A farmhand pushes a 23 kg bale of hay 3.9 m across the floor of a barn. If she exerts a horizontal force of 91 N on the hay, how much work has she done?

W = 354.9 J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a bale of hay, m = 23 kg

The displacement, d = 3.9 m

The horizontal force exerted on the hay, F = 91 N

We need to find the work done. We know that,

We know that,

Work done, W = Fd

So,

W = 91 N × 3.9 m

W = 354.9 J

So, the required work done is 354.9 J.

the focus of lesson 1 is newton's first law of motion - sometimes referred to as the law of inertia. newton's first law of motion is often stated as. an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
