Study Notes
Key Physics Concepts
- Work: Force multiplied by the distance and cosine of the angle between force and displacement.
- Formula: Work = Force × Distance × cosθ
- Units: Joules (J)
- Power: Rate of doing work.
- Formula: Power = Work / Time
- Units: Watts (W)
- Kinetic Energy (KE): Energy of motion.
- Formula: KE = 1/2 * m * v² (where m = mass and v = velocity)
- Potential Energy (PE): Energy stored due to position.
- Formula: PE = m * g * h (where m = mass, g = acceleration due to gravity, and h = height)
Energy Transformations
- Conservation of Energy: Energy can neither be created nor destroyed; it can only be transformed from one form to another.
- Potential to Kinetic Energy: An example, a falling object changes its potential energy to kinetic energy as it falls.
- Mechanical Energy: The total energy of an object is the sum of its kinetic and potential energy
- Other forms of energy: Heat, light, chemical etc
