EQ: How is mechanical energy conserved in regards to potential and kinetic energy? LO: We will understand that energy can take many forms but the total energy in a system is constant. CT: I will investigate and calculate the changes of different forms of energy. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. Energy is always changing from one kind to another. The total energy of an object never changes. Energy transformation on a falling object • An apple on a tree has gravitational potential energy due to the Earth pulling down on it. • The instant the apple comes loose from the tree, it accelerates due to gravity. Energy transformation on a falling object • As objects fall, they lose height and gravitational potential energy • Potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy as the velocity increases. Energy transformation on a falling object • If the potential energy is being converted into kinetic energy, then the mechanical energy of the apple doesn’t change as it falls. • The potential energy that the apple loses is gained back as kinetic energy. • The form of energy changes, but the total amount of energy remains the same. Energy transformation in projectile motion • Energy transformations also occur during projectile motion when an object moves in a curved path. • However, the mechanical energy of the ball remains constant as it rises and falls. Energy transformation in a swing • When you ride on a swing part of the fun is the feeling of almost falling as you drop from the highest point to the lowest point of the swing’s path. • Energy can change from one form to another, but the total amount of energy never changes. Check Point The total mechanical energy of an object is the ______. a. KE minus the PE of the object b. PE minus the KE of the object c. the initial KE plus the initial PE of the object d. KE plus the PE of the object at any instant during its motion e. final amount of KE and PE minus the initial amount of KE and PE Check Point If an object moves in such a manner as to conserve its total mechanical energy, then ______. a. the amount of kinetic energy remains the same throughout its motion b. the amount of potential energy remains the same throughout its motion c. the amount of both the kinetic and the potential energy remains the same throughout its motion d. the sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energy remains the same throughout its motion If the mass of the dude is 75 kg, complete the table.

You accidentally drop the apple, then manage to catch it just before it hits the ground. If the speed of the apple at that moment is 5.42 m/s, what is the kinetic energy of the apple? From what height did you drop it? When work is done on a pendulum, energy is stored first as potential energy, which is converted to kinetic energy, then back to potential energy and so on as the pendulum moves back and forth. The more work you do on the pendulum—that is, the greater the height to which you raise the bob from its resting position—the greater the kinetic energy of the bob at the bottom of the swing. Conservation of Energy Conservation of Mechanical Energy During a hurricane, a large tree limb, with a mass of 22.0 kg and at a height of 13.3 m above the ground, falls on a roof that is 6.0 m above the ground. A. Ignoring air resistance, find the kinetic energy of the limb when it reaches the roof. B. What is the speed of the limb when it reaches the roof? Conservation of Energy Conservation of Mechanical Energy (cont.) Step 1: Analyze and Sketch the Problem • Sketch the initial and final conditions. • Choose a reference level. Conservation of Energy Conservation of Mechanical Energy (cont.) • Draw a bar graph. Conservation of Energy Conservation of Mechanical Energy (cont.) Identify the known and unknown variables. Known: m = 22.0 kg g = 9.80 N/kg hlimb = 13.3 m vi = 0.0 m/s hroof = 6.0 m KEi = 0.0 J Unknown: GPEi = ? KEf = ? GPEf = ? vf = ? Conservation of Energy Step 2: Solve for the Unknown A. Set the reference level as the height of the roof. Solve for the initial height of the limb relative to the roof. h = hlimb – hroof Conservation of Energy Substitute hlimb = 13.3 m, hroof = 6.0 m h = 13.3 m – 6.0 m = 7.3 m Conservation of Energy Solve for the initial potential energy of the limbEarth system. GPEi = mgh Substitute m = 22.0 kg, g = 9.80 N/kg, h = 7.3 m PEi = (22.0 kg) (9.80 N/kg) (7.3 m) = 1.6×103 J Conservation of Energy Identify the initial kinetic energy of the limb. The tree limb is initially at rest. KEi = 0.0 J 1 SECTION 1.2 Conservation of Energy Identify the final potential energy of the system. h = 0.0 m at the roof. GPEf = 0.0 J 1 SECTION 1.2 Conservation of Energy Use the principle of conservation of mechanical energy to find the KEf. KEf + GPEf = KEi + GPEi Substitute KEi = 0.0 J, GPEi = 1.6 x 103 J and GPEi = 0.0 J. KEf = (0.0 J) + (1.6×103 J) – (0.0 J) = 1.6 x 103 J 1 SECTION 1.2 Conservation of Energy Conservation of Mechanical Energy (cont.) B. Solve for the speed of the limb.
