Application and Practice Questions. Bar Chart Illustrations. Lesson 2 has thus far focused on how to analyze motion situations using the work and energy relationship. The relationship could be summarized by the following statements: There is a relationship between work and mechanical energy change.
The law of conservation of energy states that the total energy is constant in any process. Energy may change in form or be transferred from one system to another, but the total remains the same.
8.1 Potential Energy of a System. The kinetic energy of a system must always be positive or zero. Explain whether this is true for the potential energy of a system. The force exerted by a diving board is conservative, provided the internal friction is negligible.
What is the Law of Conservation of Energy? The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. Although, it may be transformed from one form to another. If you take all forms of energy into account, the total energy of an isolated system always remains constant.
- Work-Energy Theorem and Law of Conservation of Energy Overview. The lecture begins with a review of the loop-the-loop problem. Professor Shankar then reviews basic terminology in relation to work, kinetic energy and potential energy. He then goes on to define the Work-Energy Theorem.
