What is Work in physics?

• Work is defined as the product of force and the distance over which that force is applied.

• Work is the energy transferred by a force acting through a distance.

• Work is the rate at which energy is transferred.

• Work is the total energy of a system.

What is the relationship between Work, Force, and Distance?

• Work is inversely proportional to the force applied and the distance moved.

• Work is directly proportional to both the force applied and the distance moved in the direction of the force.

• Work is independent of the force applied and the distance moved.

• Work is only dependent on the distance moved, regardless of the force applied.

If 90 joules of work is done in 30 seconds, what is the power generated?

• 2 watts

• 3 watts

• 4 watts

• 5 watts

What units are used to measure Power?

• Joules (J)

• Watts (W)

• Volts (V)

• Amperes (A)
