Work and Force Go Together Too
Let work be defined as
work = force × displacement

Work Done by a Constant Force
In the SI system, the units of work are joules:
A complication: As long as this person does not lift or lower the bag of groceries, he is doing no work on it. The force he exerts has no component in the direction of motion.
![Page 4: Work, Power, Energy and Motion](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568159f0550346895dc73902/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Work Done by a Constant Force
The work done by a constant force is defined as the distance moved multiplied by the component of the force in the direction of displacement:
W = Fx cos θ

Work on a spring
Work can also be done on a spring when it is compressed or stretched; the figure below shows work yielding kinetic energy.

Work on a spring
The force required to compress or stretch a spring is:
where k is called the spring constant, and needs to be measured for each spring.
W = ½ kx2

1) yes
2) no
Consider the book on your car seat. If you accelerate slowly the book does not slide on the seat but stays stationary with respect to the car. Friction is causing the book to move along with the car and hence force and displacement are in the same direction. Work is positive.

Power
Power is the rate at which work is done. It can be thought of as work per second.
Power = Work / sec.
Power = Work / time
P = W / t
Question: Can you name 2 units for power?
![Page 17: Work, Power, Energy and Motion](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568159f0550346895dc73902/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Power
Power has the same trade-offs as work. A motor produces the same amount of power.
So, you can make a robot that’s fast, but weak.
Or you can make a robot that’s slow, but strong.
P = Fv
The total power in must equal the total power out (with an exception)...

Kinetic Energy and the Work-Energy Principle
Because work and kinetic energy can be equated, they must have the same units: kinetic energy is measured in joules.
![Page 19: Work, Power, Energy and Motion](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568159f0550346895dc73902/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Kinetic Energy, and the Work-Energy Principle
Energy is defined as the ability to do work.
Mechanical energy is the energy associated with motion, i.e. masses which move. Sometimes the motion is ongoing (non-zero velocity) and sometimes it just involves a change of position (motion occurred between time t0 and t1).
![Page 20: Work, Power, Energy and Motion](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568159f0550346895dc73902/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Kinetic Energy
Defined:
Let work be defined as work = force × displacementKinetic energy must = work.

Kinetic Energy, and the Work-Energy Principle
If we write the acceleration in terms of the velocity and the distance, we define that the work done here is

Kinetic Energy, and the Work-Energy Principle
We define the work done to be equal to the change in the kinetic energy:
• If the net work is positive, the kinetic energy increases.
• If the net work is negative, the kinetic energy decreases.
CHAPTER 11 # 5, 17, 36, 38 & 41
Here’s why work and kinetic energy go together:

Consider the work done by gravity to make the stone fall distance d:
DKE = Wnet = F d cosθ
DKE = mg d
Thus, the stone with the greater massgreater mass has the greater KEgreater KE, which is
twicetwice as big for the heavy stone.

Concept Question
Is it possible for the kinetic
energy of an object to be
negative?
1) No.
2) Yes.
3) Maybe.
![Page 26: Work, Power, Energy and Motion](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062323/568159f0550346895dc73902/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Concept Question
Is it possible for the kinetic
energy of an object to be
negative?
1) No.
2) Yes.
3) Maybe.
In Newtonian mechanics, the answer is no. The kinetic energy is always positive since the velocity squared and the mass are always positive.
Curiously, in quantum mechanics and relativity there are no such constraints. We believe it to still be true, but we are open to the possibility that it may not.
