Q1: A force of 7 N acts on an object. The displacement is, say 8 m, in the direction of the force. Let us take it that the force acts on the object through the displacement. What is the work done in this case?

Q1. When do we say that work is done?
Q1. When do we say that work is done?
Work is said to be done when a force causes displacement of an object in the direction of applied force.
Q2. Write an expression for the work done when a force is acting on an object in the direction of its displacement.
Work done = Force x Displacement
Q3. Define 1J of work.
When a force of IN causes a displacement of 1m, in its own direction the work done is said to be one joule.
Q4. A pair of bullocks exerts a force of 140 N on a plough. The field being ploughed is 15 m long. How much work is done in ploughing the length of the field?
Work done = Force x Displacement = 140 x 15 = 2,100 J
