Energy¶
This chapter explores work, energy, and power in physical systems.
Key Concepts:¶
Work and kinetic energy
Potential energy (gravitational, elastic)
Conservation of energy
Power
Sample Question:¶
A 10 kg object is lifted 2 m. What is the increase in gravitational potential energy?
\[\Delta U = mgh = 10 \times 9.8 \times 2 = 196\ \text{J}\]
