Question

Work equals force the times

Answer 1

Work equals force times distance. When you move an object, you are exerting a force onto it. By exerting a force on the object, you are actually displacing it from its initial position. You cannot apply force to the object without altering its position. Keep in mind that when you exert work, you are exerting energy too. So the work must have a unit in joules in SI units. Force is in newtons or kilogram meter per second squared. And distance is in meters. So you will have newton-meter or joules.
