  1. Work and Energy

  2. ??Has Work Been Done?? 1) A teacher applies a force to a wall and become exhausted 2) A book falls off a table and free falls to the ground 3) A waiter carries a tray full of meals above his head by one arm across the room 4) A rocket accelerates through space

  3. Work is defined as a force acting upon an object to cause a displacement. There are three key words in this definition force, displacement, and cause. In order for a force to qualify as having done work on an object, there must be a displacement and the force must cause the displacement.

  4. If an object does not move then no work has been done. Force and displacement must both be in the same direction for work to have been done. Example: A Flag in a parade goes horizontally but the force being applied to the flag in order to hold it up is vertical. Therefore no work is done.

  5. ??Has Work Been Done?? 1) A teacher applies a force to a wall and become exhausted NO 2) A book falls off a table and free falls to the ground YES 3) A waiter carries a tray full of meals above his head by one arm across the room NO 4) A rocket accelerates through space YES

  6. Work Facts The formula for work is simply force times distance. The unit for Work is Nm or J(Joule) 1 Joule is the work done by a Force of 1 Newton in moving an object a distance of 1 meter.

  7. Example: What Work is done by pushing a physics text book with a Force of 20 N a Distance of 3m in an attempt to avoid doing homework.

  8. Example: Mr. Harper lifts up a 65kg student to a height of 0.50 m. a) What Force does Mr. Harper use to lift the student? First off: The applied force would be equal to the weight therefore we need to find weight.

  9. b) What work does he do?

  10. Example: If two physics students are rearranging a room and they decide to move a desk across the room, a total distance of 3.0 m. If they move the desk at a constant velocity by each exerting horizontal force of 200 N. Calculate the amount of work that was done to move the desk across the room.

  11. Example: A child ties a ball to the end of a 1 m long piece of string and swings the ball in a full circle. If the string exerts a continues force on the ball of 10 N, how much work does the string due on the ball during one full revolution? No distance. No work

  13. Force vs Distance Graphs If Mr. Harper was to push a square pig 4 m across the floor with a constant force of 10 N. How much work would Mr. Harper have done on the pig?

  14. Draw a force vs Distance graph of Mr. Harper pushing Peter the pig.

  15. Calculate the area under the graph. What does this area represent? The area under a force vs distance graph is equal to the work done by the force.

  16. Determine the amount of work done by the changing force in the given graph. 2.5 J 2 J 16 J 6J 2+2.5+16+6=26.5 =27J

  18. Positive and Negative Work Consider a weightlifter bench pressing a barbell weighing 650 N to a height of 0.55 m. There are two distinct motions, the first is when the barbell goes up and second is when the barbell is lower back down. Calculate the work done by the weightlifter during the two separate motions. Work done going up Work done going down Total work done ( 0 J )

  20. Energy There are many different forms of energy however all of which are measured in units of Joules. In this chapter we will look at two different forms of energy. Kinetic energy and potential energy. As well as how they are related to the concept of work. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vl4g7T5gw1M

  21. Kinetic Energy Kinetic energy: The energy of an object due to its motion. Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass and the velocity squared of a moving object.

  22. In Motion At Rest Example: A 0.200 kg hockey puck, initially at rest, is accelerated to 27.0 m/s. Calculate the kinetic energy of the puck both at rest, and in motion.

  23. Do Practice Problems Pg 238 (pdf 35) #’s 19-21

  24. The Work and Kinetic Energy Theorem In order to do work on object there must be a force applied to the object. When a force is applied to an object it will accelerate. When it accelerates there is an increase in velocity. An increase in velocity will cause an increase in kinetic Energy. Therefore, the work done on object is equal to the change in the kinetic Energy of the object.

  25. Example: A shot putter heaves a 7.26 kg shot with a final speed of 7.51 m/s. a) What was the kinetic energy of the shot? b) If the shot was initially at rest how much work was done on it to give its it this kinetic energy? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmshPC3zEPU

  26. Example: A physics student does work on a 2.5 kg curling stone by exerting a 40 N force to it horizontally over a distance of 1.5 m. a) Calculate the work done by the student on the stone.

