Enter the total force (N) and the distance/displacement (m) into the calculator to determine the Work From Force.
Work From Force Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Work From Force.
Wf = F * X
- Where Wf is the Work From Force (Joules)
- F is the total force (N)
- X is the distance/displacement (m)
How to Calculate Work From Force?
The following two example problems outline how to calculate the Work From Force.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the total force (N). In this example, the total force (N) is given as 5.
- Next, determine the distance/displacement (m). For this problem, the distance/displacement (m) is given as 7.
- Finally, calculate the Work From Force using the equation above:
Wf = F * X
Inserting the values from above and solving the equation with the imputed values gives:
Wf = 5 * 7 = 35 (Joules)
Example Problem #2:
Using the same process as above, first define the variables required by the formula. In this case, these values are:
total force (N) = 8
distance/displacement (m) = 9
Entering these values yields:
Wf = 8 * 9 = 72 (Joules)
