...displacement. Dynamical Stability. — The amount of work done by a force acting through a given distance is measured by the product of the force and the distance through which it acts. Thus, a horse exerting a pull of 30,000 Ibs. for a mile does — 30,000 X 1760 X 3 = 158,400,000... | |

...in another way, work is the overcoming of a resistance through a distance. The amount of work done is measured by the product of the force and the distance...which the body moves in the direction of the force — W = F s The force may be applied directly to the body as in the case of a locomotive pulling a... | |

...work is performed. 7. Work Work is done when a force moves a body in the direction of the force. It is measured by the product of the force and the distance through which it acts. If a pound of force acts upon a body through a distance of one foot, one foot-pound of work... | |
