๐ Understanding Work Done
Work done is the energy transferred when a force is applied to an object over a displacement. It is calculated using:
Work (W) = Force (F) ร Displacement (d) ร cos(ฮธ)
The unit of work is **Joule (J)**.
๐ Examples of Work Done Calculation
| Force (N) | Displacement (m) | Angle (degrees) | Work Done (J) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 | 10 | 0 | 500 |
| 30 | 5 | 30 | 129.9 |
| 100 | 2 | 45 | 141.4 |
โ FAQs
Q1: How do I calculate work done?
โ
Work done is calculated using **W = F ร d ร cos(ฮธ)**, where F is force, d is displacement, and ฮธ is the angle between force and displacement.
Q2: What are the SI units of work?
โ
Work is measured in **Joules (J)**, where 1 Joule equals 1 Newton-meter (Nยทm).
Q3: Can work be negative?
โ
Yes, work is negative when the force applied is opposite to the displacement direction, meaning energy is removed from the system.
Q4: How can I calculate force if work and displacement are known?
โ
If work done and displacement are known, force can be calculated as **F = W / (d ร cos(ฮธ))**.
Q5: What happens when force and displacement are perpendicular?
โ
If force and displacement are perpendicular, cos(90ยฐ) = 0, meaning no work is done.
