  • Objects with energy can exert force on other objects and cause displacement
  • Energy is measured in Joules (same unit as work)
3

Kinetic Energy

  • Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion
  • Moving objects can do work by applying force and causing displacement
  • Faster moving objects have more kinetic energy
4

Potential Energy

  • Potential energy is stored energy due to position or configuration
  • Gravitational potential energy depends on height above reference level
  • Objects at greater heights have more gravitational potential energy
