Thursday, 9/11 Unit 2: Work, Power, and Energy Pick up a calculator or take out your calculator for the quiz. Pick up a red pen (by the black trays) Take out your homework from Tuesday. Upcoming dates ‘A’ day Unit 2 test – Wednesday, 9/17 Last day to turn in 1SW extra credit – Friday, 9/19
3
Review homework

Quiz Take out your Energy notes, homework, practice problems, etc. All phones need to be in your bag (don’t have a bag…put it on my desk) Remember phone out during a quiz/test = cheating no questions asked. When you are done with quiz flip your paper over so I know you are done. The quiz will end 15 minutes after we begin.

Elastic Potential Energy Read the information about potential energy During your second reading, highlight the following words: Spring Elastic Energy Potential energy Stretch Compress Force Spring constant Equilibrium position

Elastic Potential Energy Example A plastic bullet with a mass of.45 kg is put into a toy gun. The spring in the gun has a spring constant of 200 N/m. The spring is compressed.20 meters before the bullet is released. What is the potential energy of the bullet before the trigger is pulled?

Practice problem 1 A plastic bullet with a mass of.20 kg is put into a toy gun. The spring in the gun has a spring constant of 100 N/m. The spring is compressed 4.0 x 10 -3 meters before the bullet is released. What is the potential energy of the bullet before the trigger is pulled?

Practice problem 2 A plastic bullet with a mass of.35 kg is put into a toy gun. The spring in the gun has a spring constant of 300 N/m. The spring is compressed 6.0 x 10 -3 meters before the bullet is released. What is the potential energy of the bullet before the trigger is pulled?

Power in Physics Is a measure of how much work you do in a certain amount of time. Remember W = F x d The relationship of power can be analyzed by using the following equation:
