Work done = resistance force * distancetravelled
>
Say acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 (m/s)/s
Say you lift 100 kg vertically up 0.5 metres:
>
calculate resistance force
f = m * a = 100 * 9.8 = 980 newtons
then: work done =
980 * 0.5 = 490 n-m (joules)
>
if you want power , divide answer by time taken, say it took 0.5 seconds, then:
490 / 0.5 = 980 watts.

How work force and distance related?
Work = force x distance traveled (only when the force and distance are acting in the same direction)
Is work the measure of amount of force needed to move an object a certain distance?
No, work is related to energy, not to force.
What is force multipyed by distance?
Force x distance = energy. (Transfer of energy is usually called "work", but the two concepts are related.)
If force is work divided by distance then distance is force divided by work?
I usually start with the definition of work: Work = force * distance so... Force = work / distance Distance = work / force So, no. You had it backwards.
How is work and power related?
They are both related by a transfer function which is time . And w= force x distance or w= distance x time . P= work / time

How are mass force acceleration force and work related?
Here are two equations that might be useful.Newton's Second Law: force = mass x accelerationDefinition of work: work = force x distance
Force moved through a distance?
Force moved through a distance is work. Work = Force x Distance
How it is friction related with work?
Work = Force x Distance Friction is a force usually operating in the opposite direction to the force being applied. Thus friction adds to the size of the force applied and work is increased.
A boy exerts an average force of 65N when he lifts a box 1.2 meters How much work does he do?
Work is equal to force x distance. If the force is specified in Newtons, and the distance in meters, then the work is in Joules.Work is equal to force x distance. If the force is specified in Newtons, and the distance in meters, then the work is in Joules.Work is equal to force x distance. If the force is specified in Newtons, and the distance in meters, then the work is in Joules.Work is equal to force x distance. If the force is specified in Newtons, and the distance in meters, then the work is in Joules.
Is it possible workdone is zero although body is moving?
Yes, if no force is applied. Work = force x distance, so if the force is zero, no work is done.Yes, if no force is applied. Work = force x distance, so if the force is zero, no work is done.Yes, if no force is applied. Work = force x distance, so if the force is zero, no work is done.Yes, if no force is applied. Work = force x distance, so if the force is zero, no work is done.
What is the formula for determining force and work and power?
Work is force * distance power = force*distance/Time
