Viewing the displacement transformational activities, which are responsive to the necessities of life
Work
Energy transferred to or by means of a force acting on an object through a displacement
Work
Force by person
Displacement
Work is the product of force and displacement
Work is the energy transferred to or by means of a force acting on an object through a displacement
The unit of work in the International System of Units (SI) is the joule (J), which represents the amount of work done when a force of one newton is applied to move an object one meter in the direction of the force
The unit for work is joule
The symbol theta is a variable commonly used to represent an angle
A newtonmeter (N.m) is equivalent to onejoule
Newton meter represents the amount of work done when a force of one newton is applied to move an object one meter in the direction of the force
Work is done when a force causes an object to move a certain distance in the direction of the force
Work is done when:
A force is applied to an object.
The object moves in the direction of the force
Positive Work
When a force applied to an object and the displacement od the object in the same direction. If the anfle between the force vector and the discplacement vector is acute (less than 90 degrees)
Positivework
Same direction. Acute (less than 90 degrees)
Negativework
Opposite direction
Obtuse (greater than 90 degrees)
d to am

Work
F
Force
d
Displacement
Work done is 0 as F and d are perpendicular to each other
Displacement
Work done is positive
Work
A force is applied to an object and the object moves in the direction of the force
Types of work
Positive work
Negative work
Positive work
Force applied to an object and displacement are in the same direction
Negative work
Force and displacement are in opposite directions
Positive work: The angle is less than 90°
Negative work: The angle is greater than 90°
No work: The angle is 90°
WE = F \* D \* cos(angle)
If WE > 0, then work is positive
If WE < 0, then work is negative
If WE = 0, then no work is done
Work = 17900 N \* 25 m \* cos(angle)
No work is done
Zero Displacememt
Force and displacement is perpendicular
Zero force
Zero Displacement
If an object doesnt move
This means that even if force is exerted on an object.
