The SI unit of work is the:

  1. Newton (N)
  2. Pascal (Pa)
  3. Watt (W)
  4. Joule (J)
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. Joule (J)

Work = Force × displacement, so its unit is N × m = joule (J). We have 1 J = 1 N × 1 m. So 1 J = 1 kg·m²·s⁻². Watt is the unit of power, newton of force, pascal of pressure.

When a goalkeeper stops a football, the force she applies on the ball does:

  1. Positive work
  2. Infinite work
  3. Zero work
  4. Negative work
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. Negative work

The force she applies on the ball is opposite to the ball's direction of motion (it's trying to stop the ball). When force and displacement are in opposite directions, the work done is negative.

A girl applies a force of 50 N to push a box and the box moves 4 m in the direction of the force. How much work is done?

  1. 100 J
  2. 12.5 J
  3. 54 J
  4. 200 J
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. 200 J

Work = Force × displacement = 50 N × 4 m = 200 J. The force and displacement are in the same direction, so the work is positive.
