what is the equation for work?w=fd
powerthe time rate of work
what is the equation for power?work/time
What do changes in motion depend on?force/ how long the force acts
mechanical energyenergy due to the position of something or movement of something
potential energythe energy that something possesses because of its position
kinetic energyenergy in motion, quantified by the relationship
what is the equation for kinetic energy?KE=1/2 mv 2
work-energy thereomthe work done on an object equals the change in kinetic energy of the object
what is the equation for work-energy thereom?work=(triangle)KE
conservation of energyenergy can be created or destroyed
machinea device, such as a lever or pulley, that increases or decreases a force or simply changes the direction of the force
conservation of energy for machinesthe work output of any machine cannot exceed the work input
what is the equation for the conservation of energy for machines?work input=work output
