An upward force is applied to a 6.0–kilogram box. This force displaces the box upward by 10.00 meters. What is the work done by the force on the box?

Respuesta :

The work done by the force on the box 588 Joule.

What is Potential energy ?

It is the energy that is stored in an object due to its position relative to some zero position.

According to the question,

Given mass of the box (m)  = 6.0 kg

Given displacement of the box =  10.00 m

Hence , the height of the box  (h) = 10.00 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g)  =  9.8 m/s²

Since ,

The upward force was applied to the box, the box moves up to the height.

Therefore, the work done by the ball is the potential energy gained by the ball.

By using the formula of potential energy

P.E. = mgh

= 6 × 9.8 × 10 Joule  = 588 Joule

As we know .

Work done (W) = Potential energy (P.E.)

Work done (W) = 588 Joule

Thus,  588 Joule is the work done by the force on the box.
