Here's a breakdown:
* Input Force: The force applied to an object to cause movement.
* Distance: The displacement of the object due to the applied force.
Formula for work:
Work (W) = Force (F) x Distance (d)
Units of work:
The standard unit of work is the joule (J), which is equal to one Newton-meter (N·m).
Example:
If you push a box with a force of 10 Newtons and move it 5 meters, the work done is:
W = 10 N x 5 m = 50 J
Important Note: Work is only done when there is a displacement of the object in the direction of the applied force. If the object does not move, no work is done, even if a force is applied.
