Caculating work ( work = Force . Distance )

Front

What is the formula for calculating work?

Back

Work = Force × Distance

Front

What is work defined as in physics?

Back

Work is done when a force causes an object to move in the direction of the force.

Front

What are the units of work?

Back

Joules (J)

Front

What is the unit of force?

Back

Newtons (N)

Front

If a force of 10 N moves an object 5 meters, how much work is done?

Back

50 J

Front

Is lifting an object against gravity an example of work?

Back

Yes

Front

What is the relationship between force, distance, and work?

Back

Work increases with greater force or greater distance.

Front

If no movement occurs, is work done?

Back

No, work is only done when there is movement.

Front

What is the effect of direction on work?

Back

Work is only done if the force and movement are in the same direction.

Front

If a person pushes a wall with a force of 100 N but the wall does not move, how much work is done?

Back

0 J
