Question

Define the following terms:
a) Work b) Energy
c) 1 Joule
d) Kinetic energy
e) Potential energy

Answer 1

Explanation:

ONE JOULE OF WORK

1j is the amount of work done on an object when a force of 1 N displace it by 1 m along the line of action of the force.

work or the rate of transfer of energy

DEFINE POTENTIAL ENERGY

if any energy stored in object

DEFINE KINTETIC ENERGY

the kinetic energy of a body moving with a certain velocity is equal to the work done on its to make it acquire that velocity

Answer 2

Answer:

1) work -In physics, work is defined as a force causing the movement—or displacement—of an object. In the case of a constant force, work is the scalar product of the force acting on an object and the displacement caused by that force.

2) Energy -Energy, in physics, the capacity for doing work. It may exist in potential, kinetic, thermal, electrical, chemical, nuclear, or other various forms. There are, moreover, heat and work—i.e., energy in the process of transfer from one body to another.

3) 1 joule- The SI derived unit used to measure energy or work. One joule is equal to the energy used to accelerate a body with a mass of one kilogram using one newton of force over a distance of one meter. One joule is also equivalent to one watt-second.

4) Kinetic energy, form of energy that an object or a particle has by reason of its motion. ... Kinetic energy is a property of a moving object or particle and depends not only on its motion but also on its mass.

5) Potential energy, stored energy that depends upon the relative position of various parts of a system. A spring has more potential energy when it is compressed or stretched. A steel ball has more potential energy raised above the ground than it has after falling to Earth.
