Work done and energy transfer
Question
- A. 200 J — application focus for work done
- B. This confuses distance and displacement and does not answer Work done by a force.
- C. This is too vague because it does not use the force or motion quantity named in the objective.
- D. This reverses the physical cause and effect for Work done and energy transfer.
Answer
The correct answer is: 200 J — application focus for work done
Explanation
The correct option is 200 J — application focus for work done. 200 J — application focus for work done is correct because it matches the approved learning objective to calculate work done from force and distance. This answer belongs to Work done by a force within Work done and energy transfer, so it must use precise AQA GCSE Physics forces and motion vocabulary. The other options are wrong because they either confuse distance and displacement, omit the required force or motion condition, or move away from the exact subtopic being tested.
Common mistake
Confusing Work Done and Energy Transferred
Students often confuse work done with energy transferred, thinking they are the same concept.
Remember that work done is specifically the energy transferred when a force moves an object through a distance. Focus on the equation W = F x s to clarify this distinction.
