Energy and Work Calculator

Our Energy and Work Calculator is designed to help users understand key concepts in physics by calculating the work done and kinetic energy based on basic formulas. Whether you’re a student, teacher, or just curious about how these concepts work, this tool can simplify the process of solving related problems.

How the Calculator Works

The Energy and Work Calculator uses fundamental physics formulas to compute two main quantities: Work Done and Kinetic Energy. Here’s how it works:

1. Work Done (W): This is the amount of energy transferred when a force is applied over a distance. The formula for work is:
   • Work Done = Force applied multiplied by Distance moved.
   • Force applied is measured in Newtons (N).
   • Distance moved is measured in meters (m).
   So, if a force is applied to an object and moves it over a certain distance, the amount of work done is directly proportional to the force and the distance. The greater the force or distance, the more work is done.
2. Kinetic Energy (KE): This is the energy an object has due to its motion. The formula for kinetic energy is:
   • Kinetic Energy = Half of the object’s Mass multiplied by the Square of the object’s Velocity.
   • Mass is measured in kilograms (kg).
   • Velocity is the speed of the object, measured in meters per second (m/s).
   In our calculator, we assume an example velocity of 10 meters per second for simplicity. The kinetic energy is calculated by multiplying half of the object’s mass by the square of its velocity.

How to Use the Energy and Work Calculator

To use the calculator, follow these steps:

1. Enter Force applied in Newtons (N).
2. Enter Distance moved in meters (m).
3. Enter Mass of the object in kilograms (kg).

Once all the values are entered, click on the “Calculate Work and Energy” button, and the tool will instantly compute:

• Work Done: The amount of work based on the applied force and distance.
• Kinetic Energy: The energy due to the motion of the object, assuming a velocity of 10 meters per second.
