Work, Energy, and Power

Define work done by a constant force and calculate it for forces applied at an angle to displacement.

Relate the net work done on an object to the change in its kinetic energy (Work-Energy Theorem).

Explain the difference between conservative forces (like gravity) and non-conservative forces (like friction).

Apply the principle of conservation of mechanical energy to solve problems involving gravity (e.g., pendulums, free fall).

Define power as the rate of energy transfer and relate it to a real-world context, like a robotic motor.
