Work – the product of force and the distance traveled The unit of Work is a Joule (J) Work= Force × distance W = F ● d Distance (m) Force (N) Work (joules)
Pushing a Crate 10 feet? OR Pushing a Crate 100 feet?
During the ascent phase of a rep of the bench press, the lifter exerts an average vertical force of 1000 N against a barbell while the barbell moves 0.8 m upward. How much work did the lifter do to the barbell? Force = Distance = Work = 1000 N 0.8 m (1000 N) × (0.8 m) = 800 joules
Calculate the work needed to push a block with 4 newtons of force a distance of 10 meters. Force = Distance = Work = 4 N 10 m (4 N) × (10 m) = 40 joules
An automobile engine exerts a force of 500 newtons on a car to travel 4,000 meters. What is the amount of work done by the engine? Force = Distance = Work = 500 N 4,000 m (500 N) × (4,000 m) = 2,000,000 joules
Power – the rate of doing work The Unit of Power is a Watt (W) Power = Work time (in seconds) P = W same as P = F d t t
He-Man who can push a crate 100 feet in 1 second using 5 Newtons? OR Skeletor, who can push a crate 100 feet in 45 seconds using 5 Newtons? 1 second 45 seconds
How much power is necessary to do 50 joules of work in 5 seconds? Work = Time = Power = 50 joules 5 s (50 J) ÷ (5 s) = 10 watt
An electrical water heater raises the temperature of water by adding 8,000 joules of energy to the water in 40 seconds. What is the minimum power required by the water heater? Work = Time = Power = 8,000 joules 40 s (8,000 J) ÷ (40 s) = 200 watt
Jake, who weighs 680 newtons, climbs a 6 meter ladder in 8 seconds. What was Jake’s power? Force = Distance = Work = Time = Power = 680 N 6 m (680N) × (6 m) = 4,080 joules 8 s (4,080 J) ÷ (8 s) = 510 watt
