© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. The Basic Energy Model The energy of a system is a sum of its kinetic energy K, its potential energy U, and its thermal energy E th. The change in system energy is: 1.Energy can be transferred to or from a system by doing work W on the system. This process changes the energy of the system: - E sys = W. 2.Energy can be transformed within the system among K, U, and E th. These processes don’t change the energy of the system: - E sys = 0. Slide 11-22

© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Work and Kinetic Energy The word “work” has a very specific meaning in physics. Work is energy transferred to or from a body or system by the application of force. This pitcher is increasing the ball’s kinetic energy by doing work on it. Slide 11-25

© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Work and Kinetic Energy Consider a force acting on a particle which moves along the s -axis. The force component F s causes the particle to speed up or slow down, transferring energy to or from the particle. The force does work on the particle: The units of work are N m, where 1 N m = 1 kg m 2 /s 2 = 1 J. Slide 11-26
6
© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. The Work-Kinetic Energy Theorem The net force is the vector sum of all the forces acting on a particle. The net work is the sum W net = W i, where W i is the work done by each force. The net work done on a particle causes the particle’s kinetic energy to change. Slide 11-27

© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. An Analogy with the Impulse-Momentum Theorem The impulse-momentum theorem is: The work-kinetic energy theorem is: Impulse and work are both the area under a force graph, but it’s very important to know what the horizontal axis is! Slide 11-28

© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Work Done by a Constant Force A force acts with a constant strength and in a constant direction as a particle moves along a straight line through a displacement. The work done by this force is: Here is the angle makes relative to. Slide 11-31
9
© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Force Perpendicular to the Direction of Motion The figure shows a particle moving in uniform circular motion. At every point in the motion, F s, the component of the force parallel to the instantaneous displacement, is zero. The particle’s speed, and hence its kinetic energy, doesn’t change, so W = K = 0. A force everywhere perpendicular to the motion does no work. Slide 11-51
10
© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. The Dot Product of Two Vectors The figure shows two vectors, and, with angle between them. The dot product of and is defined as: The dot product is also called the scalar product, because the value is a scalar. Slide 11-54
11
© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Work Done by a Constant Force A force acts with a constant strength and in a constant direction as a particle moves along a straight line through a displacement. The work done by this force is: Slide 11-59
12
© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. The Work Done by a Variable Force To calculate the work done on an object by a force that either changes in magnitude or direction as the object moves, we use the following: We must evaluate the integral either geometrically, by finding the area under the curve, or by actually doing the integration. Slide 11-62
13
© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Conservative Forces The figure shows a particle that can move from A to B along either path 1 or path 2 while a force is exerted on it. If there is a potential energy associated with the force, this is a conservative force. The work done by as the particle moves from A to B is independent of the path followed. Slide 11-67
14
© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Nonconservative Forces The figure is a bird’s-eye view of two particles sliding across a surface. The friction does negative work: W fric = k mg s. The work done by friction depends on s, the distance traveled. This is not independent of the path followed. A force for which the work is not independent of the path is called a nonconservative force. Slide 11-68
15
© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Mechanical Energy Consider a system of objects interacting via both conservative forces and nonconservative forces. The change in mechanical energy of the system is equal to the work done by the nonconservative forces: Mechanical energy isn’t always conserved. As the space shuttle lands, mechanical energy is being transformed into thermal energy. Slide 11-69
16
© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Finding Force from Potential Energy The figure shows an object moving through a small displacement s while being acted on by a conservative force. The work done over this displacement is: Because is a conservative force, the object’s potential energy changes by U = −W = −F s Δs over this displacement, so that: Slide 11-73
17
© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Finding Force from Potential Energy In the limit s 0, we find that the force at position s is: The force on the object is the negative of the derivative of the potential energy with respect to position. Slide 11-74
18
© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Dissipative Forces As two objects slide against each other, atomic interactions at the boundary transform the kinetic energy K macro into thermal energy in both objects. Kinetic friction is a dissipative force. K E th Slide 11-80
19
© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Dissipative Forces The figure shows a box being pulled at a constant speed across a horizontal surface with friction. Both the surface and the box are getting warmer as it slides. Dissipative forces always increase the thermal energy; they never decrease it. Slide 11-81
20
© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Power The rate at which energy is transferred or transformed is called the power P. The SI unit of power is the watt, which is defined as: 1 watt = 1 W = 1 J/s The English unit of power is the horsepower, hp. 1 hp = 746 W Slide 11-98 Highly trained athletes have a tremendous power output.

© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Examples of Power Slide 11-101
22
© 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. Power When energy is transferred by a force doing work, power is the rate of doing work: P = dW/dt. If the particle moves at velocity while acted on by force, the power delivered to the particle is: Slide 11-102
