This can be helpful when comparing your present wage to a wage being offered by a prospective employer where each wage is stated in a different periodic term (e.g., one is listed as an hourly wage and the other is listed as annually).
Definition Of Work. Work is the transfer of energy. In physics we say that work is done on an object when you transfer energy to that object. If you put energy into an object, then you do work on that object (mass).If a first object is the agent that gives energy to a second object, then the first object does work on the second object.The energy goes from the first object into the second object.f you put energy into an object, then you do work on that object (mass). If a first object is the agent that gives energy to a second object, then the first object does work on the second object. The energy goes from the first object into the second object.
Work, force and distance. You should know, and be able to use, the relationship between work done, force applied and distance moved. Work and energy are measured in the same unit, the joule (J). When an object is moved by a force, energy is transferred and work is done.
