How is work defined scientifically? The force exerted on an object that causes it to move in the same direction as the force. When force is exerted, is work done? Not necessarily. If the object moves in the same direction as the force being applied, work is done. However, if the object does not move, work is not done. What two factors determine the amount of work done on an object? Force and distance. What is the work formula? W = F × D What is the SI measurement...
