Work is done when a force causes an object to undergo displacement. Work is calculated as the product of the force (F) and displacement (s) in the direction of the force (W=Fs). Energy is the ability to do work and exists in various forms including mechanical, heat, electrical, sound, light, and chemical. Mechanical energy exists in two forms: kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion calculated as one-half the mass (m) times the velocity (v) squared (K=1/2mv^2); and potential energy, which is the energy due to an object's position or strain and is calculated as the product of mass (m), gravitational acceleration (g), and height (
