What is work?
Work is defined as the product of applied force and the distance through which the body is displaced on which the force is applied.
Work may be zero, positive and negative.it depends on the direction of the body displaced. if the body is displaced in the same direction of the force it will be positive
While if the displacement is in the opposite direction of the force applied the work will be negative work.
[tex]\rm Work = \rm Force \times \rm Displacement[/tex]
[tex]\rm Work = 8000\times 15[/tex]
Work = 120000 Nm
Hence the work done by the elevator will be 120, 000 Joule or 120,000 Nm
