What is the work done by a horse in displacing a cart through 5 m in the direction of the force if the force applied by the horse is 10 N?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Force = F = 10 N
Displacement = 5 m
Since the force and displacement are acting in the same direction, work done is given by
`:.` Work = `F xx s`
`= 10 xx 5`
`implies` Work done by the horse = 50 J
