Here's the breakdown:

* Force: A push or pull that can cause an object to accelerate.

* Distance: The amount of space an object moves.

Work is the amount of energy transferred when a force acts over a certain distance. It's a scalar quantity, meaning it has magnitude but no direction.

Formula:

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

Units:

The standard unit of work is the joule (J), which is equal to one newton-meter (N·m).
