Chapter 7 Energy The “money” of physics 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Primitive Economics Get paid Do your job 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Modern Economics Buy stuff Do your job Get paid Using money simplifies economics and accounting. 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Why Energy Helps Motion, in general, is hard to calculate. Using forces, momentum, acceleration, etc. gets complicated because they are all vectors (have magnitude & direction). Energy is not a vector; it’s just a number. Can predict motion by figuring out how much energy that motion will “cost.” 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Potential Energy (PE) Gravitational potential energy of an object is, (Potential Energy) = (Weight) x (Height) Think of potential energy as stored energy or energy “in the bank.” Metric unit of energy is Joules (same as for work). 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Sample Problem 6 kg What is potential energy at zero height? 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU 20 m What is the potential energy of a 6kg bowling ball at a height of 20 meters? Kinetic Energy (KE) Kinetic energy of an object is, (Kinetic Energy) = ½ x (Mass) x (Speed)2 Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. A stationary object has zero kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is related to momentum but concepts are not the same! 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Sample Problem 20 m What is the kinetic energy of a 6kg bowling ball, falling from a height of 20 meters, just as it reaches the ground? 6 kg 20 m/s 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU The Big Idea PE = 1200 J, KE = 0 J Energy is the “currency” of motion PE = 600 J, KE = 600 J 20 m 10 m 6 kg PE = 0 J, KE = 1200 J 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Conservation of Energy Conservation of mechanical energy is (Potential Energy) + (Kinetic Energy) stays constant during motion. Energy “bookkeeping” makes motion simple. 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Pendulum Energy exchange from PE to KE and back. Maximum Height Maximum Speed Can predict speed from height since PE+KE constant 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Maximum Height, again Note: Use this concept in lab experiment entitled “Projectiles” Demo: Don’t Flinch When pendulum returns, never hits you. 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Movie: Bowling Ball Pendulum 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Demo: Interrupted Pendulum By conservation of energy we know that the pendulum ball will never rise above its initial height. 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Demo: Bunny Bash www.bunnybash.org 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Demo: Bunny Bash Would the ball strike at a higher speed by falling straight down instead of swinging as a pendulum? No, by energy conservation the kinetic energy at impact only depends on the initial potential energy (on initial height). 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Demo: Bunny Bash The following year, we simplified the process. 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Demo: Ball Races Can predict ball speeds along the tracks. Ball on track B goes the same speed as ball on track A whenever the two balls are at the same height 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Demo: Blaster Balls How high does the ping-pong ball go? After collision the speed of ping-pong ball is 3x larger Ping pong ball Golf ball Speed after collision is 3 times larger so kinetic energy is 9 times greater. Ping-pong ball rises to 9 times its original height (9x original potential energy). 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Work Define work done on an object by a force as (Work) = (Force) X (Distance traveled) Force acting in direction of motion: Positive work. Force acting in opposite direction: Negative work. Force perpendicular to motion: Zero work 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Check Yourself Slaves pull a heavy load. Work done by slaves is positive, negative, or zero? Work done by friction force? Support Work done by the ground? 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Friction Pull LOAD Work & Energy When forces do work on an object, the work done equals the change in energy. (small force) X (LONG DISTANCE) (BIG FORCE) X (short distance) Two persons do the same work in different ways. 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Jumping How high you jump depends on the force and on the distance over which you apply that force This is because the work done, (Force)x(distance), equals the energy gained. 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Can only push while in contact with the ground so squatting helps by increasing distance. Check Yourself Compared with going 30 mph, a car going 60 mph has ____ times the kinetic energy. Four times the KE means ____ times the work required to stop the car. Four times the work means ____ times the distance (same friction force on brakes). 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU Stopping & Braking Distance 55’ 35’ 30 mph 90’ Reaction Distance Braking Distance Stopping Distance 45 mph 70’ 60 mph 220’ At twice the speed, braking distance is four times longer 2-May-17 Physics 1 (Garcia) SJSU 290’
