Most hiccups will stop on their own. Home remedies are generally sufficient to resolve hiccupping. For persistent hiccups (lasting more than three hours) treatment varies, and you may need to contact your doctor. A physician may prescribe medications for severe, chronic hiccups.
In physics, a force is said to do work if, when acting, there is a displacement of the point of application in the direction of the force. For example, when a ball is held above the ground and then dropped, the work done on the ball as it falls is equal to the weight of the ball (a force) multiplied by the distance to the ground (a displacement). Work transfers energy from one place to another or one form to another.
For other uses of Work in physics, see Work (physics) and Work (electrical) . In thermodynamics, work performed by a system is the energy transferred by the system to another that is accounted for by changes in the external generalized mechanical constraints on the system.hese macroscopic variables always occur in conjugate pairs, for example pressure and volume, magnetic flux density and magnetization, mole fraction and chemical potential. In the SI system of measurement, work is measured in joules (symbol: J).
