I am trying to determine Joules from a calculation of 4172 N of force and 13.33mm displacement. I have determined this to be 55.6J, i.e 4172 * 0.0133m.
Is this correct?
Thankyou.

Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page
Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

It would be correct if the force is uniform over the entire displacement.
If it is not, you need to integrate the force as a function of displacement, and it would be the integral of f(x)dx. If you have any data on variation of force, you could plot it vs displacement and estimate area under the curve.
