Would you do more work moving 100 boxes weighing 12N for 1m or moving a 1000N box, 30cm? Support your answer.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The second box

Explanation:

Work done is the force applied to move a body through a particular distance.

Work done  = Force x distance

For the first box:

Weight  = 12N

Distance  = 1m

  Work done  = 12 x 1 = 12J

For the second box;

 Weight  = 1000N

 Distance  = 30cm  = 0.3m

 Work done  = 1000 x 0.3  = 300J

The second box has a higher work done.
