  • The SI unit of energy is the joule (J).
  • Electrical power can be calculated using the formula P = V x I, where P is power in watts, V is voltage in volts, and I is current in amperes.
  • Power is measured in watts (W) or kilowatts (kW).
  • Work-energy theorem states that the net work done on an object equals its change in kinetic energy.
  • Kinetic energy is defined as KE = 1/2 mv^2.
  • Gravitational potential energy is the energy associated with the height of an object above ground level.
  • Potential energy is stored energy that comes from position or configuration.
  • Potential energy is defined as PE = mgH.
  • Elastic potential energy is stored when objects are stretched or compressed.
  • Conservation of mechanical energy states that the sum of potential and kinetic energies remains constant during motion.
  • Chemical potential energy is released during chemical reactions.
  • Chemical potential energy is the energy released during chemical reactions.
  • The work-energy theorem relates to the change in kinetic energy of an object due to external forces acting on it.
  • Power is the rate at which work is being done.
  • Work done by a force is equal to the product of the magnitude of the force, displacement, and cosine of the angle between them.
  • Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object has due to its height above ground level.
  • Work is defined as force times distance, with units of joules (J).
  • Energy can be transferred from one form to another without changing its total amount.
  • Energy can be transferred from one form to another without changing the total amount of energy present.
  • The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed into different forms.
