The video tutorial demonstrates how to calculate the distance using the formula work equals force times distance. The problem involves a bow hunter shooting an arrow at a deer, with given values for work and force. The instructor explains the formula, sets up the problem, and solves the equation step-by-step to find the distance. The final result is that the distance is 1.5 meters, indicating the deer was directly below the hunter's stand.
