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)
