Energy
Energy can never be created
Energy can never be destroyed
Energy can only change its form (Work is done)
Energy has the ability to make something happen, i.e. to do Work
The unit for energy is the Joule (J)
J = Kgm2s-2  in fundamental units

Work
Work is a transformation (change) of energy from one form to another form. Work only occurs when something is done.

  • Power is the rate at which energy is transformed
  • Power is the rate at which work is done
  • Unit of power Watt (W = J/s)

Momentum

Conservation of Momentum
In the absence of external forces the total momentum of a system is always conserved

Impulse
The change in Momentum for a single object
ΔP = Pf - Pi
&
ΔP = FΔt
&
ΔP = mΔv
  • The unis are eithor Ns or kgms-1 , this is the same unit and the one that is used depends on the context
  • Impulse on one object is always equal and opposite to the impulse on the other onject - Newton's Third Law
