Work, Energy And Power Flashcards
Energy should be transferred to an object in order to move it.
Work
Transferring energy can be in the form of force.
Work
This amount of energy transferred by the force to move an object is called
work or work done.
Thus, the relation between Work and Energy is.
direct
Is an abstract idea related to energy.
Work
When —— is done it is accompanied by a change in energy.
work
When work is done by an object it ——— energy
loses
when work is done on an object it ____ energy.
gains
is done on an object when the force applied to it covers a distance in the direction of the applied force.
Work
A force exerted on an object that causes the object to move some distance.
Work
Force without moving a distance yields
_____!
NO WORK
In physics, work represents a ______ in a system, caused by a force
measurable change
In physics, ——- represents a measurable change in a system, caused by a force
work
is done if the object you push moves a distance in the direction towards which you are pushing it
WORK
is done if the force you exert does not make the object move.
NO WORK
is done if the force you exert does not make the object move in the same direction as the force you exerted.
NO WORK
An object _____ energy when raised from the ground and _____ energy when made to fall.
gains
loses
