# A force \(F\) is exerted by a broom handle on the head of a broom, which has a mass \(m\). The handle is at an angle \(\theta\) to the horizontal. The work done by the force on the head of the broom as it moves a distance \(d\) across a horizontal floor is

A force \(F\) is exerted by a broom handle on the head of a broom, which has a mass \(m\). The handle is at an angle \(\theta\) to the horizontal. The work done by the force on the head of the broom as it moves a distance \(d\) across a horizontal floor is

- **A.** \(Fdsin\theta\)
- **B.** \(Fdcos\theta\)
- **C.** \(Fmcos\theta\)
- **D.** \(Fmtan\theta\)
- **E.** \(Fmdsin\theta\)
