...of action, the force is said to do work on the body. We measure the quantity of work done by finding the product of the force and the distance through which its point of application moves as described above. Thus a man pushing a wheelbarrow along a garden path is doing work on the wheelbarrow.... | |

...the force exerted by a horse, in drawing a cart, does work. The amount of work is measured by FIG 6S the product of the force and the distance through which its point of application moves in the direction of the force. Suppose that a force F (Fig. 68) acting at a point A of a body, moves... | |
