Almost. Work is the transfer of energy from one to the other.
The rate at which that happens is power.

What is the transfer of energy as the result of motion of called?
Work the transfer of energy as the result of motion is called work. Motion is when one object's distance from another is changing.
It isn't possible to transfer heat from an object at a lower temperature to another object at a higher temperature unless?
It isn't possible to transfer heat from an object at a lower temperature to another object at higher temperature unless work is done to the system. An example of this is a refrigerator.
What transfer energy through motion?
Work the transfer of energy as the result of motion is called work. Motion is when one object's distance from another is changing.
Does the machine transfer energy?
When the process energy is transferred, it moves from one object of energy to another. Machines do transfer energy through the process of mechanical work.
Can work be used as another name for energy?
Not quite, but the two are related. Work may be thought of as "transfer of energy". Thus, an object doesn't "have" work, it only has energy. The two are not used interchangeably.

How are energy work and waves related?
Wave is the transfer of CERTAIN TYPES of energy; basically mechanical energy - this happens when an object pushes against another object.Waves transfer energy from one place to another.

If you do work on an object in half the time, your power output is?
If you do work on an object in half the your power output is
What is accomplished when an object is moved by force?
Work is done when a force acts on an object as the object moves from one place to another. Work is defined as force times distance.
What is the transfer of energy that causes an object to move in the direction of the force called?
The transfer of energy that causes an object to move in the direction of the force is called work.
How is energy transferred when one object does work another?
Energy can be transferred from one location to another, as in the sun's energy travels through space to Earth. The two ways that energy can be transferred are by doing work and heat transfer.
Relation of power with work and time?
Power = energy / time"Energy" refers to transfer of energy, and it may specifically refer to work (which is the transfer of mechanical energy).
Is energy the same thing as work?
Not exactly, but they are closely related. Both have the same units, but "work" specifically refers to a TRANSFER of mechanical energy. When "work is done", mechanical energy is transferred from one object to another.
