    move in the direction of force. W = F x s. SI unit of work is joule. Energy is the capacity to do work. The two types of mechanical energy are kinetic energy and potential energy. Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object by virtue of its motion. Potential energy is the energy possessed by an object by virtue of its position or condition. Kinetic energy = 1/2 mv2. Potential energy = mgh. Law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed

    We know this due to Newton’s Second Law of Motion stating, “that force equals mass times the acceleration.” (Kirkpatrick 37) So with a mass that is constant (the golf ball), the velocity of the swing can be important if you want to hit the ball a long way. An example of this would be Bobby Jones’s

    contributions have no real world applications, however, that would be very incorrect. Completing the square is very useful for quadratic equations, which we have mentioned before. The question lies, where do we use quadratic equations? When projectiles are put into motion they create a parabolic path, to calculate the speed and height at which they travel completing the square would come in handy. Another example would be traveling by boat, or foot, or any other method. You would go one way, then probably
