1496 - Why doesn't the ability of the same energy system to do work differ.

Imagine you have different machines that can turn the same battery's energy into work. Even though the machines are different, the energy they get from the battery is the same.

The reason the machines can do the same amount of work is because the energy is what matters, not the machine itself. The energy is like the 'fuel' that makes the machine work, and all machines use the same 'fuel' from the battery.

So, even if the machines are different, the amount of work they can do doesn't change because they all get the same amount of energy from the battery. That's why the ability of the same energy system to do work doesn't differ.
