  • Calculating Work Done: Force, Distance & Joules - Physics Explained
    Here's how to calculate the work done:

    Understanding Work

    Work is done when a force causes an object to move a certain distance. It's calculated using the following formula:

    * Work (W) = Force (F) x Distance (d)

    Applying the Formula

    * Force (F) = 30 N

    * Distance (d) = 3 m

    * Work (W) = 30 N * 3 m = 90 Joules (J)

    Answer

    The force of 30 N exerted over a distance of 3 m does 90 Joules of work.
