Understanding Work, Force, and Distance

This video tutorial from MooMooMath and Science explains how to use the formula 'work equals force times distance' to calculate either force or distance. It provides several examples, including calculating the force exerted by a runner, the distance a sled is pushed, the force needed to move a chair, and the distance a bike is moved. The video emphasizes understanding the relationship between work, force, and distance, and encourages kindness.

What is the formula for calculating work?

• Work = Distance / Force

• Work = Force x Distance

• Work = Force / Distance

• Work = Force + Distance

If a runner does 6000 joules of work over 30 meters, what is the force exerted?

• 400 Newtons

• 300 Newtons

• 200 Newtons

• 100 Newtons

John pushes a sled with 16 joules of work using 8 Newtons of force. How far did he push it?

• 3 meters

• 1 meter

• 4 meters

• 2 meters

What is the force required to move a chair 20 meters with 500 joules of work?

• 20 Newtons

• 30 Newtons

• 15 Newtons

• 25 Newtons

A bike is moved by a force of 20 Newtons with 1600 joules of work. What is the distance covered?

• 90 meters

• 70 meters

• 60 meters

• 80 meters
