  1. Work and Power

  2. What is work? • Definition: energy transferred by a _____________ to move an object a _____________ (when both the force and the motion of the object are in the same direction.)

  3. Work or Not? • According to the scientific definition, what is work and what is not? • a teacher lecturing to her class • a mouse pushing a piece of cheese with its nose across the floor

  4. Work or Not? • According to the scientific definition, what is work and what is not? • a teacher lecturing to her class • a mouse pushing a piece of cheese with its nose across the floor

  5. Work or Not • Why?

  6. What’s work? • A scientist delivers a speech to an audience of his peers. • A body builder lifts 350 pounds above his head. • A mother carries her baby from room to room. • A father pushes a baby in a carriage. • A woman carries a 20 kg grocery bag to her car?

  7. What’s work? • A scientist delivers a speech to an audience of his peers. No • A body builder lifts 350 pounds above his head. Yes • A mother carries her baby from room to room. No • A father pushes a baby in a carriage. Yes • A woman carries a 20 km grocery bag to her car? No

  8. Formula for work Work = _________ x Distance • The unit of work is newton x meters • One ____________ is equal to one ______ • So, the unit of work is a __________ • J= 1 N x m = 1 kg x m2/s2

  9. W=FD Work = Force x Distance Calculate: If a man pushes a concrete block 10 meters with a force of 20 N, how much work has he done?

  10. W=FD Work = Force x Distance Calculate: If a man pushes a concrete block 10 meters with a force of 20 N, how much work has he done? 200 joules (W = 20N x 10m)

  11. Power • Power is the __________ at which work is done. • Power = Work*/Time or P= W/t • The unit of power is the watt. • 1 watt= ______________

  12. Work vs. Power • Work vs. Power

  13. Concept Check • 1. Describe the difference between work and power? • 2. How is work being done in the following situation • Powerlifting • Dropping your textbook • Doing a handstand • What is the unit for lightbulbs? Why is that unit used?

  14. Math Practice • 1. A crane use an average force of 5300 N to lift a girder 25 m. How much work does the crane do on the girder? • 2. Aylssa powerlifts Kyle over her head 1 m with a force of 250 N. How much work was done? • 3. While rowing in a race, John uses his arms to exert a force of 165 N per stroke while pulling the oar 0.800 m. How much work does he do in 30 strokes?

  15. Math Practice • 4. While rowing in a race, John does 3960 J of work on the oars in 60.0 s. What is his output in watts. • 5. Steve using a jack does 4320 J of work to lift a car 1.5 m in 100.0 s. What is the power output? • 6. Mr. Farrell walks up the stairs on his way to make copies. He weight 622 Newtonsand the stairs go 5.75 vertically. a. Calculate my output if I climb the stairs in 8.9s. b. What is I climb the stairs in 7.2 s?
