How is work related to energy?

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The relation between work and energy.

Answer to Problem 1CQ

The amount of work done is equal to the change in energy.

Explanation of Solution

Energy is defined as the ability to do work and after work, there will be a change in the energy of the objects. Work requires the application of force over a distance to achieve that change in energy.

So, work is equal to the change in energy.

    W=ΔE

Here W is work and ΔE is the change in energy.

Therefore, work is equal to the change in energy.
