Part 1
Work

2. Section 1 Objectives
Recognize the difference between the scientific and the ordinary definitions of work.
Define work by relating it to force and displacement.
Identify where work is being performed in a variety of situations.
Calculate the net work done when many forces are applied to an object.

3. Definition of Work Clip 595
Work is done on an object when a force causes a displacement of the object.
Work = Force X Distance
w = Fd
Work can only be done in the direction of the force.

4. Work con’t
Is there work being performed?
Why or why not

5. Work con’t What happens when you apply a force at an angle?
Imagine you are pushing a crate across the floor. d θ F

6. Work con’t
Only the horizontal component of you applied force causes a displacement.
Work in our crate problem is
W = Fdcosθ
If many forces are acting on an object then we write the equation as
Wnet = Fnetdcosθ

7. SI Units for Work Work has the dimensions of force times length.
So, work has the units of Newton x meter or Joules
Work is positive when displacement is in the same direction of the force, and negative when opposite of the force.

8. Sample Problem A
How much work is done on a vacuum cleaner pulled 3.0 m by a force of 50 N at an angle of 30.0° above the horizon?
A tugboat pulls a ship with a constant net horizontal force of 5000 N and causes a ship to move through a harbor. How much work is done on the ship if it moves a distance of 3.00 km?
If 2.0 J of work is done in raising an 180 g apple, how far is it lifted?

Energy

11. Section II Objectives Identify several forms of energy.
Calculate kinetic energy for an object
Apply the work-kinetic energy theorem to solve problems.
Distinguish between kinetic and potential energy
Classify different types of potential energy
Calculate the potential energy associated with an objects position.

12. Kinetic Energy Kinetic energy is associated with an object in motion.
Kinetic energy depends on speed and mass.
KE = ½ mv2
Kinetic energy = ½ X mass X (speed)2

What is the speed of a .145 kg baseball if its kinetic energy is 109J?

14. The Work-Energy Theorem
Defined as
The net work done by all the forces acting on an object is equal to the change in the object’s kinetic energy.
Wnet = ∆KE
= ½ mvf2 – ½ mvi2

15. Sample Problem C
On a frozen pond, a person kicks a 10.0 kg sled, giving it an initial speed of 2.2 m/s. How far does the sled move if the coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the ice is .10.
A 2000 kg car accelerates from rest under the actions of two forces. One is a forward force of 1140 N provided by the traction between the wheels and the road. The other is a 950 N resistive force due to various frictional forces. Use the work-kinetic energy theorem to determine how far the car must travel for its speed to reach 2.0 m/s.
A 75 kg bobsled is pushed along a horizontal surface by two athletes. After the bobsled is pushed a distance of 4.5 m starting from rest, its speed is 6.0 m/s. Find the magnitude of the net force on the bobsled.

16. Potential Energy
Potential energy is stored energy. It is energy associated with an object because of the position, shape, or condition of the object.
Gravitational potential energy depends on height from zero level.
PEg = mgh
Gravitational potential energy
= mass X gravity X height
PEelastic = ½ kx2
Elastic potential energy
= ½ spring constant X (distance)2

A 70.0 kg stuntman is attached to a bungee cord with an unstretched length of 15.0 m. He jumps off a bridge spanning a river from a height of 50.0m. When he finally stops, the cord has a stretched length of 44.0m. Treat the stuntman as a point mass, and disregard the weight of the bungee cord. Assuming the spring constant of the bungee cord is 71.8 N/m, what is the total potential energy relative to the water when the man stops falling?
The staples inside a stapler are kept in place by a spring with a relaxed length of .115 m. If the spring constant is 51.0 N/m, how much elastic potential energy is stored in the spring when its length is .015 m?

19. Section 3 Conservation of Energy

20. Section Objectives
Identify situations in which conservation of mechanical energy is valid.
Recognize the forms that conserved energy can take.
Solve problems using the conservation of mechanical energy.

21. Conserved Quantities When something is conserved it means constant.
It can change, but the amount must be the same.
Example
Conservation of mass - if a light bulb shatters on the ground. No matter how many pieces the total mass of the pieces will equal the mass of the light bulb.

22. Mechanical Energy
Mechanical Energy is defined as the sum of the kinetic and all of the forms of potential energy associated with an object or a group of objects.
ME = KE + PE
Mechanical energy is conserved
MEi = MEf
KEi + PEi = KEf + Pef
1/2mvi2 + mghi = 1/2mvf2 + mghf

The rate at which work is done
A quantity that measures the rate of which work is done or energy is transformed.
