(Indicates a review question, which means it requires only a basic understanding of the material to answer. Questions without this designation typically require integrating or extending the concepts presented thus far.) If we know that a force of 5 N acts on an object while it moves 2 meters, can we calculate how much work was done with no other information? Explain.
