Cards (5)

    • Work done is the useful energy transferred . It is measured in Joules.
    • Two main types of work can be done: work done against a force and work done through heating. The work done against a force is given by the equation…
    • Work done = Force * Distance moved
    • (J). (N). (Metres)
  • When a force moves an object , energy is transferred and work is done.
  • The Law of conservation of energy
    • Energy cannot be created or destroyed , it can only be transferred into different forms
  • The tens forms of energy are :
    1. Magnetic
    2. Kinetic
    3. Heat
    4. Light
    5. Gravitational potential
    6. Chemical
    7. Sound
    8. Electrical
    9. Elastic
    10. Nuclear
