4.5.2 Work Done and Energy Transfer Flashcards
1
Q
How do you calculate the work done by a force on an object?
A
W = Fs
Work done(J) = Force(N) x distance moved in the direction of the force(m)
2
Q
Work done:
A
the energy transferred when a force moves an object over a distance
3
Q
When is work done on an object?
A
when a force causes an object to move through a distance
4
Q
What is it when a force causes a displacement of an object?
A
a force does work on an object
