  1. Unit 3 PhysicsEnergy

  2. Energy • The ability to do WORK… • Measured in JOULES (J)

  3. Law of Conservation of Energy • energy cannot be created or destroyed only transferred from one form to another Electric  Light Chemical  Mechanical

  4. 2 forms of mechanical energy 1. Kinetic energy (KE) -energy due to motion ex: anything moving KE = ½ mv2 (J) (kg)(m/s)2 (N) (m)

  5. Calculate KE A 1216kg car traveling at 10m/sec. KE = ½ mv2 m = 1216kg v = 10m/sec KE = ½ (1216kg)(10m/sec)2 KE = ½ (1216kg)(100(m/s)2 ) KE = 60,800J

  6. 2. Potential energy (PE) -energy due to position or condition ex: book high on a shelf stretched rubber band wound up clock -the only PE we calculate is gravitational potential PE = m g h (J) (kg)(m/s2)(m) (N) (m)

  7. Calculate PE m = g = 500N PE = m g h h = 100m PE = (500N) (100m) PE = 50,000J

  8. Energy 7 Types of Energy • 1. Light - energy traveling in waves • 2. Mechanical - energy of lifting, bending, etc… (work) • 3. Thermal - molecular motion

  9. 5. Nuclear – energy in atomic nuclei (holds protons & neutrons together) • 7. Chemical - energy stored in chemical bonds 4. Electrical – moving electrons 6. Sound - vibrations

  10. Work – Energy Theorem • All work is energy, but not all energy is work

  11. Work -transfer of energy through motion *Object must move in direction force applied!

  12. Work • Equation: W = Fd W = work F = force d = distance • Work is measured in Joules (J) J = N m *Joule is always (N)(m), never (N)(cm)!!

  13. A teacher pushed a 10kg desk across a floor for a distance of 5m. She exerted a horizontal force of 20N. How much work was done? F = 20N d = 5m W = Fd W = (20N)(5m) W = 100J

  14. A force of 10,000N is applied to a stationary wall. How much work performed on the wall? F = 10,000N d = 0m W = Fd W = (10,000N)(0m) W = 0J

  15. Check up: • Where does the pendulum have greatest PE? • Where does the pendulum have greatest KE? Greatest PE Greatest PE Greatest KE

  16. Check up: • Which of the 3 vehicles has the greatest KE? • Which car has the greatest KE?
