Starting formula
Algebra: Divide each side by F
Algebra: Cancel F's on right side
Algebra: Switch left and right sides
Plug in numbers with units
Divide: 120 / 16 = 7.5
Final result with significant figures and unit
A force of 16
N does 120 J of work on an object. Over what displacement did this
force work?
force: F = 16 N
work: W = 120 J
