Best Answer

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
