Student 1 lifts a box with a force of 500 N and sets it on a tabletop 1.2 m high. Student 2 pushes an identical box up a 5 m ramp from the floor to the top of the same table. Which student did the MOST work?

The student who did the most work is student 2 with 2500 Joules.

Given the following data:

  • Force 1 = 500 Newton
  • Distance 1 = 1.2 meter
  • Force 2 = 500 Newton
  • Distance 2 = 5 meter

To determine which of the students did the most work:

Mathematically, the work done by an object is given by the formula;

[tex]Work\;done = Force \times distance[/tex]

For student 1:

[tex]Work\;done = 500 \times 1.2[/tex]

Work done = 600 Joules

For student 2:

[tex]Work\;done = 500 \times 5[/tex]

Work done = 2500 Joules.

Therefore, the student who did the most work is student 2 with 2500 Joules.
