•An object that has energy can do work.
•Work is done when energy is transferred
from one object to another or changed
from one form to another.

WORK AND ENERGY
1. max PE
= max KE
2. Work = Energy
3. Work = PE gained = KE
Work = KE
Units:
Energy and Work = joules (J) = Newton-meter (Nm)
Mass = kilograms (kg)
Weight = newtons (N)
Gravity constant = 9.8m/sec/sec ~ 10 m/sec/sec
Velocity = m/s
Height = meters (m)
1km = 1000m
1kg= 1000g
1hr= 3,600sec

Weight and Mass
Weight is a measure of the
force of gravity on an object
Weight = Mass x acceleration

STEPS IN PROBLEM
SOLVING
 STEP 1. Write the formula
 STEP 2. Substitute given
numbers and units
 STEP 3. Solve for the
unknown.
EXAMPLE
What is the p.e. of a book of
mass 1200 g, resting on a shelf
2 m above the ground?
p.e. = mgh
p.e. = 1.2kg x 10m/s/s x 2m
p.e. = 12.0 N x 2 m
p.e. = 24 N-meter or Joules
SAMPLE PROBLEM:
A hiker weighing
680 N climbs 40 m
up a hill. Calculate
the gravitational
potential energy
gained at the top of
the climb.
Ep= wxh
Ep = 680 N x 40 m
= 27,200 N-m
or 27.2 KJ
Calculate the p.e. of a 40 kg iron
bar raised 1 m. (g = 10m/s/s)
identify the tricky part of this next Q:
2. Calculate the p.e. of a 65,000 g
boulder resting at 22 m above the
road.
Try this one:
3. How high is a .2 kg jar if it has 3J of
p.e.?
ANSWERS
1. Calculate the p.e. of a 40 kg iron
bar raised 1 m. 400 N-m or 400J
2. Calculate the p.e. of a 65,000 g
boulder resting at 22 m above
the road. 14,300 N-m or 14.3 KJ
3. How high is a .2 kg jar if it has 3J
of p.e.? 1.5 m
What is the Ek of an arrow
with a mass of 25 g
traveling at 25m/s?
What is the Ek of an arrow with a mass
of 25 gm traveling at 25m/s?
Answer:
k.e. = ½ mv2
= ½ x .025kg x (25m/s)2
= ½ x 0.025kg x 625m/s
= (0.5) 15.625
= 7.8125 Nm
but 1 Nm = 1J
= 7.8125 J
SUMMARY OF CONCEPTS: GPE = w x h or
GPE = mgh
•If h is doubled, the GPE is doubled.
If H is tripled, the GPE is also tripled.
•If speed (velocity) is doubled (2x), the Kinetic Energy
increases (4x or 22).
If speed (velocity) is tripled (3X), the KE increases 9x or 32.
• The GPE at the top changes to KE at the bottom.
KINETIC ENERGY
• The greater the speed the greater the
k.e. of the object
• The greater the mass of a moving
object, the greater the k.e. of the
object
POTENTIAL ENERGY
Ep or p.e. is the potential energy an
object has because of its height.
“The higher an object is lifted, the
greater its p.e.”
“The greater the mass of an object the
greater its p.e.”
the gain in p.e. = work done
Ep = W
Putting these formulae together:
Gain in Potential energy= work done lifting
Ep = W
= lifting force x distance lifted (height)
Ep = F x d (h)
= weight force x distance lifted
Ep = Fg x d (h)
(g = 10N/kg)
= mass of object x g x distance lifted
Ep = mgh
