If the mass is already moving, then no force is required to move it any desired distance,

and if it's not moving, then any force will start it moving. We'll say that there's no definite

relationship between force, mass, and distance.

Force equals mass times what?

Work. The force times the distance over which the force is applied is equal to the work. Work is measured in joules.


How do you find distance given mass and work?

You can't. Work is (force) times (distance), so you have to know something about the force. Just knowing the mass doesn't tell you anything about the force ... unless there's actually something else about the mass that you've overlooked.


How are mass force acceleration force and work related?

Here are two equations that might be useful.Newton's Second Law: force = mass x accelerationDefinition of work: work = force x distance


What is the formula for work done against gravity?

Work Done = Force x Distance = Power / Time = (Force x speed)/Time


A crane does 5000J of work to lift a box a vertical distance of 16.0 m Calculate the mass of the box?

Force on the box = (weight) = (mass) x (gravity)Work = (force) x (distance) = (mass x gravity) x (distance)Mass = (work) / (gravity x distance)= (5000) / (9.8 x 16) = 31.888 kg (rounded)


How is work different from force?

F = ma, W = Fd Or in words: force is mass multiplied by acceleration; work is force multiplied by distance.


What does force divided by distance equal?

Work is force times distance. A Force divided by Distance: looking at the units, Force = newtons = kg m / s^2 = mass x length / time^2 so ML/T^2 Distance = m = length so L Force/Distance = (ML/T^2)/L = ML/LT^2 = M/T^2 So the units of a force divided by distance are mass/ time^2 This would be the rate of change of mass change with respect to time.


If force is work divided by distance then distance is force divided by work?

I usually start with the definition of work: Work = force * distance so... Force = work / distance Distance = work / force So, no. You had it backwards.


Perpendicular force on 200n mass for 6m equals work?

Work is equal to the force supplied multiplied by the distance moved, so it is 1200J.


Is work done when you throw a ball?

Yes, throwing the ball requires a force, and work is done when a force moves a mass over a distance.


How much work is done if you push a 100N crate with friction of 70N across a 10m floor?

Work is equal to force x distance. If the force is specified in Newtons, and the distance in meters, then the work is in Joules.Work is equal to force x distance. If the force is specified in Newtons, and the distance in meters, then the work is in Joules.Work is equal to force x distance. If the force is specified in Newtons, and the distance in meters, then the work is in Joules.Work is equal to force x distance. If the force is specified in Newtons, and the distance in meters, then the work is in Joules.


How do you determine how much work is done?

First you have to find the force F=(mass/weight of object)*(9.8) Once you find force Work=(Force)*(Distance) Your answer will be in joules
