To understand energy and conservation of energy, we must first define some terms: work, kinetic energy (KE), and potential energy (PE). We’ll get to PE in the next Chapter. Let’s look at work and KE. Definition of work done by a force: consider an object moving while a constant force F is applied to the object.
Energy resources are key limiting factors to economic growth. The world use of energy resources, especially oil, continues to grow, with ominous consequences economically, socially, politically, and environmentally. We will briefly examine the world’s energy use patterns at the end of this chapter.
Work is done on a gas to change its volume when it is at constant pressure, (this is usually done through the transfer of thermal energy) the value of work done can be calculated using the formula: W ork done = pΔV. Where p is the pressure and Δ V is the change in volume. Efficiency is a measure of how efficiently a system transfers energy.

PF1.5: WORK, ENERGY AND POWER. Energy exists in many different forms, eg, kinetic energy Ek, potential energy Ug, electrical energy, and elastic (or spring) energy Es. A fundamental principle of nature is that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed or transferred.
Use the formula to calculate work done by force at an angle to the direction of motion. work done = 7cos60° × 10. = 35J. Gravitational Potential Energy. The gravitational potential energy of an object with mass at a height h above ground can be calculated by: = h.
