Solve the classic blob jump physics problem using the Work–Energy Theorem. Follow how gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy, and energy transfer explain the launch speed and maximum height, ...

The first semester of an undergraduate physics course invariably spends a lot of time on two big ideas: The momentum principle and the work energy principle. Both deal with forces acting on an object, ...

This video shows how to apply the work–energy principle to real physical systems beyond ideal point particles. Learn how external work, internal forces, and energy losses are handled in practical ...
