As early as 40,000 BC, hunters worked in groups to track and kill animals, while younger or weaker members of the tribe gathered food. When agriculture replaced hunting and gathering, the resulting surplus of food allowed early societies to develop and some of its members to pursue crafts such as pottery, weaving, and metallurgy. Historically, rigid social hierarchies caused nobles, clergy, merchants, artisans, and peasants to pursue occupations defined largely by hereditary social class. Craft guilds, influential in the economic development of medieval Europe, limited the supply of labour in each profession and controlled production. The establishment of towns led to the creation of new occupations in commerce, law, medicine, and defense. The coming of the Industrial Revolution, spurred by technological advances such as steam power, changed working life profoundly. Factories divided the work once done by a single craftsman into a number of distinct tasks performed by unskilled or semiskilled workers (see division of labour). Manufacturing firms grew larger in the 19th century as standardized parts and machine tools came into use, and ever-more-specialized positions for managers, supervisors, accountants, engineers, technicians, and salesmen became necessary. The trend toward specialization continued into the 21st century, giving rise to a number of disciplines concerned with the management and design of work, including production management, industrial relations, personnel administration, and systems engineering. By the turn of the 21st century, automation and technology had spurred tremendous growth in service industries. In physics, the measure of energy transfer that occurs when an object is moved over a distance by an external force, some component of which is applied in the direction of displacement. For a constant force, work W is equal to the magnitude of the force F times the displacement d of the object, or W = Fd. Work is also done by compressing a gas, by rotating a shaft, and by causing invisible motions of particles within a body by an external magnetic force. No work is accomplished by simply holding a heavy stationary object, because there is no transfer of energy and no displacement. Work done on a body is equal to the increase in energy of the body. Work is expressed in units called joules (J). One joule is equivalent to the energy transferred when a force of one newton is applied over a distance of one metre.

work
The transfer of energy from one physical system to another expressed as the product of a force and the distance through which it moves a body in the direction of that force
work
cause to work; "he is working his servants hard"
work
and Net Work: Work is the energy required to move an object over a set distance Both motion and force must be present for work to occur In an IC engine, work is developed from pressures within the cylinder acting on the face of the piston (producing a force) times the distance through which the piston travels In the internal combustion engine some of the work produces power output (such as pressures producing piston movement during the power stroke) and some of the work is negative (like compressing the fresh charge on the compression stroke) The difference between the positive and negative work is the net work produced by the engine
work
To influence by acting upon; to prevail upon; to manage; to lead
work
The amount of work is proportioned to, and is measured by, the product of the force into the amount of motion along the direction of the force
work
If someone is at work they are doing their job or are busy doing a particular activity. The salvage teams are already hard at work trying to deal with the spilled oil Television cameras were invited in to film him at work
work
That which is produced as the result of labor; anything accomplished by exertion or toil; product; performance; fabric; manufacture; in a more general sense, act, deed, service, effect, result, achievement, feat
work
move in an agitated manner; "His fingers worked with tension"
work
When people work the land, they do all the tasks involved in growing crops. Farmers worked the fertile valleys
work
proceed along a path; "work one's way through the crowd"; "make one's way into the forest"
work
arrive at a certain condition through repeated motion; "The stitches of the hem worked loose after she wore the skirt many times"
work
Ore before it is dressed
work
Hence, figuratively, to be effective; to have effect or influence; to conduce
work
Manner of working; management; treatment; as, unskillful work spoiled the effect
work
If your mind or brain is working, you are thinking about something or trying to solve a problem. My mind was working frantically, running over the events of the evening
work
To produce or form by labor; to bring forth by exertion or toil; to accomplish; to originate; to effect; as, to work wood or iron into a form desired, or into a utensil; to work cotton or wool into cloth
work
operate in a certain place, area, or specialty; "She works the night clubs"; "The salesman works the Midwest"; "This artist works mostly in acrylics"
work
the occupation for which you are paid; "he is looking for employment"; "a lot of people are out of work"
work
To ferment, as a liquid
work
Performance of moral duties; righteous conduct
work
be employed; "Is your husband working again?"; "My wife never worked"; "Do you want to work after the age of 60?"; "She never did any work because she inherited a lot of money"; "She works as a waitress to put herself through college"
work
Mechanical energy equal to the product of the force applied to an object times the distance the object is moved
work
Work is something which you produce as a result of an activity or as a result of doing your job. It can help to have an impartial third party look over your work Tidiness in the workshop is really essential for producing good work
work
{i} labor; task; profession; occupation; vocation; place of work; creation; deed; action; effort
work
The application of a force through a distance ENERGY is stored work POWER is the rate at which work is done, or the rate of flow of energy The JOULE is exactly the amount of work done in exerting the basic metric unit of force, 1 NEWTON (N), over the basic metric unit of distance, 1 meter
work
Work W is the product of force F times the distance s through which the force acts As a formula, W = Fs For example, if you lift a 20-lb weight through a distance of 2 ft, the work equals 40 ft*lb In the cgs system, F is in dyne-centimeters, which is an erg A larger cgs unit, also used in SI, is the joule, equal to 107 ergs In the mks system, F is in newton-meters This unit is the same as 107 ergs Or 1 N*m equals 1 J The joule unit of work is named after James P Joule (1818-1889), an important English physicist Energy is the ability to do work Kinetic energy is due to the motion of a mass, as when you throw a ball Potential energy is stored energy, as in a coiled spring The units for both kinetic and potential energy are the same as for work
work
behave in a certain way when handled; "This dough does not work easily"; "The soft metal works well
work
Work is the place where you do your job. Many people travel to work by car She told her friends at work that she was trying to lose weight
work
a place where work is done; "he arrived at work early today"
work
A works is a place where something is manufactured or where an industrial process is carried out. Works is used to refer to one or to more than one of these places. The steel works could be seen for miles
work
Work is done when a force is applied over a certain distance If an object is pushed over a distance of 8m using a force of 3N, the work done is 24J
work
shape, form, or improve a material; "work stone into tools"; "process iron"; "work the metal"
work
The causing of motion against a resisting force
work
give a work-out to; "Some parents exercise their infants"; "My personal trainer works me hard"; "work one's muscles"
work
To cause to ferment, as liquor
work
If you work a particular area or type of place, you travel around that area or work in those places as part of your job, for example trying to sell something there. Brand has been working the clubs and the pubs since 1986, developing her comedy act
work
If an idea, system, or way of doing something works, it is successful, effective, or satisfactory. 95 per cent of these diets do not work A methodical approach works best
work
To act or operate on the stomach and bowels, as a cathartic
work
the force applied to an object multiplied by the distance In all machines, input and output work are equal Input and output work is force times distance
work
