The work-energy theorem states that the work done on an object is equal to a change in which quantity?

The work-energy theorem says that the net work done on an object equals its change in kinetic energy: W_net = ΔK. Therefore, the correct choice is kinetic energy. Displacement may be involved in calculating work, but it is not the quantity that changes by an amount equal to the work.
