More on work and conservation of energy (6)

Physics: Kinetic energy. Work and the work-energy theorem. Conservative and nonconservative forces. Gravitational potential energy; spring potential energy. Total mechanical energy. Net work by nonconservative forces = ΔE. Conservation of energy problems. A problem in which mechanical energy is not conserved.

@joejacksonriley U is most common way of writing potential energy.

@ladygurl212 its on his website, you can find a link under the video info box. on the far right side it says document description , its like the 7th or 9th link down.

Would it be possible for yu to post the handouts you mention in the videos on your website?

Why did you use 'U' for potential energy? Don't you usually use 'PE.'
