Use the Physics Equations Sheet to answer questions 09.2 and 09.3.
<br><br>
Write down the equation which links distance (s), force (F) and work done (W).
How to approach this question
Locate the relevant equation on the Physics Equations Sheet. It involves the quantities work done (W), force (F), and distance (s). Write the equation using the correct symbols.
Full Answer
W = Fs
The equation that links work done, force, and distance moved in the direction of the force is given on the Physics Equations Sheet as:
W = Fs
where:
W is the work done in Joules (J)
F is the force applied in Newtons (N)
s is the distance moved in metres (m)
Common mistakes
✗ Writing the equation with the symbols rearranged incorrectly (e.g., F = Ws).\n✗ Using words instead of the standard symbols.
