A constant 20-N force pushes a small ball in the direction of the force over a distance of $5.0 \mathrm{m}$. What is the work done by the force?
A $0.180-\mathrm{kg}$ ball falls $2.5 \mathrm{m} .$ How much work does the force of gravity do on the ball?

Energy and Work
A baseball of mass 0.25 kg is hit at home plate with a speed of $40 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$. When it lands in a seat in the left-field bleachers a horizontal distance $120 \mathrm{m}$ from home plate, it is moving at $30 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$. If the ball lands $20 \mathrm{m}$ above the spot where it was hit, how much work is done on it by air resistance?
