What is
ΔEp = ΔEk + W
I have come across this formula, but i haven't seen it before. What is it used for?

The equation for calculating kinetic energy is KE = 1/2 * m * v^2, where KE is kinetic energy, m is mass, and v is velocity.
The formula for calculating potential energy is PE = m * g * h, where PE is potential energy, m is mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height of the object.
To calculate the total energy of a system, you can use the equation E = KE + PE, where E is the total energy, KE is kinetic energy, and PE is potential energy.
Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to its motion, while potential energy is the energy an object possesses due to its position or state.
In the equation E=mc^2, E represents energy, m represents mass, and c represents the speed of light. This equation shows that energy and mass are equivalent and can be converted into one another.
