Answer :
Work is defined when a force produces motion. For doing a work energy is required. For example: a horse pulling a cart is doing a work.
Work done (W) in moving an object is equal to the product of force (F) and the displacement(s) of body in the direction of force. SI unit of work is Joule.
Work done= F×s

Give reason for the following :
Pardeep says that the acceleration in an object could be zero even when several forces are acting on it. Do you agree with him? Why?
Evergreen - ScienceWhich of the following does not possess the ability to do work not because of motion?
A. A sparrow flying in the sky
B. A sparrow moving slowly on the ground
C. A sparrow in the nest on a tree
D. A squirrel going up a tree
Lakhmir Singh & Manjit Kaur - PhysicsWhat should be the angle between the direction of force and the direction of motion of a body so that the work done is zero?
Lakhmir Singh & Manjit Kaur - PhysicsIn case of negative work, the angle between the force and displacement is:
A. 0o B. 45o
C. 90o D. 180o
Lakhmir Singh & Manjit Kaur - PhysicsWhen do we say that work is done? Write the formula for the work done by a body in moving up against gravity. Give the meaning of each symbol which occurs in it.
