2. What is work? When a force is applied to a body and the body moves in the direction of force applied Displacement produced by force A vector quantity- it has magnitude as well as direction http://ap-physics.david- s.org/

3. Examples Throwing a baseball jogging Writing on a piece of paper http://ap-physics.david- s.org/

4. How to find work The formula for work is: W=F x D  Work= Force x Displacement http://ap-physics.david- s.org/

5. How to find work W=F x D Force and Displacement is needed to find the amount of work done:  Find the amount of force exerted  Find the change in placement for displacement http://ap-physics.david- s.org/

6. What is work measured in? Work is measured in:  Nm (Newton-meter)  Joule  Erg http://ap-physics.david- s.org/
