Understanding the Concepts
* Work: Work is done when a force causes an object to move a certain distance. It's calculated as: Work (W) = Force (F) x Distance (d)
* Force of Gravity: The force of gravity pulls objects towards the center of the Earth. In this case, the force of gravity is 1N (Newton).
* Distance: The object falls 1 meter.
Calculation
* W = F x d
* W = 1 N x 1 m
* W = 1 Joule (J)
Answer: The work done by gravity on the object is 1 Joule.
