If force is applied to the car, but the car doesn’t move:
No work has been done
This can be seen in the formula W=FD where:
Zero distance(d) results in work(w) being zero as well
No matter how much force is applied:
No movement results in zero work being accomplished
Note that work and kinetic energy are both measured in:
Joules
This is not a coincidence, as any work that is done to accelerate an object at rest to velocity v will be converted:
Into kinetic energy of that object
Work Energy Theorem:
The net work done on an object is equal to the change in its kinetic energy
