By the end of the lesson, trainees should be able to:
1. Define energy and briefly discuss each of the following forms of energy:
 Potential energy
 Kinetic energy
 Heat energy
 Electrical energy
 Chemical energy
2. Formulate the law of conservation of energy
3. Differentiate between Radiation, Convectionand Conduction

energy by means of the law of conservation of energy (no fom1ulae).
5. Define the terms 'work' and 'power'.
6. Plot force/distance graphs according to scale of the work done to lift a load by
means of a constant force.
7. Determine from the graph the work done, and then calculate the power
required.
8. Calculate the work done and the power required on a horizontal and vertical
plane by application and manipulation of the formulae: W=Fxs ;P=w/t; P= Fxv
9. Restricted to motion at constant velocity and applied forces parallel to the plane
only

Introduction and Testing of Prior Knowledge
Work, Energy and Power are fundamental concepts of Physics. Work is said to be
done when a force (push or pull) applied to an object causes a displacement of the
object. We define the capacity to do the work as energy. Power is the work done
per unit of time. This article discusses work, energy and power in detail

Conclusion and Summary
Work
Definition-The work done by a force is defined to be the product of component of
the force in the direction of the displacement and the magnitude of this
displacement.
Formula Work can be calculated by multiplying Force and Distance in the direction
of force as follows
W = F × d Unit The SI unit of work is the Joule (J)
Energy
Definition-Energy is defined as the capacity to do work.
Formula The energy stored in an object due to its position and height is known as
potential energy and is given by the formula:
P.E. = mgh Unit The SI unit of energy is Joules (J).
Power
Definition-Power is defined as the rate at which work is done.
Formula The formula for power is P = W/t, Unit The SI unit of power is Watt (W).
