If you use a 40 N force to lift a bag, and do 20 J of work, how far do you lift it?
To calculate the distance lifted, we need to use the equation:
work = force x distance
We know that the force is 40 N and the work is 20 J, so we can rearrange the equation to solve for distance:
distance = work / force
Plugging in the values, we get:
distance = 20 J / 40 N
distance = 0.5 meters (or 50 centimeters)
Therefore, you lift the bag 0.5 meters (or 50 centimeters) with a force of 40 N and doing 20 J of work.
To find the distance you lift the bag, you can use the formula for work:
Work = Force x Distance
Given that the force applied is 40 N and the work done is 20 J, you can rearrange the formula to solve for distance:
Distance = Work / Force
Plugging in the values:
Distance = 20 J / 40 N
Therefore, the distance you lift the bag is 0.5 meters.
