Learning Outcome :
Define work ( W ) as the product ofan applied force ( F ) anddisplacement ( s ) of an object in thedirection of the applied force i.e. W =Fs
State that when work is done energy
is transferred from one object toanother.

What is Work?
Work done by a constant force isgiven by the product of the force andthe distance moved in the direction ofthe force.
Unit: Nm or Joule (J)
Work is a scalar quantity.

Example 1 :
A student is pulling an object and the force he applied is 7 N at
an angle of 60 to the horizontal. If the object moves a
horizontal distance of 0.3m, what is the work done by the force. Hint: the force 7 N can be resolved into a horizontal component
7 cos 60 and a vertical component 7 sin 60

When the displacement is in thedirection of force
Formula of work 2
When the direction of force and motion are
same 0, therefore cos 0 = 1
Work done,
W = F x s x cos 0
= F x s

Example 2 :
Diagram above shows a 10N force is pulling a metal.
The friction between the block and the floor is 5N. If the
distance travelled by the metal block is 2m, find
the work done by the pulling force
the work done by the frictional force

Asnwer:
(a) The force is in the same direction of the motion.
Work done by the pulling force,
W = F s = (10)(2) = 20J (b) The force is not in the same direction of motion,
work done by the frictional force
W = F x s cos180= (5)(2)(-1) = -10J

Transfer of Energy When Workis Done
Machine that do work must be supplied
with energy.
As the machine does work, energy istransferred from one object to another.
Energy transfers are never 100% efficient
since some energy is wasted when it is
converted to other form which are wanted.
