The work done by a body on the application of a constant force is the product of the constant force and the distance travelled by the body in the direction of the force. Express this in the form of a linear equation in two variables (work w and distance d) and draw its graph by taking the constant force as 3 units. What is the work done when the distance travelled is 2 units? Verify it by plotting it on the graph.

The equation is w = 3d. For a distance of d = 2 units, substituting it into the linear equation gives the work done as w = 3(2) = 6 units. Plotting (2, 6) confirms this on the graph.
