A 50 N force is applied to a block, causing it to move 2 m to the right. Calculate the work done on the block.

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. An object possesses kinetic energy when it is moving. The kinetic energy (KE) of an object is given by the equation:

First, calculate the work done:

where F is the force applied and s is the displacement of the object.

KE = ½ × m × v^2

GPE = m × g × h = 5 kg × 9.8 m/s^2 × 2 m = 98 J

Energy is the ability to do work. There are two main types of energy: kinetic energy and potential energy.

A 2 kg car is moving at a velocity of 4 m/s. Calculate its kinetic energy.
