Work
• In physics, work is the magnitude of the force (F)
times the magnitude of the displacement (d) in
the same direction as the force.
• W = Fd
• What are the SI units for work?
– Force units (N)  distance units (m)

• How much work is 1 joule?
– Lift an apple weighing about 1 N from the floor to the
desk, a distance of about 1 m.

Conservation of Energy
• Acceleration does not have to be constant.
• ME is not conserved if friction is present.
– If friction is negligible, conservation of ME is
reasonably accurate.

• Consider a child going down a slide with friction.

energy).
