Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Work is said to be done when a force displaces a body upto some distance in the direction of force. Its unit is N-m also called Joule(J). Mathematically,
work done= force(N) × displacement(m)
Work done = F.s.cosθ
Where F is the force, s is the displacement of the body, θ is the angle between the direction of the force and the displacement of the body.
1 J work is defined as the work done by a force of 1 N in displacing a body through a distance of 1 meter.
