Work from Force & Displacement
Force from Work & Displacement
Formula
W = Fd cos(θ), where W is work in joules, F is force in newtons, d is displacement in meters, and θ is the angle between the force and displacement vectors.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is work in physics?
In physics, work is the transfer of energy that occurs when a force causes an object to move in the direction of the force. It is measured in joules (J).
When is no work done?
No work is done when the force is perpendicular to the displacement (θ = 90°), when there is no displacement, or when no force is applied.
