... Newton’s second law, and ”energy” (which we have yet to define and discuss). The term work was first used in 1826 by the French mathematician/engineer Gaspard-Gustave Coriolis (note that this was , roughly, 150 years after Newton). Work. Suppose a force F acting on a particle gives it a displacement ...
