Open in App
Solution

  1. Work is completed when a force applied to an object pushes that thing. Work is calculated by multiplying a force by an object's total displacement.
  2. Work is the product of the component of the force in the direction of the displacement and the magnitude of this displacement.
  3. Formula to calculate the work:W=Fcosθd=F·d.
  4. Where, W is work done, F is force, d is displacement, θ is the angle between the force vector and the displacement vector.
  5. The unit of work is joule
  6. Work in mechanics examines the energy move that takes place while an object is shifted over a distance by an outer force, at least a portion of which is applied in the direction of the movement.
