    Does the distance moved depend only on force and work, not mass?

    Oh I see what you're saying, I guess my teacher didn't convey that point very well^^

    Why does the work formula give the same distance regardless of mass?

    Homework Statement Our teacher made an unconvincing argument based on this example: If a horizontal force of 15 N were a applied to a 2 kg block, and the work done was 20 J, what distance did the object move? 2. The attempt at a solution Using W=F*d the teacher solved this: 20 J=15 N*x ->...
