Ex. Satellite Motion and Work By the Gravity
A satellite is moving about the earth in a
circular orbit and an elliptical orbit. For
these two orbits, determine whether the
kinetic energy of the satellite changes
during the motion.
For a circular orbit No change! Why not?
Gravitational force is the only external
force but it is perpendicular to the
displacement. So no work.
For an elliptical orbit Changes! Why?
Gravitational force is the only external
force but its angle with respect to the
displacement varies. So it performs work.

Work and Energy Involving Kinetic Friction
• What do you think the work looks like if there is friction?
– Static friction does not matter! Why? It isn’t there when the object is moving.
– Then which friction matters? Kinetic Friction

Friction force Ffr works on the object to slow down
The work on the object by the friction Ffr is
 

The negative sign means that the work is done on the friction!!
The final kinetic energy of an object, taking into account its initial kinetic
energy, friction force and other source of work, is

Ex. Downhill Skiing
A 58kg skier is coasting down a 25o
slope. A kinetic frictional force of
magnitude fk=70N opposes her motion.
At the top of the slope, the skier’s
speed is v0=3.6m/s. Ignoring air
resistance, determine the speed vf at
the point that is displaced 57m downhill.
What are the forces in this motion?
Gravitational force: Fg Normal force: FN

Potential Energy
Energy associated with a system of objects  Stored energy which has the
potential or the possibility to work or to convert to kinetic energy
What does this mean?
In order to describe potential energy, U,
a system must be defined.
The concept of potential energy can only be used under the
special class of forces called the conservative force which
results in the principle of conservation of mechanical energy.
EM  KEi  PEi  KE f  PE f
What are other forms of energies in the universe?
Mechanical Energy
Chemical Energy
Biological Energy
Electromagnetic Energy
Nuclear Energy
Thermal Energy
These different types of energies are stored in the universe in many different forms!!!
If one takes into account ALL forms of energy, the total energy in the entire

Gravitational Potential Energy
This potential energy is given to an object by the gravitational field in the
system of Earth by virtue of the object’s height from an arbitrary zero level
When an object is falling, the gravitational force, Mg, performs the work
on the object, increasing the object’s kinetic energy. So the potential energy
of an object at a height y,the potential to do work, is expressed as

is the negative change of the system’s potential energy

Example for Potential Energy
A bowler drops bowling ball of mass 7kg on his toe. Choosing the floor level as y=0, estimate
the total work done on the ball by the gravitational force as the ball falls on the toe.
Let’s assume the top of the toe is 0.03m from the floor and the hand
was 0.5m above the floor.
U i  mgyi  7  9.8  0.5  34.3J U f  mgy f  7  9.8  0.03  2.06J

b) Perform the same calculation using the top of the bowler’s head as the origin.
What has to change?
First we must re-compute the positions of the ball in his hand and on his toe.
Assuming the bowler’s height is 1.8m, the ball’s original position is –1.3m, and the toe is at –1.77m.
