Work Equation
W = Fd
The work equation is a mathematical formula used to calculate the amount of work done on an object. It is defined as the product of the force applied on an object and the distance over which the force is applied.
The general formula for work is:
W = F * d * cos(theta)
where W is the work done, F is the force applied, d is the distance over which the force is applied, and theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the direction of motion.
This equation solves for the work done by a constant force over a straight distance. If the force is not constant, integration must be used to calculate the work done.
The unit of work is joules (J).
