A forklift does 450 J of work to lift a 150 N hot tub. How high is the hot tub lifted? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
The hot tub is lifted BLANK m.

Respuesta :

There are already 2 givens, hence we can do direct substitution to get the answer. To make the process simpler, derive the distance formula from the Work formula.

Work = Force x Distance

Distance = [tex] \frac{Work}{Force} [/tex]


Work is 450J while the force is 150N hot tub

To get the proper units, get the equivalent of Joule to eliminate newton. A joule Is equal to 1 N-m

Distance = [tex] \frac{450N-m}{150N}[/tex]
Distance = 3m

Hence, the hot tub is lifted 3 meters.

Answer:

The hot tub is lifted  3 m.
