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 )

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.


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.


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.


Force is applied to an object and the object is moved over a distance in the same direction of the applied force is the definition of?

Work is applied to an object and the object is moved over a distance in the same direction of the applied force.


What is the relationship of work and energy?

Work is equal to the energy used to move an object. Shown as: work done (Joules) = Force (Newtons) X Distance moved (metres)

Which activity describes work being done on an object?

A person pushing a box across a floor:· Mass of box = 20 KG, Weight of Box = 196.2· Distance moved in the direction of the force = 2m· Work Done = Force X Distance ( in the direction of the force), 196.2 X 2= 392.4 Joules


Does work depend only on how far the object moves yes or no?

No. Work depends on the force applied and the distance moved.


When work is being done an object is being what?

Moved. Work is defined as a force acting on an object through a distance.
