I. What is WORK?

• Energy applied to an object as a force, in which the object moves in the same direction as the applied force.

• Work ( W ) is measured in ( ), also called joules (J)

• 1 J of work = lifting a 1N apple to top of head.

What is the work when a force of 10 N pulls a 80 N box a distance of 5.0 m across the floor?

What is the work done if the same box is lifted 5 m upward?

II. What is Power?

• Rate at which work is done or energy is transformed.> work done in a given amount of time

• Power(P) is measured in ( ), also called watt (W)

• 1 W of power = lifting a 1N apple to top of head in 1 s

Lifting an elevator 18 m takes 100 kJ. If doing so takes 20s, what is the average power of the elevator during the process?

III. MACHINES

• Machines make work seem easier by changing...> SIZE of an input force> DIRECTION of the force> or both

*Multiplies the input force– creates larger output force over less distance

• Mechanical Advantage: A # that expresses how much a machine multiplies force or distance

IV. What is Energy

• Energy is...> the ability to do work> the ability to cause change

– All changes require energy

• Work (J) is the Transfer and/or Transformation of energy from one object to another

May 8, 2019

V. Mechanical or Not?

• Mechanical Energy> Energy able to do work directly

– Gravitational PE, Elastic PE, Visible KE

• Non-Mechanical Energy> Energy that cannot directly do

work.– Needs to be transformed

into a different form first. » Nuclear, Chemical ,

Electrical, Light, Heat

VI. Potential Energy Energy that is STORED

> has the potential to cause change or do work

• 4 Different Types> 1) Gravitational PE (GPE)

« stored energy due to height of object« GPE (J) = mass (kg) x gravity (m/s2) x height (m)

> 2) Elastic PE« energy stored when an object is not in its original

condition» ex: stretched rubber band, compressed ball

> 3) Chemical PE« energy stored in the bonds of a molecule

> 4) Nuclear PE« energy stored in the nucleus of an atom

A 70,000 g boulder is resting at the top of a 0.1 km cliff. What is the GPE of the boulder?

VII. Kinetic Energy> energy of a moving object which depends on...

– Mass– Speed (velocity)

• Kinetic Energy (J) = 1/2 x mass (kg) x v2 (m/s)– KE = 1/2mv2

• Faster an object moves, more KE it has = bigger crashes....> Same holds true for increasing mass

• 2 types of Kinetic Energy> 1) KE of "visible" objects in motion

> 2) KE of atoms/molecules in a substance
