Work = Force x DistanceWork = 400 x 4

Work = 1600 Nm

Work = 1600 Joules

Work = 1600 J

When moving a couch you exert a force of 400N and push it 4M how much work has been done on the couch?

The work done on the couch is given by the formula: Work = Force x Distance. In this case, the work done is 400N x 4m = 1600 J (joules).


What happens to the distance over which you exert your force?

The amount of force you exert remains the same, but the distance over which you exert the force can affect the work done. If you exert a force over a longer distance, you may do more work because the force acts over a greater distance. If the distance over which you exert the force is shorter, the work done may be less.


When you open a door what force do you exert on it is there any work done?

When you open a door, you exert a force in the direction of the door's motion. This force creates torque, which causes the door to rotate around its hinges. Work is done when this force causes the door to move against resistance, such as friction between the door and the door frame.


What work is done when the cushion is picked up and put on the couch?

When the cushion is picked up and put on the couch, work is done against the force of gravity. The work done is equal to the force exerted multiplied by the distance the cushion is lifted. This work provides the cushion with gravitational potential energy as it is raised to a higher position.


What is the ability to exert force for a short time called?

That ability is called power. It measures how quickly work is done.


If you exert a force you will always do work in the scientific sense.?

Not necessarily. Work in the scientific sense is only done when the force causes displacement in the direction of the force. If the force and displacement are perpendicular, no work is done. Work is defined as the product of the force applied and the distance moved in the direction of that force.


How is it possible to exert force but accomplish no work?

Hold a weight steady in your hand. Push a broken-down car that is stuck in the mud.


How much mechanical work is done in holding the brick 1m above the floor?

The mechanical work done in holding a brick 1 meter above the floor is zero, as work is defined as the force applied over a distance. While you exert an upward force equal to the weight of the brick to keep it suspended, there is no displacement in the direction of the force since you are not moving the brick. Thus, even though you are applying force, the lack of movement means no mechanical work is done.


Explain - how you can exert a large force on an object without doing any work?

You can exert a large force on an object without doing any work by pushing against an immovable wall. In this scenario, although a large force is applied, no work is done because there is no displacement of the object in the direction of the force. Work is only done when there is both a force and displacement in the same direction.


What happens when you exert force on an abject and it exerts force on you?

According to Newtons 3rd law, "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction". if you exert force on an object, the object will exert an equal and opposite force on you. when the forces exerted by you and the object balance a state of equilibrium is attained. however if you exert a force greater than the weight of the body, the body begins to move and work is done.


If you exert a force of 10 to lift a box of .9m how much work has been done?

The answer would depend on the units used for the force. Since these are not specified, it is not possible to answer the question.


When force is to the direction of motion no work is done?

No. Only if you are applying the same amount of force then there is no motion. If you are applying more force (the object is moving) then there is work being done.
