Energy of motion.

Momentum

$p = mv$

Mass × velocity.

Work

$W = Fd\cos\theta$

Force × displacement × cos(angle).

Key Points

The total current in parallel circuit is equal to the sum of the currents in all the branches of the circuit.
The total voltage across a parallel circuit is equal to the voltage across any of the branches in the circuit.
The total resistance of a parallel circuit is calculated by using Ohm's law on the voltage and current of the whole circuit.
