Theory & Formula

Work & Energy

Work and energy are fundamental concepts in physics. Work is done when a force causes displacement, and energy is the capacity to do work.

Work

\(W = Fd\cos(\theta)\)

Work is done when a force causes displacement. The angle between force and displacement affects the amount of work done.

Kinetic Energy

\(KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2\)

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. It depends on the mass and velocity of the object.

Potential Energy

\(PE = mgh\)

Potential energy is stored energy due to position or configuration. Gravitational potential energy depends on height and mass.

Power

\(P = \frac{W}{t}\)

Power is the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred. It measures how quickly energy is used or produced.

Conservation of Energy

\(E_{total} = KE + PE = \text{constant}\)

In a closed system, total energy remains constant. Energy can be transferred between kinetic and potential forms.
