Work Done by a Constant Force

Work Done by a Constant Force#

Calculate the work done by a constant force of magnitude \(F = \) 13.7 \(N\) applied over a displacement of magnitude \(\Delta r = \) 36.6 \(m\) for all four of the diagrams.

Image of the force acting at different angles to the displacement.
Long Description of image: Image of the force acting at different angles to the displacement.
Figure a shows the force acting perpendicular to the displacement.
Figure b shows the force acting at an angle of sixty degrees to the displacement. The force F is horizontal and acts to the right.
Figure c shows the force acting parallel to the displacement and in the same direction.
Figure d shows the force acting parallel to the displacement but in the opposite direction.
