Work Energy Principle

Mr. Andersen explains the work-energy principle, focusing on kinetic energy and its equivalence to work. He defines energy as the ability to do work and describes kinetic energy as energy due to motion. The video covers how to calculate kinetic energy using work, discusses scenarios of positive and negative work, and explains how to handle forces not aligned with motion using trigonometry. Practical examples illustrate these concepts, emphasizing the equivalence of work and energy.
