Do Now: 1. Calculate the distance between two 75 kg individuals that have a gravitational attraction of 8.34 x 10-7N.
2
Aim: How do we relate work and energy?
Do Now: Quiz HW: Problem Set
3
Demos Pulling Jeff around the room. Jeff lifting up his desk
Jeff holding his desk Jeff’s desk sitting there without Jeff Work done No Work

Work Work: Energy transferred by a force. Energy: Ability to do work
W = FIId Cosθ Unit: Joule (J) Energy or Work is a scalar quantity Dakota pulls Alicia 20 meters with a rope at a 30o angle and in doing so applies a force of 10 Newtons. How much work does he do?
5
NO! In order for work to be done on the box it must MOVE!
More on Work… A person is trying to push a heavy box across a classroom floor, but the box does not move. Is work being done on the box? NO! In order for work to be done on the box it must MOVE!
6
Doing work on an incline
30m 35N A box is pulled up a 30 meter long inclined plane at an angle of 30º with a force of 35 Newtons at constant speed. Calculate the work done by the 35 N force in moving the box. WORK IS DONE IN THE DIRECTION OF THE NET FORCE!!! If distance and Force are Parallel then we are O.K!!!
7
Station 1 15N 40° A wagon is pulled a horizontal distance of 5 meters with a force of 15 Newtons at an angle of 40º above the horizontal. How much work is done?
8
Station 2 A 50kg crate full of twinkies is pushed 30 meters up a 20o incline with a constant speed and force of 200N. What is the work due to friction? (Hint: Sketch)
9
Summary What is the definition for work? What is the exact equation for work? What are the units? The Whole World is Made of Energy
