प्रश्न
A force F acts on a body and displaces it by a distance S in a direction at an angle θ with the direction of force.
Write the expression for the work done by the force.
उत्तर
Work done = Force × displacement
However, when a force causes the body to move in a direction different from the force's direction.
Then work done W = Force × the component of body displacement in the direction of force.
W = F × S Cos θ
∴ W = F S Cos θ

Displacement
A force of 1000 N was applied to stop a car that was moving with a constant velocity. The car stopped after moving through 10 m. How much is the work done?
A cart with mass 20 kg went 50 m in a straight line on a plain and smooth road when a force of 2 N was applied to it. How much work was done by the force?
A force 'F' moves a load from A to C as shown in the figure below. For the calculation of the work done, which of these lengths would you use as the displacement?
A body, when acted upon by a force of 20 kgf, gets displaced by 1 m. Calculate the work done by the force, when the displacement is
- in the direction of force,
- at an angle of 60° with the force, and
- normal to the force. (g = 10 N kg-1)
