  1. Chapter 5 Energy

  2. Forms of Energy • Mechanical • May be kinetic (associated with motion) or potential (associated with position) • Chemical • Electromagnetic • Nuclear

  3. Work - Energy and Force • F is the magnitude of the force • ∆x is the magnitude of the object’s displacement • q is the angle between

  4. Notes on Work • Gives no information about • time it took for the displacement to occur • the velocity or acceleration of the object • Work is a scalar quantity • Work done by a force is zero when force and displacement are perpendicular • cos 90° = 0 • For multiple forces, the total work done is the algebraic sum of the amount of work done by each force

  5. More Notes on Work • SI • Newton • meter = Joule • N • m = J = kg • m2 / s2 • US Customary • foot • pound • ft• lb • Work can be positive or negative • Positive if the force and the displacement are in the same direction • Negative if the force and the displacement are in the opposite direction

  6. Example of Sign for Work • Work is positive when lifting the box • Work would be negative if lowering the box • The force would still be upward, but the displacement would be downward

  7. Exmaple Problem • An eskimo pulls a sled of salmon. A force of 120 N is exerted on the sled via the rope to pull the sled 5 m • Find the work if q=0o • Find the work if q=30o • Does it seem odd that less work is required in the second case?!

  8. Work and Dissipative Forces • Work can be done by friction • The energy lost to friction by an object goes into heating both the object and its environment • Some energy may be converted into sound • For now, the phrase “Work done by friction” will denote the effect of the friction processes on mechanical energy alone

  9. Example 5.2, and a Lesson in Graphical Display • Consider the eskimo pulling the sled again. The loaded sled has a total mass of 50.0 kg • Find the net work done for the previous two cases • Consider the figure at right for the normalized net work as a function of m and q

  10. Kinetic Energy • Energy associated with the motion of an object: • Scalar quantity with the same units as work • Work-Kinetic Energy Theorem • Speed will increase if work is positive • Speed will decrease if work is negative

  11. Work and Kinetic Energy • An object’s kinetic energy can be likened to the work that could be done if object were brought to rest (so, the K.E. is like potential work content) • The moving hammer has kinetic energy and can do work on the nail

  12. Example Find the minimum stopping distance for a car traveling at 35.0 m/s (about 80 mph) with a mass of 1000 kg to avoid backending the SUV. Assume that braking is a constant frictional force of 8000 N.

  13. Types of Forces • There are two general classes of forces • Conservative • Work and energy associated with the force can be recovered • Nonconservative • The forces are generally dissipative and work done against it cannot easily be recovered

  14. Friction Depends on Path • The blue path is shorter than the red path • The work required is less on the blue path than on the red path • Friction depends on the path and so is a non-conservative force

  15. Potential Energy • Potential energy is associated with the position of the object within some system • Potential energy is a property of the system, not the object • A system is a collection of objects interacting via forces or processes that are internal to the system

  16. Work and Potential Energy • For every conservative force a potential energy (PE) function can be found • Evaluating the difference of the function at any two points in an object’s path gives the negative of the work done by the force between those two points:

  17. Work and Gravitational Potential Energy • PE = mgy

  18. Work-Energy Theorem, Extended • The work-energy theorem can be extended to include potential energy: • If other conservative forces are present, potential energy functions can be developed for them and their change in that potential energy added to the right side of the equation

  19. Conservation of Energy • Total mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic and potential energies in the system • Other types of potential energy functions can be added to modify this equation

  20. Quick Quiz Three balls are cast from the same point with the same speed, but different trajectories. Rank their speeds (from fast to slow) when they hit the ground.

  21. Example A grasshopper makes a leap as shown at right, and achieves a maximum height of 1.00 m. What was its initial speed vi?

  22. Non-Conservative Forces • This young woman (at m=60 kg) zips down a waterslide and is clocked at the bottom at 18.0 m/s. If conservative, she should have been moving at 20.7 m/s. • How much energy was lost to friction, both as an amount and as a percentage?

  23. Springs • Involves the spring constant, k • Hooke’s Law gives the force • F = - k x • F is the restoring force • F is in the opposite direction of x • k depends on how the spring was formed, the material it is made from, thickness of the wire, etc. • The force is conservative for “ideal” springs, so there is an associated PE function

  24. Spring Potential Energy • Elastic Potential Energy • related to the work required to compress a spring from its equilibrium position to some final, arbitrary, position x

  25. Work-Energy Theorem Including a Spring • Wnc = (KEf – KEi) + (PEgf – PEgi) + (PEsf – PEsi) • PEg is the gravitational potential energy • PEs is the elastic potential energy associated with a spring

  26. Classic Spring Problem A block has mass m = 0.500 kg. The spring has k = 625 N/m and is compressed 10 cm. • Find the distance d traveled if q = 30o. • How fast is the block moving at halfway up?

  27. Nonconservative Forces with Energy Considerations • When nonconservative forces are present, the total mechanical energy of the system is not constant • The work done by all nonconservative forces acting on parts of a system equals the change in the mechanical energy of the system

  28. Nonconservative Forces and Energy • In equation form: • The energy can either cross a boundary or the energy is transformed into a form of non-mechanical energy such as thermal energy (so the total energy is still conserved, just not the sum of KE and PE)

  29. kg • m2 Power - Energy Transfer • Often interested in the rate at which energy transfer takes place • Power is defined as this rate of energy transfer • SI units are Watts (W, but not “Work”)

  30. Center of Mass • The point in the body at which all the mass may be considered to be concentrated • When using mechanical energy, the change in potential energy is related to the change in height of the center of mass

  31. Work Done by Varying Forces • The work done by a variable force acting on an object that undergoes a displacement is equal to the area under the graph of F versus x

  32. Recall Spring Example • Spring is slowly stretched from 0 to xmax • W = 1/2 kx2

  33. Spring Energy • The work is also equal to the area under the curve • In this case, the “curve” is a triangle Area = 1/2 X Base X height gives W = 1/2 k x2
