The work done by the mule over the given distance is 500J.
Given the data in the question;
- Force applied; [tex]F = 50N = 50kg.m/s^2[/tex]
- Distance covered; [tex]s = 10m[/tex]
- Work done; [tex]W = \ ?[/tex]
Work
Work is simply referred to as the measure of energy transfer that takes place when an object is pushed or pulled by an external force over a given distance.
It is expressed;
[tex]W = F * s[/tex]
Where F is force applied and s is distance covered.
To determine the work done by the mule, we substitute our given values into the expression above.
[tex]W = F * s\\\\W = 50kgm/s^2 * 10m\\\\W = 500kgm^2/s^2\\\\W = 500J[/tex]
Therefore, the work done by the mule over the given distance is 500J.
