Question

Tommy does 15 joules of work to push the pencil over 1 meter. How much force did he use?

Answer 1

Work = Force * distance 
F = W/d = 15 / 1 = 15 Newtons

Answer 2

The force that he used is 15 newtons.

Given that,

• There are 15 joules of work for pushing up the pencil.
• And, the distance is 1 meter.

We know that

Work = Force × distance

So, the force = work ÷ distance

= 15 ÷ 1

= 15 newtons  

Therefore we can conclude that the force that he used is 15 newtons.
