    This document provides definitions and explanations of key concepts in physics related to work, energy, and power. It defines kinetic energy as the energy possessed by a moving object. Work is done when a force is applied to an object and moves it, and is calculated as the product of the force and displacement. Power is defined as the rate of doing work or expending energy over time. Simple machines, such as levers, inclined planes, wedges, pulleys, screws, and wheels and axles are described as devices that change the magnitude or direction of force to make work easier. Efficiency is the ratio of useful output work or energy to the total input.
