What is defined as force times distance?
Work is defined as the dot product of force times distance, or W = F * d = Fd cos (theta) where theta is the angle in between the force and distance vectors (if you are doing two dimensions). In three dimensions, use the standard definition for the dot product (using the component form of the vectors).
What is force times distance equals?
Force times distance equals work.
Is work a product of force and distance?
Yes.
Is work is the vector product of force and distance?
Yes and no. It's the dot product, but not the cross product.
What is force times distance?
Torque is calculated by multiplying a force by the distance from the fulcrum at which it acts.
Since a moment is a force times a distance is it true to call a moment a force?
No, a moment is a force x a distance, it is the product of a force and a distance. You get the same moment with a force of say 2 Newtons at 0.5 meter as a force of 1 Newton at 1 meter, so it is obviously not a force alone, but the product of a force and a distance, and its units are Newton.meters in the SI system
What are the two components of work?
Work is the product of (force) times (distance). There are no other components.
What is the product of the input force through a distance?
force * distance = work
What is defined as force times distance?

What does the scientific word work mean?
in physics, it means the product of a force times a distance, which is an energy.
What are the two major components of work?
Work is the product of (force) times (distance). There are no other components.
The product of force and distance is?
* *
Why torque is zero when force is applied to point that passes through pivot point?
Torque is defined as the product of the distance from the pivot point, times a force, times an angle function. If any of the three factors is zero, the product is zero. In this case, the distance from the pivot point.
What is force times distance equals?
Force times distance equals work.
What Is The Product Of Work?
Force and distance
Work is defined as?
Work "W" is defined as the product of force "F" times distance "D": W = FD
What does work equals force times?
Force times Distance equals Work
