Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 6000 \ Joules}}[/tex]
Explanation:
Work is the product of force and distance.
[tex]W=F*d[/tex]
The force is 500 Newtons and the couch is raised 12 meters above the ground.
Substitute these values into the formula.
[tex]W=500 \ N * 12 \ m[/tex]
Multiply.
[tex]W=6000 \ N*m[/tex]
- 1 Newton meter is equal to 1 Joule.
- So, our answer of 6000 N*m equals 6000 J
[tex]W= 6000 \ J[/tex]
The work done to move a 500 Newton couch 12 meters is 6000 Joules. Therefore, choice D is correct.
