2. Work : Calculating the work is easy when the force and distance are constant. When the amount of force varies, we get to use calculus! Units: English: foot-lbs Metric: newton-meter 1 newton-meter = 1 joule

3. Over a very short distance, even a non-constant force doesn’t change much, so work becomes: If we add up all these small bits of work we get:

4. Hooke’s law for springs: x = distance that the spring is extended beyond its natural length k = spring constant

5. Hooke’s law for springs: Example: It takes 10 Newtons to stretch a spring 2 meters beyond its natural length. F =10 N x =2 M How much work is done stretching the spring to 4 meters beyond its natural length?

6. F(x)F(x) x =4 M How much work is done stretching the spring to 4 meters beyond its natural length? For a very small change in x, the force is constant. newton-metersjoules 

7. Example: A spring has a natural length of 1 m. A force of 24 N stretches the spring to 1.8 m. a Find k : b How much work would be needed to stretch the spring 3m beyond its natural length?

8. A leaky 5 lb bucket is raised 20 feet The rope weighs 0.08 lb/ft. The bucket starts with 2 gal (16 lb) of water and is empty when it just reaches the top. Work: Bucket: Water:The force is proportional to remaining rope. Check:
