Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A climber applies a force of 300 N to lift their backpack vertically for a height of 4 meters. How much work is done by the climber?

💡 Hint: Use the formula W = F × d to find the total work done.

Challenge 2 Hard

Calculate the work done when pushing an object at an angle of 30 degrees to the horizontal for a distance of 5 m with a force of 50 N.

💡 Hint: Remember to account for the angle using cosine.
