  • Farhan toy truck haas a mass of 6 kg. If he pushes it with a force of 10 N, a distance of 4 m, how much work has he done on the truck?
    W = fs = (10)(4) = 40 J
  • Energy in motion.
    kinetic energy
  • What is the equivalent unit of one joule of work?
    1 Nm
  • TRUE or FALSE. Energy can be destroyed.
    FALSE
  • True or false: the law of conservation of energy states that potential energy can be completely converted to kinetic energy.
    True
  • What is the formula for power?
    P = W/t
  • What is the unit of work?
    Joule

  • It is the energy due to its position and condition. Also known as the stored energy.
    potential energy
  • TRUE or FALSE. If an object reaches a higher height, it will gain more potential energy.
    TRUE
  • TRUE or FALSE. Force has no effect on work.
    FALSE