  27. b) Assuming that the stone started from rest, calculate the velocity of the stone at the point of release. Consider the ice surface to be frictionless.

  28. Example: A 75 kg skateboarder initially moving at 8.0 m/s, exerts an average force of 200 N by pushing on the ground, over a distance of 5.0 m. Find the new kinetic energy of the skateboarder.

  30. What do all of these things have in common?

  31. Potential Energy Potential energy: is stored energy, or when an object has the potential to do work. There are many different types of potential energy such as a battery, a waterfall, a compressed spring, gasoline or anything that has the potential to do work. In this chapter will concentrate on what is called gravitational potential, or energy due to an objects position on earth. Often we refer to what is called the total mechanical energy of the system. Which is simply the total combined kinetic and gravitational potential energies. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9g6hUKx5xVc

  32. Gravitational potential energy is directly proportional to an object’s mass and height. The higher an object is lifted the more gravitational potential energy it will have. Also a more massive object will have a larger gravitational potential energy that a less massive object at the same height. Gravitational potential energy can be found using the following formula.

  33. Example: While setting up a tent you use a 3.0 kg rock to drive the tent pegs into the ground. If you lift the rock to a height of 0.68 m, what gravitational potential energy will the rock have?

  34. *** Caution *** When talking about gravitational potential energy you have to specify what the height is relative to. ie: the ground, the table, the top of the hill, the bottom of the hill, ect ....

  35. Example: A 2.0 kg textbook is lifted from the floor to a shelf 2.1 m above the floor. a) What is the gravitational potential energy relative to the floor? b) What is the gravitational potential energy relative to the head of a 1.65 m tall person?

  36. Do Practice Problems Pg 250 (pdf 36) #’s 27 & 29

  37. Gravitational Potential Energy and Work When you do work on an object by lifting it to a new relative height. The object will as a result have an increase in gravitational potential energy thus the work done on an object is equal to the change in the gravitational potential energy of the object.

  38. Example: A 65 kg rock climber did 16 kJ of work against gravity to reach a ledge. How high did the rock climber ascend?

  39. Question: You carry a heavy box up a flight of stairs. Your friend carries an identical box on an elevator to reach the same floor as you. Which one, you or your friend, did the greatest amount of work on the box against gravity? Because the change in gravitational potential energy of the two different boxes is the same, the work done on the two boxes are equal.

  40. So far we have discussed both the work/kinetic energy theorem and the work/potential energy theorem. In both cases the amount of work done on the system was equal to the change in energy of the system. As it turns out both theorems are a part of a single all encompassing theorem called the work /energy theorem. Where the work done on a system is equal the the change in the total mechanical energy of the system.

  42. Power

  43. Work has to do with a force causing a displacement. Work has nothing to do with the amount of time that this force acts to cause the displacement. Power is the rate at which work is done. How fast is the work being done. It can be found using the following equation.

  44. The metric unit of power is the Watt ( W ). As is implied by the equation for power, a unit of power is equivalent to a unit of work divided by a unit of time, thus, a Watt is equivalent to a Joule/second For historical reasons, the horsepower is occasionally used to describe the power delivered by a machine. One horsepower is equivalent to approximately 750 Watts.

  45. Example: In preparation for the next power outage Mr. Harper is trying to set up a generator. If the generator is capable of putting out 9.5 kW of power, what size of engine (in hp) will he need in order to run the generator?

  46. Example: A crane is capable of doing 1.5 x 105 J of work in 10 s. What is the power of the crane in watts?

  47. Example: A cyclist and her mountain bike have a combined mass of 60 kg. She’s able to cycle up a hill that changes her altitude by 400 m in 1min. a) How much work did she do against gravity in climbing the hill? b) How much power is she able to generate?

  48. Example: Two physics students, Jacob and Ryan are in the weight lifting room. It takes Jacob 3 sec to lift the 100 kg barbell over his head a distance of 0 .75 m. It takes Ryan 2 sec to lift the same barbell over his head a distance of 0.55 m. a) Which student does the most work? b) Which student delivers the most power?
