Negative work occurs when the force applied to an object is in the opposite direction of the object's motion, resulting in a decrease in the object's energy. In contrast, positive work occurs when the force applied is in the same direction as the object's motion, leading to an increase in the object's energy.
What else can I help you with?
Is the work done on a system positive or negative?
The work done on a system is positive when energy is added to the system, and negative when energy is removed from the system.
Does the work-kinetic energy theorem hold for both positive and negative work?
Yes, the work-kinetic energy theorem holds for both positive and negative work. Positive work increases the kinetic energy of an object, while negative work decreases it. The theorem states that the net work done on an object is equal to the change in its kinetic energy.
Is the work done by the system is considered as positive or on the system is considered as positive?
Work done by the system is considered as PositiveWork done on the system is considered as Negative
When do you say that the work done is positive or negative?
There are different conventions as to what work is negative and what work is positive. The convention used by engineers and physicists is that work done BY the system on its surroundings is positive while work done ON the system by its surroundings is negative. Chemists reverse these conventions.
What are the differences between positive and negative work in the context of physics?
In physics, positive work occurs when a force is applied in the same direction as the displacement of an object, resulting in energy being transferred to the object. Negative work occurs when the force is applied in the opposite direction of the displacement, causing the object to lose energy. Positive work increases the object's kinetic energy, while negative work decreases it.
When work is positive and when is negative?
when work is positive and when playing is negative
Can work positive or Negative in physics how?
Yes Work can be positive or Negative.
Should positive go to positive in a circuit?
No, this will not work. Postitive to Negative/Negative to Positive will work.
What are positive and negative work ethics?
what is positive and negative
When swimming work done is positive or negative?
Positive.
How do you determine a work done is positive sign or negative sign?
If work is done on the system then it has a negative sign. If work is done by the system then it has a positive sign.
Does air friction do positive negative or zero work on your car when you are coasting?
negative work
Is a negative a positive is what?
A Negative plus a positive = a negative because negative and a positive cannot work together Negative + Negative= Positive Positive + Positive = Positive when your dealing with numbers such as : -2 + 2 would equal a negative 4 -2 +-2 would equal a positive 4
Is the work done on a system positive or negative?
The work done on a system is positive when energy is added to the system, and negative when energy is removed from the system.
If a process is carried out at constant pressure P and the volume V of the system decreases then V is negative positive and the work w is negative positive zero?
In this case, V would be negative, and work w would be positive.
How do you work out how to times a positive number by a negative number?
A positive number times a positive number will always get you a positive number A negative number times a negative number will always get you a positive number (same signs will get you a positive number) but A positive number times a negative number will always get you a negative number or A negative number times a positive number will always get you a negative number (different signs will get you a negative number)
Does the work-kinetic energy theorem hold for both positive and negative work?
Yes, the work-kinetic energy theorem holds for both positive and negative work. Positive work increases the kinetic energy of an object, while negative work decreases it. The theorem states that the net work done on an object is equal to the change in its kinetic energy.
