Work and power and simple machines

• Work = force times distance

• W = F x d

• Power = work divided by time

• P = W / t

Page 42: TAKS Physics

Work and power and simple machines

• Work has NO time factor.

• If the same force is applied over the same distance, the same work is done even if it is done faster in one case.

• If work is done faster, more power is used. Power is how fast work is done.

Page 43: TAKS Physics

Work and power and simple machines

• Two basic types of machines:

• Lever type simple machines

• (levers, wheel and axles, pulleys) and

• Inclined plane type simple machines

• (inclined planes, wedges, and screws)

Page 44: TAKS Physics

Work and power and simple machines

• Simple machines may change direction of motion. (Like a pulley)

• A machine may also trade distance for force OR trade force for distance. (A machine CANNOT do both.)

• A machine CANNOT increase the WORK done.

Page 45: TAKS Physics

Work and power and simple machines

• A simple machine increases output force over a shorter distance by requiring the force you put in to be applied over a longer distance. (You trade distance for force.)

Page 46: TAKS Physics

Work and power and simple machines

• The mechanical advantage of a machine is force output divided by force input.

• It is greater than 1 if the machine puts out more force than you put in.

• It is less than 1 if the machine puts out less force than you put in.
