1. Chapter 6: Work and Energy • Work Energy  Work done by a constant force (scalar product)  Work done by a varying force (scalar product & integrals) • Kinetic Energy Work-Energy Theorem Work and Energy

2. Work and Energy

3. Work by a Baseball Pitcher A baseball pitcher is doing work on the ball as he exerts the force over a displacement. v1 = 0 v2 = 44 m/s Work and Energy

4. Work Done by a Constant Force (I) Work(W)  How effective is the force in moving a body ?  Both magnitude (F) and directions (q ) must be taken into account. W[Joule] = ( F cos q ) d Work and Energy

5. Work Done bya Constant Force (II) Example:Work done on the bag by the person..  Special case: W = 0 J a) WP = FP d cos ( 90o ) b) Wg = m g d cos ( 90o )  Nothing to do with the motion Work and Energy

6. Example 1A A 50.0-kg crate is pulled 40.0 m by a constant force exerted (FP = 100 N and q = 37.0o) by a person. A friction force Ff = 50.0 N is exerted to the crate. Determine the work done by each force acting on the crate. Work and Energy

7. Example 1A (cont’d) F.B.D. WP = FP d cos ( 37o ) Wf = Ff d cos ( 180o) Wg = m g d cos ( 90o) WN = FN d cos ( 90o) 180o d 90o Work and Energy

8. Example 1A (cont’d) WP = 3195 [J] Wf = -2000 [J] (< 0) Wg = 0 [J] WN = 0 [J] 180o Work and Energy

9. Example 1A (cont’d) Wnet = SWi = 1195[J] (> 0) • The body’s speed increases. Work and Energy

10. Work-Energy Theorem Wnet= Fnet d = ( m a ) d = m [ (v2 2 – v1 2 ) / 2d ] d = (1/2) m v2 2 – (1/2) m v1 2 = K2 – K1 Work and Energy

11. Example 2 A car traveling 60.0 km/h to can brake to a stop within a distance of 20.0 m. If the car is going twice as fast, 120 km/h, what is its stopping distance ? (a) (b) Work and Energy

12. Example 2 (cont’d) (1)Wnet = F d(a) cos 180o = - F d(a) = 0 – m v(a)2 / 2  - Fx (20.0 m) = -m (16.7 m/s)2 / 2 (2) Wnet = F d(b) cos 180o = - F d(b) = 0 – m v(b)2 / 2  - Fx (? m) = -m (33.3 m/s)2 / 2 (3)F & m are common. Thus, ? = 80.0 m Work and Energy

16. Spring Force (Hooke’s Law) FS Spring Force (Restoring Force): The spring exerts its force in the direction opposite the displacement. FP x > 0 Natural Length x < 0 FS(x) = - k x Work and Energy

19. Work Done bya Varying Force lb W = F||dl la Dl  0 Work and Energy

20. Example 1A A person pulls on the spring, stretching it 3.0 cm, which requires a maximum force of 75 N. How much work does the person do ? If, instead, the person compresses the spring 3.0 cm, how much work does the person do ? Work and Energy

21. Example 1A (cont’d) • (a) Find the spring constantk • k = Fmax / xmax • = (75 N) / (0.030 m) = 2.5 x 103 N/m • (b) Then, the work done by the person is • WP = (1/2) k xmax2 = 1.1 J • (c) x2 = 0.030 m WP = FP(x) d x = 1.1 J x1 = 0 Work and Energy

22. Example 1B A person pulls on the spring, stretching it 3.0 cm, which requires a maximum force of 75 N. How much work does the spring do ? If, instead, the person compresses the spring 3.0 cm, how much work does the spring do ? Work and Energy

23. Example 1B (cont’d) • (a) Find the spring constantk • k = Fmax / xmax • = (75 N) / (0.030 m) = 2.5 x 103 N/m • (b) Then, the work done by the spring is • (c) x2 = -0.030 m WS = -1.1 J x2 = -0.030 m WS = FS(x) d x = -1.1 J x1 = 0 Work and Energy

24. Example 2 A 1.50-kg block is pushed against a spring (k = 250 N/m), compressing it 0.200 m, and released. What will be the speed of the block when it separates from the spring at x = 0? Assume mk = 0.300. FS = - k x (i) F.B.D. first ! (ii) x < 0 Work and Energy

25. Example 2 (cont’d) (a) The work done by the spring is (b) Wf = - mkFN (x2 – x1) = -4.41 (0 + 0.200) (c) Wnet = WS+ Wf = 5.00 - 4.41 x 0.200 (d) Work-Energy Theorem: Wnet=K2 – K1  4.12 = (1/2) mv2 – 0  v = 2.34 m/s x2 = 0 m WS = FS(x) d x = +5.00 J x1 = -0.200 m Work and Energy
