IGCSE Coordinated Science Work Work Relate (without calculation) work done to the magnitude of a force and the distance moved. If a constant force of lets say, magnitude F, acts on a point that moves distance s,in the same direction of the force, then the Work is simply the force multiplied by the distance s. Describe energy changes in terms of work done. Work is the amount of energy transferred into or out of a system, not counting energy transferred by heat conduction. Needs expanding. Recall and use W = F × d. This is just the formula Work = Force x Distance, measured in Joules. In GCSE level, there isn’t anything crazy about this, its just finding the appropriate distance and force, and then tagging the “Joules” unit at the end.
