Question

If i apply force to an object, but the object is too heavy to have moved, will i still have done work?

Answer 1

yaa

Answer 2

@aceace

Answer 3

confusion??
because w=fs

Answer 4

force is applied and displacement is also occur

Answer 5

@aceace

Answer 6

but there is no displacementas there is too much mass then will there have been work done?

Answer 7

it depends on where your definition of "work" is focused.

Answer 8

no movement, no work done...
\[\int\limits_{a}^{a} F*dx = 0 \]
...no matter what F is

Answer 9

The phrase "i did work" still unclear. Only force do work. If you refer word ""I" to the "force you used to push the wall", then work is zero. But there's another force when you push the wall that does work. That's why you feel tired even if the wall isn't moving :)

Answer 10

work done = force * displacement
so if object is not moving then you have done no work done

Answer 11

no displacement in the direction of force, no work done. even if you died pushing the object hard. ^_^

No displacement along the direction of force means no work done.

Answer 12

w=\[\int\limits_{0}^{d}\]f.ds...hence if displacement is zero,no work is said to be done in physics...
