Which Path Requires the Most Energy? Suppose that a car traveled up three different roadways (each with varying incline angle or slope) from the base of a mountain to the summit of the mountain. Which path would require the most gasoline (or energy)?
Work-Energy Principle In order to transfer energy to an object, you have to exert a ______ on that object Force
Work-Energy Principle work done The amount of energy transferred by a force is called the w_____ WORK DONE= ENERGY TRANSFERRED d_____ by that force.
Work-Energy Principle Whenever w_____ is done on an object, it’s energy changes. . . the energy is t____ to that object Work (F • d) transferred
