Review the units of work, energy, force, and distance. Use the equations for mechanical energy and work to show what is work and what is not. Make it clear why holding something off the ground or carrying something over a level surface is not work in the scientific sense.

Work, Energy and Power are fundamental concepts of Physics. Work is said to be done when a force (push or pull) applied to an object causes a displacement of the object. We define the capacity to do the work as energy. Power is the work done per unit of time.
Concepts of work, kinetic energy and potential energy are discussed; these concepts are combined with the work-energy theorem to provide a convenient means of analyzing an object or system of objects moving between an initial and final state.
Explain work as a transfer of energy and net work as the work done by the net force. Explain and apply the work-energy theorem.
The principle of work and kinetic energy (also known as the work-energy theorem) states that the work done by the sum of all forces acting on a particle equals the change in the kinetic energy of the particle.
Learn more about work and energy in this PhET simulation called “the ramp.” Try changing the force pushing the box and the frictional force along the incline. The work and energy plots can be examined to note the total work done and change in kinetic energy of the box.
4 cze 2024 · Work & Power. The work done by a force is equivalent to a transfer of energy. The units of work done are newton metres. 1 N m = 1 J. The work done by a resultant force on a system is equal to the change in energy in that system. Mechanical work is defined as. The amount of energy transferred when an external force causes an object to move over ...
