work
In physics, work is the energy transferred to or from an object via the application of force along a displacement. In its simplest form, it is often represented as the product of force and displacement. A force is said to do positive work if (when applied) it has a component in the direction of the displacement of the point of application. A force does negative work if it has a component opposite to the direction of the displacement at the point of application of the force.For example, when a ball is held above the ground and then dropped, the work done by the gravitational force on the ball as it falls is equal to the weight of the ball (a force) multiplied by the distance to the ground (a displacement). When the force F is constant and the angle between the force and the displacement s is θ, then the work done is given by:
W
=
F
s
cos
θ
{\displaystyle W=Fs\cos {\theta }}
Work is a scalar quantity, so it has only magnitude and no direction. Work transfers energy from one place to another, or one form to another. The SI unit of work is the joule (J), the same unit as for energy.

Hello. Can I take your advice please? Our groundworks company are refusing to guarantee their work and I don't think this is right. We are having a small front garden tiled (Victorian terrace). First laying of the tiles was patterned incorrectly. The following day they lifted the incorrect ones...
I have a slurry mix I bought for my porcelain tile job. I am a novice but see the slurry mix is workable for around 3 hours. I have about 44 60x60cm tiles to lay on mortar bed. I would guess it take me a lot longer than 3 hours though so would you mix a third at a time. My slurry mix is 17kg bag...
Hi all,
I have just had someone tile my front path but to me it looks a little odd, but no idea if this is acceptable and I'm being too fussy. They were laid 4 days ago and for some reason they are still lifting super easy, I am not sure why. If anyone can advise it would be hugely appreciated.
Hi all
I was hoping to get your opinions / thoughts on some work done in the kitchen by the builders at my parents.
The main thing I'm scratching my head about is the tiling when it meets the kitchen cabinets. The builders have left gaps un-tiled under the cabinets and cookerhood and I think...

Hello, as a novice, I need some advice. Our landscapers have been doing a fantastic job so far with our back garden. We’ve come home today to the first tiles being laid on the raised patio they created. We had discussed the patio size, and agreed the rough size of the final patio to allow for...
