End Slide Kinetic Energy KE = 1/2mv2 DKE = KEf – KEo = 1/2mvf2 – 1/2mvo2 Kinetic Energy is the energy stored in the motion of an object. A change in Kinetic Energy will also mean a change in speed (magnitude of velocity).
End Slide A man with a mass of 88 kg is running at 18.0 m/s. What is his Kinetic Energy? KE = 1/2mv2 = 1/2(88)(18.02) = 14300 J
End Slide A plane has a mass of 180,000 kg and 1.41x108 J of Kinetic Energy. What is the plane’s speed? KE = 1/2mv2 1.41x108 = 1/2(180,000)(v2) 1.41x108 = 90,000v2 90,000 90,000 v2 = 15700 v = 125 m/s
End Slide A car of mass 3500 kg is moving at 20.0 m/s and slows to 5.0 m/s. What is DKE? DKE = 1/2m(vf2 – vo2) = 1/2(3500)(52 – 202) = 1750*(–375) = –656,250 J » –6.6x105 J
End Slide The same 3500-kg car is moving at 5.0 m/s. It stops and moves in reverse at -5.0 m/s. What is DKE? DKE = 1/2m(vf2 – vo2) = 1/2(3500)(-52 – 52) = 1750*(0) = 0 J
Elastic Collision For all collisions, momentum is conserved. End Slide Elastic Collision For all collisions, momentum is conserved. If Kinetic Energy is conserved (DKE = 0), then the collision is said to be elastic. If Kinetic Energy is not conserved (DKE ¹ 0), then the collision is inelastic. Realize that no collision is ever really perfectly elastic; however, some are close enough
Is this collision elastic? End Slide Is this collision elastic? Car 1 with a mass of 1200 kg moving at 25.0 m/s strikes Car 2 with half of Car 1’s mass while it’s sitting still. Car 2 flies off at 30.0 m/s while Car 1 moves at 10.0 m/s. DKE1 = 1/2m1(vf12 – vo12) = 1/2(1200)(102 – 252) = -315,000 J DKE2 = 1/2m2(vf22 – vo22) = 1/2(600)(302 – 02) = 270,000 J DKE1+DKE2 = -315,000+270,000 = -45,000J

End Slide A horizontal force of 3250 N is applied to a 110-kg mass initially at rest for a horizontal distance of 0.15 m. What is the final velocity of the mass? W = DKE F*Dx = 1/2m(vf2 – vo2) (3250)(0.15) = 1/2(110) (vf2 – 02) 487.5J = 55vf2 vf2 = 8.86 m2/s2 vf = 2.98 m/s

A player exerts a constant 4.50-N force to give the puck a velocity of 3.8 m/s. For what distance did the player apply the force to the puck?
