Yes and no. It's the dot product, but not the cross product.
vector, power= work/time and work= force * distance, force is vector.
Yes.
Force times distance is called "Work" for the purposes of physics.
I usually start with the definition of work: Work = force * distance so... Force = work / distance Distance = work / force So, no. You had it backwards.
The product of force or effort to move a load multiplied by the distance it was moved is known as work. In physics, work is calculated using the formula ( W = F \times d ), where ( W ) represents work, ( F ) is the force applied, and ( d ) is the distance over which the force is applied. Work is measured in joules in the International System of Units (SI).
vector, power= work/time and work= force * distance, force is vector.
Work done is a scalar quantity. It is defined as the product of force and distance in the direction of the force, and does not have a direction associated with it.
scalar, produced by the scalar product of two vector quantities ... Force · Distance
Work is measured as a product of force applied and the distance moved. Work is calculated using the formula: Work = Force × Distance.
force * distance = work
Force and distance
No, work is not a vector quantity. It is a scalar quantity that represents the transfer of energy when a force is applied over a distance.
Work is the product of a force and a displacement. Both of those are vectors. There are two ways to multiply vectors. One of them produces another vector, the other produces a scalar. The calculation for 'work' uses the scalar product. The procedure is: (magnitude of one vector) times (magnitude of the other vector) times (cosine of the angle between them).
Torque is got by the cross product of two vectors namely force vector and perpendicular radius vector Tau (torque) = r X F But work is got by the scalar product of force vector and displacement vector Hence W = F . S
Work is the product of force and distance, or w = F x d. Now, theoretically, if you push an object 100 yards to the east, and then turn it around and push it 100 yards back to the staring point, you did NO work, because distance has a vector component. But, if you just push it in one direction only, the work done will be the product of the force applied times the distance moved.
Work is said to be done by a force if the point of application of the force gets displaced. Work is measured by the product of the force and the displacement component in the direction of the force. Hence W = F s cos @ @ is the angle between the force vector and displacement vector.
You measure it. Depending on the information provided, you can also calculate it, for example using trigonometry. ======================== Work done= Force vector . Displacement vector=Force*displacement*cos a, where a is the angle between the force and the displacement. So you have the values of work force and displacement then you can do the cosine inverse of the ratio of work done to the product of the force and displacement. That will give you the angle.
