There is motion but it is non- uniform motion. It cannot be seen by us because it's motin is very slow

The work is calculated as force times distance. If the force acts constantly without there being any movement, there will therefore not be any work done.

According to Newton's First (or Second) Law, the net force must be zero in this case. Second Law: F=ma (force = mass x acceleration). If the velocity is constant, then there is no acceleration, hence, there is no force either. (It is possible that there are forces acting on the object, but the vector sum of all those forces must be zero.)

If an object is moving at a constant speed and in a straight line, then either there is

no force at all acting on the object, or else all the forces acting on it add up to zero.

The object exhibits constant acceleration in the same direction as the net force.

There is no force acting and therefore no work done.


How much work is done over 10 meters if the force is 600 newtons?

For a constant force, work = force x distance. In other words, just multiply the two. The answer is in joules.


Why don't you do any work when you carry an object art a constant velocity?

Well, if you do that for a while, you could certainly raise a sweat, and you would say that you've done a lot of work. But in the strict Physics definition of "work", none of it has been done to the object you carried. The strict definition is: Force acting through a distance. Referring to the object you carry: -- You don't move it vertically. You just hold it there against the force of gravity, but your vertical force doesn't move it up or down. So no work is done vertically. -- Horizontally, the speed is constant. No force is required to maintain a constant speed, so no work is done horizontally either.


How much work done on an object when a constant force of 20 N pushed it 2 m away?

The work is 20x2 = 40 Joules.


What is the work done when a force of 20N moves a book 3.5M what is the potential energy?

The idea is to multiply force times distance. This assumes that both are in the same direction, and that the force is constant. If the force is done against a gravitational field, or some other so-called "conservative force", then all the work done will be converted to potential energy. If it is done against friction, the work is basically wasted. It is converted to heat, and NOT to potential energy.


What does watt equal?

The watt is a measurement of work done by an object at constant velocity and under constant force. 1 watt, therefore, is equal to 1 Joule per second.


What is the formula of calculating the amount of work done by force?

The simplest formula is: work = force x distance. This formula applies when the force is constant, and force and movement are in the same direction. Otherwise, the dot product should be used. This still assumes that the force is constant. If it isn't, an integral is used.It will be nice to use this in common. Work = Force vector . displacement vectorSO W = F s cos@Here @ is the angle between the force and displacement


What can be said about the speed of a particle if the net work done on it is zero?

In that case, basically no force acts on the particle, and the particle moves at a constant speed. This constant speed may, or may not, be zero.


What equals 1 watt?

The watt is a measurement of work done by an object at constant velocity and under constant force. 1 watt, therefore, is equal to 1 Joule per second.


When force and motion are going in the same direction is work being done?

When force is opposite to the direction of motion, no work is done. The object to which the force is applied must move in the direction of the force in order for work to be done.
