What do you think?What do you think?
List five examples of things you have done List five examples of things you have done in the last year that you would consider in the last year that you would consider workwork..
Based on these examples, how do you Based on these examples, how do you define work?define work?
WorkWork In physics, work is the magnitude of In physics, work is the magnitude of
the force (the force (F) F) times the magnitude of times the magnitude of the displacement (the displacement (dd) ) in the same in the same direction as the force.direction as the force.

Answer: Work = Fd
(20 N) x (10 m) = 200 Nxm
Question 2Question 2
No work on it. Why?!
How much work is done carrying a 10 kg bag a distance of 10 meters?
Work only depends on Force that is in the same direction as the movement!!!

What is the component of What is the component of FF in the direction of in the direction of dd??• FF cos cos
If the angle is 90°, what is the If the angle is 90°, what is the component of component of FF in the direction in the direction of of dd??• FF cos 90° = 0 cos 90° = 0
If the angle is 0°, what is the If the angle is 0°, what is the component of component of FF in the direction in the direction of of dd??• FF cos 0° = cos 0° = FF
How would you calculate the work in this case?

Work Done by a Constant ForceWork Done by a Constant Force
Work done by forces that oppose the direction of motion, such as friction, will be negative.
Centripetal forcesCentripetal forces do no work, because they are always perpendicularperpendicular to the direction of motion.
How muHow much work is done by friction if the vacuum is 25 kg andthe kinetic coefficient of friction is .4 when the vacuum is draggedacross a rug 4 m?

• Energy is traditionally defined as the ability to do work.
• Energy appears in many forms. Light, Electricity, Nuclear Energy, Heat, and Mechanical Energy are all examples.
• Mechanical Energy is energy due to position or movement.
2 Types of Mechanical Energy2 Types of Mechanical Energy
Kinetic Energy – Energy due to MotionEnergy due to Motion
Any moving object has the ability to do work Any moving object has the ability to do work on another object. Therefore every moving on another object. Therefore every moving object has Kinetic Energy.object has Kinetic Energy.
M = mass
V2= velocity squared
2 Types of Mechanical Energy2 Types of Mechanical EnergyPotential EnergyPotential Energy - energy due to position.
Any object can have potential energy due to its position or because of its surroundings.
Familiar examples of potential energy:Familiar examples of potential energy:
• A wound-up spring
• A stretched elastic band
• An object raised to some height over the ground

• W = Fd = (mg)hW = Fd = (mg)h
• By doing work on the object, By doing work on the object, we have given it energy.we have given it energy.
• We therefore define the We therefore define the gravitational potential energygravitational potential energy::
P.E. = mghP.E. = mgh
m: massm: mass g: 9.8 g: 9.8 m/sm/s22 h: heighth: height
Potential EnergyPotential EnergyThis potential energy can become kinetic energy if the object is dropped.
Potential energy is a property of a system as a whole, not just of the object (because it depends on external forces).
We usually measure h from the ground. So at the ground, h = 0, which means the P. E. is zero.

Potential energy can also be stored in a spring Potential energy can also be stored in a spring when it is compressed; the figure below shows when it is compressed; the figure below shows potential energy changing into kinetic energy.potential energy changing into kinetic energy.

Units for work and energy: joules (j) Units for work and energy: joules (j)
Kinetic Energy, and the Work-Kinetic Energy, and the Work-Energy PrincipleEnergy Principle
The amount of work that can be done on an object, is equal to the amount of kinetic energy or potential energy it gains or loses:
• If the net work is positive, energy increases.
• If the net work is negative, energy decreases.
Work = change in energyWork = change in energy
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.
Mechanical Energy and Its Mechanical Energy and Its ConservationConservation
Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only transfer from one form to another or be passed from one object into another.
This is the Law of conservation of This is the Law of conservation of energy.energy.

•Work is done whenever energy is transferred from one object to another.
•Work is also done whenever energy changes forms.
•Accounting for all forms of energy, we find that the total energy neither increases nor decreases. Energy as a whole is conserved.
