what is the machenical energy ?
Mechanical energy
Mechanical energy is the energy which uses by a body or object to do work done due to its motion and its position.
via GIPHY
In other word mechanical energy of a object is the sum of kinetic energy due to its motion and potential energy due to change in its position
Mechanical energy = kinetic energy +potential energy
KINETIC ENERGY- Kinetic energy is the form of energy which is responsible to being in motion of object or body.
Calculation of kinetic energy when a body or object is in motion-
Suppose that a object is in rest position when a force F applied on it it made displacement S in the direction of applied force and a work is done on the object by applied force.
E= mgh
In other words "Work done on a body or object to change its position this work done on object or body convert in potential energy"
