What is work?

Work is the transfer of energy that occurs when a force is applied to an object and the object moves in the direction of the force.

What is energy?

Energy is the ability to do work or cause change.

What is power?

Power is the rate at which work is done or the amount of work done in a given amount of time.

What is the formula for work?

Work = Force x Distance

What is the SI unit of work?

Joule (J)

What is the formula for gravitational potential energy?

Potential energy = Mass x Gravity x Height

What is the SI unit of energy?

Joule (J)

What is the formula for power?

Power = Work/Time

What is the SI unit of power?

Watt (W)

What is the relationship between work and energy?

Work is the transfer of energy.

What is the relationship between power and energy?

Power is the rate at which energy is transferred or the amount of energy transferred per unit time.

What happens to the amount of work done if the distance is doubled?

The amount of work done doubles.

Which form of energy is associated with an object in motion?

Kinetic energy

What is the relationship between work and power?

Power is the rate at which work is done.
