Work =
(force on an object) times (displacement of the object during the time the force is applied to it).
When a force and displacement are perpendicular to each other, no work is done because the force is not acting in the same direction as the displacement. Work is defined as the product of force and displacement in the direction of the force, so when they are perpendicular, the force does not contribute to the displacement and no work is done.
True. When the force is perpendicular to the direction of motion, no work is done because work is the product of force and displacement in the direction of the force. Since there is no displacement in the direction of the force, no work is done.
The direction of the applied force affects the direction of the displacement of the book. If the force is applied in the same direction as the displacement, work is done. If the force is applied perpendicular to the displacement, no work is done. If the force is applied opposite to the displacement, negative work is done.
Work is only done when a force causes a displacement in the direction of the force. If the force is applied but there is no movement or displacement, then no work is done. Work is calculated as force multiplied by the distance moved in the direction of the force.
Work done by a force is measured as the product of the force applied on an object and the displacement of the object in the direction of the force. Mathematically, work (W) is calculated as W = force (F) × displacement (d) × cos(θ), where θ is the angle between the force and the displacement vectors. The unit of work is the joule (J).

The work done by the coolie is zero because the force he exerts is in the vertical direction (lifting the load against gravity) while the displacement is in the horizontal direction. Work is only done when the force and displacement are in the same direction.
In order for work to be done, two things must be present: force and displacement. Force is applied to an object to move it, causing it to undergo a displacement in the direction of the force. Work is calculated as the product of force and displacement in the direction of the force.
When a force is perpendicular to the direction of motion, no work is done. This is because work is defined as the product of force and displacement in the direction of the force. If the force is perpendicular, then there is no displacement in the direction of the force and thus no work is done.
WORK = FORCE x DISPLACEMENT
Any force can produce work if it causes displacement. If displacement is in opposite direction of force, work done will be negative and if displacement is in direction of force work done will be positive. If there is no displacement, work done is zero. Eg: Gravitational force pulls you down towards earth, in pulling you down it does work on you which gets stored in form of potential energy. Energy for A+
You can measure the amount of work done with the formula W=Fd where W is work, F is force and d is displacement. The SI unit for work is joules (J) and if you're using thatformula, force must be in newtons (N) and displacement in meters (m). Remember that if the displacement is 0, work done is 0. If a person went around a track, and ended where he started, the displacement is 0. Displacement is the distance measures from where something starts and where it ends. Not necessarily the distance covered. Also, work is a vector quantity as is force and displacement. Hope this helps!
Not necessarily. Work in the scientific sense is only done when the force causes displacement in the direction of the force. If the force and displacement are perpendicular, no work is done. Work is defined as the product of the force applied and the distance moved in the direction of that force.
