Work/Energy Work-Energy Theorem Conservation of Kinetic Energy If no work is done on an object, its kinetic energy does not change. THIS IS ONLY TRUE WHEN THERE IS NO WORK BEING DONE! Total work equals zero only if… 2 1. There is no net force on the object or. . . 2. The net force and infinitesimal displacement are perpendicular to each other.
