Question

Using the scientific definition of work, does moving an object a greater amount of distance always require a greater amount of work? Why or Why not?

Answer 1

yes. if you push it farther, then you have to have a greater amount of force upon that object to move it to that destination

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Work done by an object is defined as the product of force acting on it and the distance covered. Mathematically, it is given by :

Work done = force × distance

or

W = F × d

From above equation work done is directly proportional to the force and distance. So, moving an object a greater amount of distance always require a greater amount of work. Hence, this is the required solution.
