When energy is
transferred
from one object to another,
work
is done on the object
--> e.g. to make an object move, a
force
needs to act on the object
The energy
transferred
to an object and the
work done
on that object are
equal
to each other
--> measured in
joules (J)
W= F*S
W=
Work Done
(
Joules
, J)
F=
Force
(
Newtons
, N)
S=
distance
(
Meters
, M)
Amount of
work done
(w) depends on
size
of
force
(f) appalied to it &
distance
(s) moved
