LOL I messed up and got it wrong and you call it write! For one I said Work is Force, its not, its Force times Distance. And its not write it's right! When I do get it RIGHT you call it crap.

Oh my bad! You are correct. I thought you had finally gotten it correct by having force and distance in one sentence. But indeed you said Work is Force, which of course, it is not. However, I see in the above, that you have FINALLY stated, in one sentence, that work is Force times Distance. Good for you! If only you can remember than in the future. Please never claim that work is the product of a mass and a distance. That is not true. I can move a very large mass through a reasonable distance, with nearly zero work, if I'm clever, and conversely, I can expend a large amount of energy (work) to move a small mass a reasonable distance as well. You try and figure out why that is!

And thanks for correcting my hasty English. I tend to make those sorts of errors.
