Work, Energy, and Power

When a satellite revolves around the Earth’s orbit, it possesses both kinetic energy and potential energy. And the sum of both these energies constitutes the total mechanical energy of the object, i.e., the satellite revolving in space. Hence, the total mechanical energy of the satellite can be calculated as: = potential energy of a satellite […]

Work is collected and stored as potential energy in the body when an external force is used to conduct work, such as moving a body from one point to another against a force like spring force or gravitational force. The body moves when an external force is removed, gaining kinetic energy while losing potential energy

The term potential energy was introduced by William Rankine in the 19th century and is an essential concept in chemistry and physics. Potential energy and equilibrium are concepts that are related to each other. When conservative forces act on the system, it helps connect and define equilibrium in terms of potential energy. Any system’s potential

Every object stores energy, and there is a shift in energy with the change in its position or movement. The energy stored in an object regarding its position, stresses, movement or electric charge is potential energy. William Rankine first introduced the term in the 19th century. The potential energy meaning is even associated with forces

To understand Nuclear Binding Energy, we first need to understand what binding energy is. Whenever in a system of particles, the particles are to be separated from one another, the energy required for separation is known as Binding energy. Binding Energy is usually distinguished at the following levels: 1.   At the Atomic Level- Atomic

The amount of ‘real power’ in an electrical system is measured in kW. This indicates how much energy is turned into productive, usable output. KVA, on the other hand, is a unit of power that measures ‘apparent’ power. If kW is the maximum amount of electricity you can work with, kVA is the total amount

The kinetic energy of a satellite is defined as the energy used up while changing its position. Any moving object which changes its position from one place to another has kinetic energy in them. We can understand the functioning of the kinetic energy for any object having mass and velocity with the help of the

Kinetic energy is the type of energy that an item or particle has as a result of its movement. When work is done on an object by exerting a net force, the object accelerates and gains kinetic energy as a result. Kinetic energy is a property of a moving item or particle that is determined

Kinetic and Potential Energies Kinetic and potential energies are popular topics in physics. So here we will talk about Kinetic and potential energy along with their examples, differences between them, and their various types.  Definition and difference between potential and kinetic energy Kinetic Energy The energy of an object or system concerning the movement of

Fluid power is used in the operation of certain machines and tools. A great amount of electricity is delivered through little tubes and hoses in these machines. Fluid is conveyed all across the machine to motors and hydraulic cylinders, in which it is pressurised before being sent to end effectors via control valves and tubes.
