The physics of Work and Energy - A comprehensive guide exploring fundamental concepts of energy, work, and their relationships in physics.
• Energy is defined as the capacity to perform work, measured in joules (J) in the International System
• Work is a form of energy calculated as the scalar product of force and displacement
• Key concepts include kinetic energy, potential energy, conservative and non-conservative forces
• The guide covers practical applications including inclined planes, elastic forces, and gravitational work
• Mathematical formulas and graphical representations are provided for better understanding
