Homework Statement
"You carry your 14.0 kg bag of textbooks horizontally 1.8 m above the ground, at constant velocity for a distance of 25 m. Ignore wind resistance. How much work do you do on the bag in the process?"
Homework Equations
W=Fd
F=ma
The Attempt at a Solution
If work equals force times distance, and force is equal to mass times acceleration, wouldn't the whole thing equal zero because of the constant velocity = no acceleration?
