Question 1
The work-energy theorem is (assuming usual meanings for quantities)
W_(net )=\int_(vec(r)_(0))^(vec(r)_(f)) vec(F)_(net )*dvec(r)=(1)/(2)mv_(f)^(2)-(1)/(2)mv_(0)^(2)=\Delta K. The work-energy theorem is a purely
mathematical consequence of Newton's second law and is derived from it. In other words,
Newton's second law implies the work-energy theorem. For motion along one-dimension, for
example the x direction, this is \int_(x_(0))^(x_(f)) F_(net ,x)dx=(1)/(2)mv_(f,x)^(2)-(1)/(2)mv_(0,x)^(2).
Which of the following are true statements? Assume the usual meanings for quantities.
If vec(F)_(net )=mvec(a) is true, then so is W_(net )=\int_(vec(r)_(0))^(vec(r)_(f)) vec(F)_(net )*dvec(r)=(1)/(2)mv_(f)^(2)-(1)/(2)mv_(0)^(2)=\Delta K
Work is a vector quantity because it has a magnitude and can either be positive or negative.
A negative net work always implies a decrease of the object's kinetic energy.
