R: Quiz/Test? F: Momentum and Impulse (Momentum Sub-Unit)

2 Unit 3: Energy and Momentum
Energy Objectives: 1. Define work and calculate the work done by a force. 2. Calculate the kinetic energy of a moving object. 3. Determine the gravitational potential energy of a system. 4. Calculate the power of a system. 5. Apply conservation of energy to analyze energy transitions and transformations in a system. 6. Analyze the relationship between work done on or by a system, and the energy gained or lost by that system. 7. Use Hooke's Law to determine the elastic force on an object. Calculate a system's elastic potential energy.

3 Power is defined as the rate at which work is done
It is often important to know not only if there is enough energy available to perform a task but also how much time will be required. Power is defined as the rate at which work is done W P = t Note: Two people can do the same amount of work, but the one doing it faster (in less time) will have the greater power output.

4 Power Units Since work is measured in Joules (J) and time is measured in seconds (s) the unit of power is Joules per second (J/s). However, in honor of James Watt, who made critical contributions in developing efficient steam engines, the unit of power is also know as a Watt (W). W P = t

Since W = Fd parallel P= t dparallel P = (F) t Since v = d/t P = (F) v So power can be defined as the product of the force applied and the velocity of the object parallel to that force.
