Net Force to Work Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Work from Net Force is:

\[ W = NF \cdot D \]

Where:

\( W \) is the work (N-m).
\( NF \) is the net force (N).
\( D \) is the distance (m).

What is Work?

Work is the measure of energy transfer that occurs when an object is moved over a distance by an external force. It is calculated as the product of the net force applied to the object and the distance over which the force is applied.

Example

Let's say you apply a net force (NF) of 10 N over a distance (D) of 5 meters. Using the formula:

\[ W = 10 \cdot 5 = 50 \, \text{N-m} \]

So, the work (W) would be 50 N-m.
