You push a refrigerator with a force of 100 N. If you move the refrigerator a distance of 5 m while you are pushing, how much work do you do?

Given values are:

Force,

Displacement,

The work done:

=

By putting the values, we get

=

=

Thus the answer above is right.

The work done to push the refrigerator is 500 Nm.

Explanation:

Work done is the measure of force required to move any object from one point to another. So it is calculated as the product of force and displacement.

If the force increases the work done will increase and similarly, the increase in displacement increases the work done. So to push the refrigerator work should be done on the object and not by the object.

As the force is 100 N and the displacement is 5 m then, work done can be measured as

Work = Force × Displacement

Work = 100 × 5 = 500 Nm

So the work done to push the refrigerator is 500 Nm.

answer: good job it's all correct !
