Question

a forklift does 450 j of work to lift a 150 n hot tub. how high is the hot tub lifted? round your answer to the nearest whole number. the hot tub is lifted \boxed{} m.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall work formula

Work $W = F \times d$, where $F$ is force, $d$ is distance (height here). Rearrange to solve for $d$: $d = \frac{W}{F}$

Step2: Substitute given values

$W=450\ \text{J}$, $F=150\ \text{N}$. Substitute into formula:
$d = \frac{450}{150}$

Step3: Calculate and round result

$d = 3$ (already a whole number)

Answer:

3
