Answer: For forces on flat rigid bodies such as a wall, it is less direct in the calculation of work done as force times distance or displacement compared to other situations. You will have to calculate the pressure exerted first which will be P = F/A, where F is the force as above in Newtons, and A is the area of the wall first. There should also be a pressure limit for the wall in question based on what it is composed of and its dimensions from structural mechanics. The exerted force must exceed the upper limit of tolerated force to break the wall. In any case even without breaking the wall, using very accurate optical technology you can estimate the displacement now a days however minute, or the change in the form of volume of displacement also due to the pressure. Here Work done can be given still as follows : W = F •d, or W = P •V, or W = (F/A)•V. Here V will be the approximate

Explanation: i hope this helps
