Physics Notes 22
Work is defined as the force applied to an object times the distance it moves in the direction of the
force.
Energy can neither be created nor destroyed; it can only be transformed from one form to another.
A transformer is a device used to increase or decrease the voltage of an alternating current supply.
The potential energy of an object at height h is given by mgh, where m is mass, g is acceleration
The first law of thermodynamics states that the change in internal energy of a system is equal to the
Momentum is the product of mass and velocity and is conserved in an isolated system.
Newton's first law states that an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an external
force.
