Work

Real World Example

Imagine trying to push a heavy shopping cart across a parking lot to your car. This is similar to the concept of work in physics, where applying a force to move an object over a distance is essential. Just as you exert effort (force) to push the cart (object) from the store to your car (distance), work in physics involves using force to move an object over a distance, and the energy expended in this process is measured in Joules (J).
