Problem

25\,\text{N}

force is applied perpendicular to the end of a

0.30\,\text{m}

wrench to loosen a bolt. If the bolt turns through

120^{\circ}

while the force is applied, how much work is done on the bolt by the force? (a)

3.1\times10^{1}\,\text{J}

(b)

5.2\times10^{1}\,\text{J}

(c)

1.6\times10^{1}\,\text{J}

(d)

9.0\times10^{0}\,\text{J}
