Questions and Answers

What is the formula for work done, as per the text?

  • $W = F \cdot S$ (correct)
  • $W = \frac{F}{S}$
  • $W = F - S$
  • $W = F + S$

In the context of work done, if an object undergoes a displacement 'S' while acted on by a force F making an angle θ with S, what is the work done W by the agent?

  • $W = F \cdot S \cdot \tan(\theta)$
  • $W = F \cdot S$
  • $W = F \cdot S \cdot \sin(\theta)$
  • $W = F \cdot S \cdot \cos(\theta)$ (correct)

According to the text, how can the work done be obtained when a graph is plotted between force applied and displacement?

  • By finding the area under the F-S graph (correct)
  • By finding the slope of the F-S graph
  • By finding the intersection points of the F-S graph
  • By finding the maximum value of the F-S graph
