Understanding Work

Work is done when a force causes an object to move a certain distance. The formula for work is:

* Work (W) = Force (F) x Distance (d)

Applying the Formula

1. Force (F): 800.0 N

2. Distance (d): 1.5 meters

Calculation

Work (W) = 800.0 N * 1.5 meters = 1200 joules (J)

Answer: The work performed is 1200 joules.
