What is Work?What is Work?
Remember that a force is a push or a pull. Remember that a force is a push or a pull. Work requires both force and motionWork requires both force and motion– Work is force applied through a distanceis force applied through a distance– If you push against the desk and nothing If you push against the desk and nothing
moves, then you haven't done any work moves, then you haven't done any work
WorkWork
There are two conditions that have to be There are two conditions that have to be satisfied for work to be done on an object satisfied for work to be done on an object – 1. The applied force must make the object move1. The applied force must make the object move– 2. The movement must be in the same direction 2. The movement must be in the same direction
as the applied forceas the applied force Work requires both force AND motionWork requires both force AND motion
Calculating WorkCalculating Work The amount of work done depends on The amount of work done depends on
the amount of force exerted and the the amount of force exerted and the distance over which the force is applied distance over which the force is applied
Work (N-m or Work (N-m or JouleJoule) = F (N) x d (m) ) = F (N) x d (m) where d is distance moved in the where d is distance moved in the direction of the forcedirection of the force
One newton-meter is equal to one joule One newton-meter is equal to one joule so the unit of work is a jouleso the unit of work is a joule
Weight is a Force!
Remember that weight is a force caused by Remember that weight is a force caused by your mass and gravityyour mass and gravity– FFgravitygravity = mg = mg
– To lift something you have to exert a force to To lift something you have to exert a force to overcome this force of gravity, so you are doing overcome this force of gravity, so you are doing work on that objectwork on that object
