WORK
 WORK
In physics, measure of energy
transfer that occurs when an object is
moved over a distance by an external
force at least part of which is applied
in the direction of the displacement
WORK
Mathematically,
W= work
F= force
d= displacement
Formula
W=FXd
SI Unit
J (joule) = N (newton)*
m(meter)
Example Problem
If a force of 30 N is applied on an object that made
it cover a distance of 5.0m. Calculate the work
done.

Given: Formula:
Force (F) = 30 N W=F*d
Distance (d) = 5.0 m W = 30 N * 5.0 m
W = 150 N-m or 150 J
 
Example Problem
How many Joules of work are done when 10 N
force moves a table 10 m ?
How to solve work with given
angle ??
 FORCE APPLIED AT A CERTAIN ANGLE
When force are applied at a certain angle , the expression of work
will involve the x-component of the applied force and the
displacement.

W = F cosθ X d
Example Problem
If the person pushes the luggage with a constant force
of 100N at an angle of 35 degree to the horizontal,
how much work does he do in pushing it to a distance
of 100 m?
Given: Formula:
Force (F) = 100 N W = F cos Ɵ * d
Distance (d) = 100 m W = (100 N cos 35) 100m
Angle (Ɵ) = 35 degree
W = 8192 N.m or J

 
Example Problem
How much work is done on a sled pulled 4.00 m to
the right by the force of 75.0 N at an angle of 35.0
degree above the horizon?

 
 
 MEMORY TEXT
For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus
to do good works, which God prepared in advance
for us to do
