‘Work’ in science
‘Work’ in science ‘Work’ in science and ‘work’ in everyday life are a little different. In science, ‘work’ is to apply a force to an object and move it in the direction…

In a potential energy measurement experiment, why should an object be lifted slowly at a constant velocity?
In a potential energy measurement experiment, why should an object be lifted slowly at a constant velocity? Lifting a stationary object causes a ‘some’ change in the object’s motion. You need force…
