F = a + bx

We're told that 'F' is force and 'x' is distance. So both of the terms 'a' and 'bx'

are also force.

Dimensionally:

[ a ] = [ force ] = [ mass - length3 - time-2 ]

[ b ] = [ force/length ] = [ mass - length2 - time-2 ]

Does force over distances stay the same if distance is the same as force?

This question is, unfortunately, not well stated. Force and distance are different in dimensions so force and distance cannot ever be the same. You could have numerically similar dimensions - such as 2 Newtons and 2 feet, but they are not the same thing. The question needs to be re-stated and clarified so that we can give a valid answer.

Is force different from energy?

Yes - quite different. Energy has dimensions of force x distance - if you apply a force over a certain distance, you transfer a certain amount of energy.


How do you find the effort force if you already have the load force and the distance moved by load force?

Work is defined as a force PLUS a distance?

< TIMES >You can't add or subtract quantities with different dimensions, like force and distance, speed and volume, etc.

What is Work equals Force times Distance?

W= FxD is a balanced equation because Work is Force times distance.


Does strength plus distance equals work?

No, work is equal to force times distance. Power is equal to force times distance over time.
