Work is the result of applying a force over a certain distance in a system. It is defined as the transfer of energy that occurs when a force is applied to an object and causes it to move a certain distance in the direction of the force.

When a force is exerted over a distance its what energy?

When a force is exerted over a distance, it is work energy. Work is defined as the process of moving an object by applying force. This work energy can result in the object gaining kinetic energy or potential energy.


Why is velocity-displacement divided by time?

velocity means the distance traveled in certain time and in a certain direction. Therefore: velocity is the result of dividing the traveled distance by time taken, and adding a direction to it.


Distance from origin to point?

The origin on a graph is the point (0,0).You can find the distance to a point by applying the Pythagorean theorem:Square the x coordinate and add it to the square of the y - coordinate of the point.Now take the square root of your answer.The result is the straight line distance from the origin to the point.


Why applying force to an object does not always result in work being done?

When a force (no matter how large it may be) is applied to any object without a distance being moved,it cannot be workdone because,workdone = force x distance.

What is the result of applying the s2 operator to the given function?

The result of applying the s2 operator to a function is the second derivative of the function with respect to the variable s.


How does acceleration affect distance?

Acceleration affects distance by influencing how quickly an object changes its speed. The higher the acceleration, the faster the object will cover a certain distance in a given amount of time. A higher acceleration will result in a shorter distance covered in a shorter time, whereas a lower acceleration will result in a longer distance covered over the same time period.


How does pi work?

pi is just a number, it is not a machine. It is defined as the circumference/diameter of any circle, the result although defined by a ratio is an irrational number (can't be writt en as a ratio of integers). Pi is also, 3.14, as in the distance of a circle.


Explain why applying force to an object does not always result in work being done?

When a force (no matter how large it may be) is applied to any object without a distance being moved,it cannot be workdone because,workdone = force x distance.


What is the difference between a formally defined crime and a materially defined crime?

Formally defined crimes: Definitional elements proscribe a certain type of conduct irrespective of the result, i.e. rape, perjury, possession of drugs, driving negligently Materially defined crimes: (result crimes/consequence crimes) Definitional elements do not proscribe a specific conduct, but any conduct which causes a specific condition, i.e. murder, arson, culpable homicide. The act results in a certain condition, such as death of a person. Thus X's act causes the condition of Y, being death etc…


What is the circumference of the eath?

About 40,000 kilometers. That's how the meter was originally defined (1 / 10,000,000 of the distance between a pole and the equator). Note that the result will vary slightly, depending on whether you take the circumference around the equator, or over the poles - Earth is an ellipsoid.About 40,000 kilometers.

Can the speed of light be ligislated?

Sort of. The meter is currently defined to be exactly the distance that light, in a vacuum, travels in 1 / 299,792,458 of a second. The result of this is that the speed of light is DEFINED to be a certain value (299,792,458 meters / second); the meter is derived from the speed of light. Of course, you can't legislate to make the speed of light in a vacuum faster or slower; or rather, if you do, light won't care about such legislation. The legislation only affects the numeric values assigned to such a speed.
