Work involves transferring energy by applying a force that causes an object to move in the direction of the force. For work to be done, both a force and movement are required. The amount of work done can be calculated using the formula Work = Force x Distance, where force is measured in Newtons and distance in meters, with the unit of work being the Joule. When work is done, energy is transferred from the object applying the force to the object being moved.
