Term: Energy
Definition: The capacity to do work or cause change; exists in various forms including kinetic, potential, thermal, chemical, electrical, nuclear, light, and sound energy.
Term: Work
Definition: The process of energy transfer that occurs when an object is moved by an external force in the direction of the force.
Term: Power
Definition: The rate at which work is performed or energy is transferred, measured in watts.
Term: Efficiency
Definition: The ratio of useful energy output to total energy input, often expressed as a percentage.
Term: Mechanical Advantage
Definition: A measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device, or machine.
