply the force applied (2.5 N) by the distance moved (7 m). Work = Force x Distance. So, the work done to move the dresser 7 meters with a force of 2.5 newtons would be 17.5 joules.


It takes you 10 seconds and 100 N of force to move a shopping cart 10 meters to the checkstand?

How much power would a person use to move a piano 10 meters in 5 seconds using a force of 100 newtons?

Power is equal to work done divided by time, where work done is force multiplied by distance. In this case, the work done is 100 newtons * 10 meters = 1000 joules. Therefore, the power used would be 1000 joules / 5 seconds = 200 watts.


How much work is being done if you move a rock 5 meters with a force of 6 newtons?

Work = force x distance = (6) x (3) = 18 joules.


If 68 joules of work were necessary to move a 4 newton crate how far was the crate moved?

The work done is given by the formula Work = Force x Distance. Rearranging this formula we find Distance = Work / Force. Plugging in the values given, we get Distance = 68 joules / 4 newtons = 17 meters. So, the crate was moved 17 meters.
