The work W that a force F does on an object is the product of the magnitude F of the force, times the magnitude d of the displacement, times the cosine of the angle θ between them. In symbols, W=Fd cos θ. The SI unit for work and energy is the joule (J), where 1 J=1 Nm=1 kg m2/s2. The work done by a force is zero if the
