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

* Force (F) = 10.0 N

* Distance (d) = 0.75 m

* Work (W) = 10.0 N * 0.75 m = 7.5 Joules (J)

Therefore, you do 7.5 Joules of work to lift the box.
