  2. W =F ⋅d = Fd cos0 = mgd = 10 kg × 9.8 m s−2 × 1 m = 98 J. Energy is classically defined as the capacity of a physical system to do work, or in other words: as you perform work, you exchange energy for some physical effect by doing work.

  3. How is information related to energy in physics?

    physics.stackexchange.com/questions/22084

    3. Energy is the relationship between information regimes. That is, energy is manifested, at any level, between structures, processes and systems of information in all of its forms, and all entities in this universe is composed of information. To understand information and energy, consider a hypothetical universe consisting only of nothingness.

  4. What is Pressure Energy? - Physics Stack Exchange

    physics.stackexchange.com/questions/216342

    The pressure energy is the energy in/of a fluid due to the applied pressure (force per area). So if you have a static fluid in an enclosed container, the energy of the system is only due to the pressure; if the fluid is moving along a flow, then the energy of the system is the kinetic energy as well as the pressure.

  5. What happens to the energy when waves perfectly cancel each...

    physics.stackexchange.com/questions/23930

    In physics, the Poynting vector represents the directional energy flux density (the rate of energy transfer per unit area, in Watts per square metre, W·m−2) of an electromagnetic field. If the antilaser antilaser experiment is performed in the vacuum there is no thermal dissipation, and the Poynting vectors are opposed, and cancel, for the ...

  6. terminology - What is pure energy? - Physics Stack Exchange

    physics.stackexchange.com/questions/15122/what-is-pure-energy

    0. I think pure energy refers to energy existing without matter. Energy is usually regarded as a property of an object. Light, having no mass, could then be regarded as pure energy. The energy is conserved in the form of momentum. When a photon strikes an atom it gains energy, nothing else and the photon ceases to exist.

  7. What is high energy physics? - Physics Stack Exchange

    physics.stackexchange.com/questions/196627/what-is-high-energy-physics

    Elementary particle physics is an outgrowth of what was high energy physics, historically at the time. X-rays were high energy physics when first discovered, they are part of the tools of solid state physics now. Alpha particles and gamma rays were high energy physics at their time, they are nuclear physics now.

  8. What exactly is potential energy? - Physics Stack Exchange

    physics.stackexchange.com/questions/754638/what-exactly-is-potential-energy

    Potential energy is the energy possessed by it by the virtue of its position, shape or configuration. This simply means that work is done on an object and it gains some energy. But this energy, instead of initiating any change in the velocity of the object, simply gets stored. Consider a ball falling from a height h.

  9. What are negative and positive energies? - Physics Stack Exchange

    physics.stackexchange.com/questions/213084/what-are-negative-and-positive-energies

    1. 1)What do we mean by negative and positive energies in physics? Negative energies are lower than positive energies. Most areas of physics only care about whether one energy is lower than another and by how much. 2)I have seen in a minute physics video that we need negative energy to prevent a wormhole from collapsing.

  10. Why is particle physics called high energy physics?

    physics.stackexchange.com/.../why-is-particle-physics-called-high-energy-physics

    This all, in the end, motivates us to use high energy physics synonymously for particle physics. Fun fact: If you were to accelerate a ball at the LHC, you would need a fantastic amount of energy which would almost correspond to 1021 10 21 J (to do the order-of-magnitude estimate on your own, consider the approximate number of nucleons in the ...

  11. mass - What is Energy made of? - Physics Stack Exchange

    physics.stackexchange.com/questions/14444

    mr = E/c2 m r = E / c 2 or equivalently mr = γ ×m0 m r = γ × m 0. where m0 m 0 is called the rest mass of a particle or a system and is an invariant quantity under four dimensional transformations, characterizing the Energy_momentum four vector of the system. m20 =E2 −p2 m 0 2 = E 2 − p 2 where E E is the total energy of a system of ...
