Question

What is the relationship between the kinetic energy and work done?

Open in App

Solution

The relationship between kinetic energy and work done is given by the work-energy theorem.
The work-energy theorem states that the work done on an object by a force is equal to the change in the kinetic energy.
i.e $W = K_{2} - K_{1}$ , where $K_{1}$ and $K_{2}$ are the final and initial kinetic energies.
