Study Notes
Definition of Energy
- Energy is the capacity to do work.
- If energy cannot perform work, it is transformed into another form.
Types of Energy
Kinetic Energy
- Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion.
Potential Energy
- Potential energy is stored energy associated with an object's position, shape, or condition.
Gravitational Potential Energy
- Gravitational potential energy is the stored energy in an object based on its position relative to gravitational fields.
Elastic Potential Energy
- Elastic potential energy is the energy stored in a deformed elastic object, which can be released when the object returns to its original form.
