Work and Power Calculator

Find the work done and the power from force, distance and time.

Parameters Live Compute
Calculated Output
Work (J) 2,000
Power (W) 200
Formula: W = F·d ; P = W ÷ t
Step-by-Step Breakdown
1. Values used:
2. Force = 100 N
3. Distance = 20
4. Time = 10
5.
6. Work = Force x Distance = 100 x 20 = 2,000J
7. Force x Distance = 100 x 20 = 2,000
8. Power = (Force x Distance) / Time = 2,000 / 10 = 200W

Work is force times distance; power is how fast that work is done.

The math behind it

W = F·d (joules). P = W ÷ t (watts). 1 watt is 1 joule per second.

Worked Example

100 N over 20 m in 10 s → 2000 J, 200 W.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can there be work without movement?

No — if distance is zero, no mechanical work is done.
