Answer:

Mechanical work or work, kinetic and potential energy, etc

Explanation:

Like in this work equation, W= FcosD

where F is the magnitude of the force acting on the object

where D is the magnitude of the object's displacement

where cos is the angle between the force and displacement vectors

hope that helps..
