Samuel applies a horizontal force of 35.0 N to a sleigh over a distance of 1.50 m along a level surface. Calculate the work done on the sleigh by samuel. show your work.

52.5 J

Explanation:

Work done (W) is the product of the force (F) applied on a body and the distance (s) moved in the direction of the force.

i.e W = F × s

It is a scalar quantity and measured in Joules (J).

Given that: F = 35.0 N and s = 1.50 m, then;

W = F × s

W = 35.0 × 1.5

   = 52.5 J

Therefore, the work done on the sleigh by Samuel is 52.5 J.

force required to detach it is given by

charges are taken to be fundamental charge

now we have

so above is the minimum distance at which it will detach
