Deduce how work done is related to energy when 1 - friction is present 2 when friction is not present
If there is friction, then work done by frictional forces convert Part of the energy into heat. If there is no friction, work W = E, energy Energy is ability to do work, work increases E.g kinetic energy or potential energy of the object.
Thnax. but if you could elaborate it with mathematical equations plz
If a body is lifted, W = mgh= Change of potential energy If speed changes, W = 0,5mv^2= change of kinetic energy If a body has potential energy Ep and it slides down a distance s And there is friction force F, then work done by friction is W = Fs. Then final kinetic energy Ek = Ep - W, because friction takes part of the original Energy and converts it into heat.
thanx
