Question
A crate is pulled by a force of $628 \mathrm{~N}$ across the floor by a worker using a rope making an angle of $46.0^{\circ}$ with the floor. If the crate is pulled $15.0 \mathrm{~m}$, how much work does the force on the rope do?
Step 1
The work done by a force is given by the formula: \[ W = Fd\cos(\theta) \] where \(W\) is the work done, \(F\) is the force applied, \(d\) is the distance moved, and \(\theta\) is the angle between the force and the direction of motion. Show more…

A crate is pulled by a force of 628 N across the floor by a worker using a rope making an angle of 46.0° with the floor. If the crate is pulled 15.0 m, how much work does the force on the rope do?
A rope is used to pull a metal box a distance of $15.0 \mathrm{m}$ across the floor. The rope is held at an angle of $46.0^{\circ}$ with the floor, and a force of $628 \mathrm{N}$ is applied to the rope. How much work does the force on the rope do?
