1. Is work of a spring the same as the potential energy of a spring? U = .5kx^2?
2. Do springs have a kinetic energy formula? If so, what is it?
3. Work is the same as energy right? Because work and energy are both in joules, right?
work = fdcostheta = kgm^2/s^2 = Newton meter = joule
energy:
kinetic energy = 1/2mv^2 = kgm^2/s^2 = Newton meter = joule
potential energy = mgh = kgm/s^2m = Newton meter = joule
Thank you for your help.
