Interpretation

Positive work: Energy is transferred TO the object (speeds up or gains height).

The work-energy theorem states that the net work done on an object equals its change in kinetic energy.

Work: W = F * d * cos(theta)

Kinetic Energy: KE = (1/2) * m * v^2

Potential Energy: PE = m * g * h

Work-Energy Theorem: W_net = KE_f - KE_i = Delta_KE

Gravity: g = 9.81 m/s^2
