Flashcards on Work and Energy

Click on the flashcard to see the answer


What is work?

Work is the transfer of energy that occurs when an object is moved against a force.

What is energy?

Energy is the ability to do work or cause change.

What is the formula for calculating work?

Work = force × distance

What is the SI unit of work and energy?

The SI unit of work and energy is the joule (J).

What are the two types of mechanical energy?

The two types of mechanical energy are kinetic energy and potential energy.

What is the formula for calculating kinetic energy?

Kinetic energy = 1/2 × mass × velocity^2

What is the formula for calculating potential energy?

Potential energy = mass × gravity × height

What is the law of conservation of energy?

The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another.

What is mechanical advantage?

Mechanical advantage is the ratio of output force to input force in a machine.

What is power?

Power is the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred.

What is the formula for calculating power?

Power = work / time

What is the SI unit of power?

The SI unit of power is the watt (W).

What is the difference between work and power?

Work is the transfer of energy, while power is the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred.

What are some examples of renewable energy sources?

Examples of renewable energy sources include solar energy, wind energy, and hydroelectric energy.

What are some examples of non-renewable energy sources?

Examples of non-renewable energy sources include fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas.
