Ok here are the answers....

1. It is the work done when a force of 1 newton is applied to an object for a distance of 1 meter.
2. 200 joules
3. 25 joules
4. 0 joules
Okay Okay so I got I 2/4 so I did not want anyone to get that so here are the 100% correct answers!

A joule is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is named after the English physicist James Prescott Joule. One joule is equal to the work done by a one newton force acting over a one-meter distance in the direction of the force.

To better understand what a joule is, let me explain how you can calculate it. The formula to calculate the energy (E) in joules is given by E = F × d × cosθ, where F is the magnitude of the force applied, d is the displacement or distance covered, and θ is the angle between the force and the direction of motion.

For example, if you exert a force of 1 newton on an object for a distance of 1 meter in the direction of the force, you would have done 1 joule of work.

Joules are commonly used in physics to measure various forms of energy such as mechanical, electrical, and thermal energy. It helps us quantify and compare the amount of energy in different physical systems.

It's worth noting that joules are also used outside of physics. They can be used to measure the energy content of food, the capacity of batteries, or the power output of electronic devices.
