Use this calculator to determine the force applied to an object in newton, pound-force, kilogram-force or kilonewton units, to use a specified amount of energy or do work to move an object over a defined distance.
Formula
The formula used by this calculator to determine the force exerted from the work done and distance moved is :
F = W / d
Symbols
- F = Force applied
- W = Work done or energy transferred
- d = Distance moved
Work (W)
This is the total energy transferred or work done in moving the object.
Distance (d)
This is the distance the object has moved.
Force (F)
This is the force applied to move the object.
