Work

Real World Example

Imagine trying to push a heavy shopping cart across the parking lot to your car. This is similar to the concept of work in physics, where you apply a force to move an object over a certain distance. Just like you exert effort to push the cart (force) and make it move from one end of the lot to the other (distance), work in physics involves applying a force to an object to move it over a distance, measured in Joules, showing how much energy you used to complete the task.
