  • Work Done by a Force: Understanding Force, Distance, and Energy
    Let's break down the concept of work to figure this out:

    Work is the amount of energy transferred by a force when it moves an object over a distance. It's calculated using the formula:

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

    Here's the analysis:

    * Scenario 1: Force = 2 N, Distance = 3 m

    * Work = 2 N * 3 m = 6 Joules (J)

    * Scenario 2: Force = 2 N, Distance = 1 m

    * Work = 2 N * 1 m = 2 Joules (J)

    Conclusion:

    More work is done when the force of 2 N moves the object 3 meters, as it results in 6 Joules of work, compared to 2 Joules of work when the object is moved 1 meter.
