New cards

equation for work done

work done = force x distance moved

2
New cards

work done =

energy transferred

3
New cards

equation for gravitational potential energy

gravitational potential energy =

mass x gravitational field strength x height

4
New cards

equation for kinetic energy

kinetic energy = ½ x mass x speed2

5
New cards

equation for power

power = work done/time taken

6
New cards

definition of power

the rate of energy transfer/the rate of doing work

7
New cards

definition of work done

  • work done on an object is the energy you put in (lift, stretch or speed up an object)

  • the energy gained can be in the form of:

    • GPE

    • kinetic energy

    • work

    • elastic potential energy

    • etc.
