## Types --- - [[Kinetic Energy]] - [[Potential Energy]] ## Units --- - [[Joule]] - [[Calorie]] - [[Watt Hour]] ### Formula --- - $W = Fd$ - $W$ = [[Work]] done - $F$ = force applied - $d$ = distance travelled ## General --- - scalar quantity for the ability to do [[Work]] - alternative definition: anything that can be turned into [[Heat]] ![[CleanShot 2024-11-13 at [email protected]|400]] - note in above, TNT unintuitively has much less energy than cookies, but has much higher [[Power]], which is why it's more useful https://www.eia.gov/energyexplained/what-is-energy/forms-of-energy.php
