Homework Statement
this is the scenario
A horizontal force of 80N acts on a mass of 6 Kg resting on a horizontal surface. The mass is initially at rest and covers a distance of 5m in 0.92s under the action of the force. Assuming there are no energy losses due to air resistance and therefore that the acceleration is constant
Calculate the total energy expanded in the acceleration
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
By total energy expanded do I need the:
Work done = force X distance = 80 X 5 = 400 joules
Or have I got to find something else?
Thanks
