Force times distance is called "Work" for the purposes of physics.
Yes and no. It's the dot product, but not the cross product.
I usually start with the definition of work: Work = force * distance so... Force = work / distance Distance = work / force So, no. You had it backwards.
distance and force work=distance/ force
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).
force * distance = work
Force and distance
Work - or energy transferred is the product of force and the distance that the object moves in the direction of the force.
torque
Force times distance is called "Work" for the purposes of physics.
The product of force x distance is called work. It is basically a transfer of energy.
Yes and no. It's the dot product, but not the cross product.
Work is basically the product of force and distance traveled, so if any of the two (force, distance) change, the work will change as well.
Work is the product of (force) x (distance).If, as you allege, the force increased but the work didn't change, thenthe distance must have decreased, by exactly the same factor as theincrease in the force, so that their product is not changed.
The product of the force and the distance is called "work". It is equivalent to a transfer of mechanical energy.

Work W. The dot product of Force and Distance through which the force acts is called Work . W=F.d
