Front

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

Back

Work is done when a force causes an object to move a distance.

Front

What is a force?

Newton (N)

Front

Is lifting a book off the ground considered work? Why or why not?

Back

Yes, because a force is applied to move the book a distance against gravity.

Front

What does it mean if no work is done on an object?

Back

If the object does not move, or if the force is applied perpendicular to the direction of motion.

Front

How much work is done if a force of 20 N moves an object 0 m?

Back

0 Joules

Front

What is the difference between work and energy?

Back

Work is the transfer of energy, while energy is the capacity to do work.
