1 WORK, POWER, AND MACHINES 9.1

2 WORK  A quantity that measures the effects of a force acting over a distance  Work = force x distance  W = Fd

3 WORK  Work is measured in: NmNm  Joules (J)

4 WORK EXAMPLE  A crane uses an average force of 5200 N to lift a girder 25 m. How much work does the crane do?

5 WORK EXAMPLE  Work = Fd  Work = (5200 N)(25m)  Work = 130000 N  m = 130000 J

6 POWER  A quantity that measures the rate at which work is done  Power = work/time  P = W/t

7 POWER  Watts (W) is the SI unit for power  1 W = 1 J/s

8 POWER EXAMPLE  While rowing in a race, John uses 19.8 N to travel 200.0 meters in 60.0 s. What is his power output in Watts?

9 POWER EXAMPLE  Work = Fd  Work = 19.8 N x 200.0 m= 3960 J  Power = W/t  Power = 3960 J/60.0 s  Power = 66.0 W

10 MACHINES  Help us do work by redistributing the force that we put into them  They do not change the amount of work

11 MACHINES  Change the direction of an input force (ex car jack)

12 MACHINES  Increase an output force by changing the distance over which the force is applied (ex ramp)  Multiplying forces

13 MECHANICAL ADVANTAGE  A quantity that measures how much a machine multiples force or distance.

14 MECHANICAL ADVANTAGE Output Force Input Force Input distance Output Distance Mech. Adv = Mech. Adv. =

15 MECH. ADV. EXAMPLE  Calculate the mechanical advantage of a ramp that is 6.0 m long and 1.5 m high.

16 MECH. ADV. EXAMPLE  Input = 6.0 m  Output = 1.5 m  Mech. Adv.=6.0m/1.5m  Mech. Adv. = 4.0

17 ENERGY 9.3-9.4

18 ENERGY AND WORK  Energy is the ability to do work  whenever work is done, energy is transformed or transferred to another system.

19

20 ENERGY  Energy is measured in:  Joules (J)  Energy can only be observed when work is being done on an object

21 POTENTIAL ENERGY PE  the stored energy resulting from the relative positions of objects in a system

22 POTENTIALENERGY PE POTENTIAL ENERGY PE  PE of any stretched elastic material is called Elastic PE  ex. a rubber band, bungee cord, clock spring

23

24

25 GRAVITATIONAL PE  energy that could potentially do work on an object due to the forces of gravity.

26 GRAVITATIONAL PE  depends both on the mass of the object and the distance between them (height)

27 GRAVITATIONAL PE EQUATION grav. PE= mass x gravity x height PE = mgh or PE = wh

28 PE EXAMPLE  A 65 kg rock climber ascends a cliff. What is the climber’s gravitational PE at a point 35 m above the base of the cliff?

29 PE EXAMPLE  PE = mgh  PE=(65kg)(9.8m/s 2 )(35m)  PE = 2.2 x 10 4 J  PE = 22000 J

30 KINETIC ENERGY  the energy of a moving object due to its motion.  depends on an objects mass and speed.

31 KINETIC ENERGY  What influences energy more: speed or mass? ex. Car crashes  Speed does

32 KINETIC ENERGY EQUATION KE=1/2 x mass x speed squared KE = ½ mv 2

33 KE EXAMPLE  What is the kinetic energy of a 44 kg cheetah running at 31 m/s?

34 KE EXAMPLE  KE = ½ mv 2  KE= ½(44kg)(31m/s) 2  KE=2.1 x 10 4 J  KE = 21000 J

35

36 MECHANICAL ENERGY  the sum of the KE and the PE of large-scale objects in a system  work being done

37 NONMECHANICAL ENERGY  Energy that lies at the level of atoms and does not affect motion on a large scale.

38 ATOMS  Atoms have KE, because they are constantly in motion.  KE  particles heat up  KE  particles cool down

39 CHEMICAL REACTIONS  during reactions stored energy (called chemical energy)is released  So PE is converted to KE

40 OTHER FORMS  nuclear fusion  nuclear fission  Electricity  Light

41 ENERGY TRANSFORMATIONS 9.4

42

43 CONSERVATION OF ENERGY  Energy is neither created nor destroyed  Energy is transferred

44 ENERGY TRANSFORMATION  PE becomes KE  car going down a hill on a roller coaster

45 ENERGY TRANSFORMATION  KE can become PE  car going up a hill KE starts converting to PE
