1. The object must experience a displacement in the direction of the force applied.
2. The force applied must be in the same direction as the displacement of the object.
3. Work is calculated as the product of the force applied and the displacement of the object in the direction of the force.
4. Work is measured in joules (J) or newton-meters (Nm).
5. Work can be positive (when the force and displacement are in the same direction), negative (when the force and displacement are in opposite directions), or zero (when there is no displacement or no force applied).
6. Work is a scalar quantity, meaning it only has magnitude and no direction.
