Work is energy, and work done by a force equals force times distance moved IN THE DIRECTION OF THE FORCE

Where is work done?

If you mean "work" in the way it is used in physics, the basic definition of work is force x distance. In other words, if you apply a force over a certain distance, work is done.


Why does we say that one joule work has been done a force on an object..?

One joule of work is done when a force of one newton displaces an object by one meter in the direction of the force. This definition is based on the concept of work as the product of force and displacement in the direction of the force. By defining work in this way, we can quantify the transfer of energy between a force and an object.


Who studies motion force energy to explain the way things work?

scientists


What is the resistance force or the work a machine dose to move an object over some distance?

The resistance force is the opposing force a machine must overcome to move an object over a distance. The work done by the machine is the product of the force applied and the distance over which the object is moved.


One way a machine can make work easier for you is by?

by changing the direction of the force you applied


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.


Why is the term energy is closely linked with the idea of force and motion?

Mechanical energy is equal to force x distance. Actually, work is defined this way, but you can think of work as a transfer of mechanical energy.


How force and energy are related?

Force is the interaction that causes an object to accelerate, while energy is the capacity to do work. When a force acts on an object and causes it to move, work is done and energy is transferred. In this way, force can change the energy of an object by doing work on it.


Can electric force do work?

Well, that's actually the way that electric motors operate, and I think you'll agree that they do plenty of work.


Can a centripetal force ever do work on an object. explain?

Centripetal force refers to the force that acts on a body moving in a circular path. It does not do work on an object because it acts perpendicular to the motion of the body. The work done on a rotating object is zero.


What is the equation for force using work?

Force that did the work = (work done) divided by (distance the force acted through)


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.
