Work (Automotive)

The result of force causing movement; measured in foot-pounds, watts, or joules.


Work (Classic Yoga)

It is necessary to assimilate permanently the dignity and the work of the true work. (COM, 17)
Understand that work properly apportioned cannot in itself be fatiguing. One should understand how to effect a proper change of the group of working nerves, and then no fatigue can find access. (LMG II, pp 215-216)

Work (Climatology)

An energy form arising from the displacement of an object by a force; the conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy.


Work (Copyright)

In copyright law, a universal phrase used for any product of expression that might be protected under copyright, including: a book, a poem, a composition, a movie, a video, an audio recording, a letter, a map, an architectural drawing, a compilation, a computer file, a computer program, an email message, a photograph, a painting, a statue, and many others, fixed in forms now known or yet to be developed.

Work (Explosives)

Work, in physics, transfer of Energy by a force acting against a resistance or a body and resulting in displacement. Work W has a magnitude equal to the scalar product ( Vector) of the force F and the distance d of the resulting movement; thus W = Fd cos ;gu, where;gu is the angle between the directions of the force and the movement. The foot-pound (English Units of Measurement), the erg (cgs system), and the joule (mks system) are the units of work or energy expended, respectively, by a 1-lb force acting through a distance of 1 ft, by a 1-dyne force through 1 cm, and by a 1-newton force through 1 m. One foot-pound equals 1.356 joules; 1 erg equals 10-7 joules.


Work (Fitness)

The product of force and distance.

Work (Ham Radio)

To communicate with another radio station, a valid two way contact


Work (Physical Education)

The force applied to an object multiplied by the displacement through which the object is moved by the force.


Work (Sanitation)

All construction-incorporating labor, material and equipment required by the contract documents.


Work (Satellite Meteorology)

The distance traveled by an object multiplied by the force applied to it in that direction.
