Work done is a measure of the energy transferred to or from an object by a force acting on it. It is calculated by multiplying the force applied by the distance the object moves in the direction of the force.
Work done is calculated using the formula: Work (W) = Force (F) x Distance (d) x Cosine (θ). This formula takes into account the magnitude of the force, the distance the object moves, and the angle between the force and the direction of motion.
The unit of measurement for work done is the joule (J). One joule is equal to the work done when a force of one newton is applied to an object and it moves one meter in the direction of the force.
Work done and power are related by the equation: Power (P) = Work (W) / Time (t). This means that power is the rate at which work is done, or the amount of work done per unit of time.
The amount of work done is affected by the magnitude of the force applied, the distance the object moves, and the angle between the force and the direction of motion. Other factors such as friction, air resistance, and the mass of the object can also impact the amount of work done.
