I agree wtih Paddle2See: you know the force value and the distance, so nothing more counts to calculate the work. However, as this one is matter to older pupils, I must say that the 60N only overcomes the attrition force, (that depends on the pack weight, the materials in contact and the surfaces conditions). (to be continued).
(continuation) If you had to push the pack up in a blent plane you'll need to do some more force to defeat also part of the pack weight, (depending on the slope); and if you had to lift it up, then you should win against the whole pack weight. In these cases, you and the weight (this is a force, too) will accomplish some work toghether.
I am sorry. I thought you meant significant figures. Today, I went with my Mom to the grocery shop and I noticed that there was a type of snack called Fig Newtons. I never ate it before so I did not know about it. Thanks, Ahaan.
I had another thought when I reviewed it again...you say "since it is a level surface" - but does it really matter if it is level? As long as the force is constant through the motion, it doesn't matter what direction the motion is in. It could be inclined or even vertical - just so long as the force is constant. Something to think about :)
I feel so honored that such knowledgeable people such as you and dapontes have joined in and I feel I am in a classroom and learning so much. Scratch is a such a fun way to learn. Regards,
Ahaan.
I know that, in general, the work W(F) = F*s*cosφ where φ is the angle between (vector) F and (vector) s. Ahaanomegas use the formula W=F*s then F is collinear with s. Force = constant means constant in both: magnitude and direction.
Very nice! It looks accurate to me. You may confuse some people when you switch over to exponential notation though - maybe you can add a short explanation of how that works and why people do it. But maybe not...that's getting off track a bit. Maybe another project to explain how that works :)

Thank you for your advice, Sir.I am really grateful that you took so much time to give me this advice. Regards, Ahaan.

I do not understand
Nice and educational project. Music is nice too...
Here are some of my plenty other projects: (link to project) (link to project) (link to project) (link to project) (link to project) I hope you like them. Thank you very much for your support. Regards, Ahaan.
(view all replies)Thank you very much. My Mom and I worked together on the music because she is a songwriter and I am learning music, too. Regards, Ahaan.
Good job. Very interesting.
Thank you very much. Regards, Ahaan.
nice
Thank you.
(view all replies)meee yowww, me like fig newtons best! lol. added some tags. bye now, meee yowww.

I love Significant Figures too. Thank you for the wonderful tags too. Regards, Ahaan.

I like that idea a lot! I might as well make another project on scientific notation. Thank you, Regards, Ahaan.
