Work and Power. What is force? A force is a push or a pull.
POWER Power What is power and how is it calculated? If you consider the amount of time it takes to do a particular amount of work, you are now talking.
Work  When a force causes an object to MOVE in the DIRECTION of the force.  Calculated using the equation:  Force x Distance  F x d  Units  Newton.

What is WORK? A – The Meaning of Work 1 – Work – is done on an object when the object moves in the SAME direction in which the force is exerted. Example:
Understanding and Calculating Work Work - When a force acts on an object and causes it to move through a distance, energy is transferred and work is done.
In this section you will use the equation to calculate work done use the equation to calculate kinetic energy solve simple energy interchange problems.
Doing work.
Work  Work occurs when: 1.An object moves when a force is applied 2.The direction of the objects motion is the same as the direction of the force Formula:
FORCE – PUSH OR PULL The unit of measurement for force is the Newton (N)
