...consideration of force and the displacement of its point of application. This element is called work. The work done by a force is the product of the force into the displacement which it produces in its point of application. In this definition the force is...

...remained uniform during that unit and the same as at the proposed instant. The rate at which work is done by a force is the product of the force and the velocity of its point of application in the direction of the force. DBF. The power of an agent is proportional...

...B2, <kc., then the whole work done by the forces at A1, A.%, &c., estimated according to the fore1 Or the work done by a force is the product of the force by the projection of the displacement of its point of application on the direction of the force, or...

...in moving it from a certain defined configuration to its present configuration, it being understood the work done by a force is the product of the force by the space through which it is exerted. Suppose for instance that two equal spherical balls, each...

...does work. The pressure of the steam, in moving the piston of an engine, does work. The measure of the work done by a force is the product of the force and the distance through which it moves its point of application in the direction of the force. Suppose that...

...consideration of force as time-rate of change of momentum leads to the same expression. Work or Energy (w). — The work done by a force is the product of the force into the displacement of its point of application projected on the line of action of the force, or/i....

...and, in many cases, a much larger force consisting of a weight or load lifted, or resistance overcome. As the work done by a force is the product of the force multiplied by the distance through which it acts, we can arrange the mechanism in such a manner that...

...inversely as the cube of its distance from the first, while also directly as the latter's mass. But the work done by a force is the product of the force into the space through which it acts, — as, for instance, the lifting a weight a certain distance,...
