A box is pushed at a constant speed of 1.5 m/s for 12 seconds using a force of 50 Newtons across the floor. Calculate the distance the box travelled using. *

Distance = 18 meters

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Force = 50 N

Speed = 1.5 m/s

Time = 12 seconds

To find the distance travelled;

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the equation;

Making distance the subject of formula, we have;

Distance = speed * time

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Distance = 1.5 * 12

Distance = 18 meters

Additionally, to find the workdone;

Workdone = force * distance

Workdone = 50 * 18

Workdone = 900 Joules
