What to Focus On
- Work is done only when an object moves due to a force.
- No movement means no work.
- Examples: lifting a book, kicking a ball, pulling a cart.
- Energy is the power to do work.
- We get energy from food, Sun, fuels, etc.
- More energy is needed for more difficult tasks.
- Heat Energy: comes from the Sun or burning fuels.
- Light Energy: helps us see; comes from the Sun, bulbs, candles.
- Mechanical Energy: of two types — kinetic (moving objects) and potential (stored energy).
Common Mistakes to Avoid
If a force is applied, work is always done.
Energy and force are the same thing.
Only living things have energy.
