Explanation:
Summary. Work is the transfer of energy by a force acting on an object as it is displaced. 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=Fdcosθ.

Hi mate
Work is defined as the product of the magnitude of for applied and magnitude of the component of dispalcement in the direction of force.W = F * S
The scientific definition of work
- Work reveals its relationship to energy—whenever work is done, energy is transferred. For work, in the scientific sense, to be done, a force must be exerted and there must be displacement in the direction of the force.Note that is the component of the force in the direction of motion.
- Work is the force required to move an object. The bigger the distance the more work has been expended. It helps to understand this if you then compare the work with the everyday concept of power. Power is time related (unlike work) and is measured by how quickly the object is moved.
Hope it helps you...
