A block of mass m is moved over a distance d. An applied force F is opposite to the block’s displacement. How much work is done on the block by the force F?
Added by Najwa K.
Step 1
Step 1: The work done on the block by the force F is given by the formula W = F * d * cos(theta), where F is the magnitude of the force, d is the displacement, and theta is the angle between the force and the displacement vectors. Show more…

A force pushes a block along horizontal. The block undergoes surface against a force of friction F. If displacement is 8 and constant resultant force on the block velocity, the work done by the A) is zero, B) is given by W = F, C) increases the kinetic energy of the block, D) is equal to the work done by the force of friction F, E) increases the potential energy of the block.
