Turning a handle or pushing a lever
is simply 'work' as in force x distance.

But pressing it with your finger isnt either.

So when you press this 'switch' with a finger, you're not applying a
force which moves a finite distance?

Or isn't "work = force x distance" any more? When did that change?


Oh that changed when climate chage came along and science rewrote the
laws of physics to allow perpetual motion, and called it 'renewable energy'
