work-energy theorem
work done by the net force acting on a body is equal to the change produced in the kinetic energy
Wtotal = Kf-Ki
work
change of energy of an object when an external force is applied that displaces the object
W = fd
energy
quantitative property found in all objects
commonly described as the ability to do work
either kinetic or potential
kinetic energy
energy of motion
KE = ½mv²
potential energy (stored energy)
energy stored in an object due to its position
PE = mgh
torque
a measure of the force that can cause an object to rotate about an axis
buoyancy
tendency of an object to float in a fluid
distance
total length of the route travelled by an object
displacement
distance from initial position to final position of an object
