What is the relationship between work done and kinetic energy?

Note: Kinetic energy is a scalar. The units are the same as for work (i.e. Joules, J). read more

Work, force and distance. You should know, and be able to use, the relationship between work done, force applied and distance moved. Background. Work and energy are measured in the same unit, the joule (J). When an object is moved by a force, energy is transferred and work is done. read more

energy can be used to do work, work can be used to transfer energy. The change in the kinetic energy of an object is equal to the net work done on the object. Describe the relationship between work and energy. read more

We derived two equations in class. The work done between two points $A$, $B$ is equal to the difference between the kinetic energy at the last point and the one at the first point. read more

Relationship between work and kinetic energy. Work is defined as the result of a force moving an object a distance and is stated by the equation W=Fd. read more
