IS WORK A SCALAR OR A VECTOR QUANTITY

answered-by-expert Expert Answer
Work done on an object, is the product of the average force on it and the distance travelled in the direction of the force.
According to work energy theorem, work done is equal to change in kinetic energy.
i.e. Syntax error from line 1 column 49 to line 1 column 72. Unexpected '<mstyle '.
Since energy is always a scalar. Therfore work is a scalar quantity.
