Work and kinetic energy are defined as scalar energy and have the same units joules.
dW=F.dr = (dP/dt) dr=dP(dr/dt) = dPv = vdP= mvdv
W = F.r = mv^2/2.
Physics has defined scalar energy but has no definition for vector energy mcV.
Torque which is T= Fxr should be recognized as vector energy but it is defined as "Torque". This is another example of Physics not appreciating that the Universe is made of Quaternions, a Scalar part and a Vector part. E= FR = -F.R + FxR where the scalar energy has been defined as work (F.R) and the vector energy is defined as Torque FxR.
Kinetic energy is a transformation of work in terms of mass and velocity versus force and distance. The vector energy is not called energy.

What does not have the same units as the others Kinetic Energy Momentum Potential Energy or Work?
momentum
What is an example of work that you can do to transfer kinetic energy?
Any kind of movement is kinetic energy.
How Work related to potential ang kinetic energy?
Work is the change in kinetic energy and the change in potential energy. W=∆KE W=∆PE
What is the capacity of a body or system to do work called?
In Physics, the capacity or ability to do work is called ENERGY. The two main forms of Mechanical energy are KINETIC (related to motion) and POTENTIAL (related to a field of force). Kinetic energy is given by: 1/2 x mass x velocity squared Potential energy is given by mass x gravitational force x height If SI units are used, the answer is in Joules. 1 Joule of energy = 1 Newton.metre of work
How does kinetic energy and potential energy switch?
work=change in kinetic energy, doing work on an object by moving it up increases that object's potential energy because it has the POTENTIAL to fall due to gravity. kinetic energy is lost in the movement of the object. However, throughout an entire closed system, the total energy in joules (or kinetic enery plus potential energy) does remain constant. this is useful because the initial energy and the final energy most be equal, and if thats true, then initial kinetic energy plus initial potential energy must equal final kinetic energy plus final potential energy. does that help?
What does not have the same units as the others Kinetic Energy Momentum Potential Energy or Work?
momentum
What unit use for work potential and kinetic?
Work uses the same unit as energy. Ideally, you would use the same units for work, potential energy, kinetic energy, or any other type of energy. In the SI, that is the joule.
Is kinetic energy at work when something is thrown?
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion; a thrown object has kinetic energy.
What is the relation between kinetic energy and work?
Kinetic energy is one type of energy; work is the transfer of certain types of energy.
What is energy and how is it different from kinetic energy?
Energy is the capacity to do work, and kinetic energy is the energy of an object due to its motion.
What is an example of work that you can do to transfer kinetic energy?
Any kind of movement is kinetic energy.
Which forms of energy can do work?
The forms of energy that do work is kinetic energy.
If work done on an object is equal to object's change in kinetic energy this the state of?
the Work-Energy Theorem states the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy.
How Work related to potential ang kinetic energy?
Work is the change in kinetic energy and the change in potential energy. W=∆KE W=∆PE
How does an elastic power car work?
Elastic cars work by converting elastic potential energy into kinetic energy. The most potential energy, the more kinetic energy.
What is a measure of the kinetic energy of the individual particles in a object called?
A measure of the average kinetic energy of the individual particles in an object is called temperature.
What is the relationship between the kinetic energy and the physical state of the substance they compose?
Kinetic energy is energy of matter. The kinetic is doing work. Tempature is measured of average energy of motion, particles of matter. The physical is pretty much doing the same thing as the kinetic. They both are doing work.
