Work
A. Definition
In science, the word work has a different meaning than you may be familiar
with.
The scientific definition of work is: using a force to displace an object (when
both the force and the motion of the object are in the same direction.)
Work can only be done to a
system by an external force;
a force from something that
is not a part of the system.
So if our system is a plane on
an aircraft carrier and we come
along and push the plane, we
can increase the energy of the
plane…
We are essentially doing work
on the plane.
B. Calculating Work
The amount of work done on an object can be expressed by the
given by the equation:
𝑊 = 𝐹 ∙ ∆𝑥 = 𝐹 ∙ ∆𝑥 ∙ 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝜃
Here θ is the angle between force 𝐹 and displacement ∆𝑥 .
Meaning, work is the product of the force applied which moves the
object a parallel displacement ( we will use “d” for the displacement)
W = Fdparallel
There are some important points to
understand about this equation.
Work
If the object that is experiencing the force does not move
(if d = 0) then no work is done.
parallel
Negative Work
If the object moves in the direction opposite the direction of the force (for instance if force and
displacement are in opposite directions)
then the work is negative: W < 0.
This can happen when a force is applied to slow and object down.
Direction of motion
F

Displacement
Positive Work
If the object moves in the same direction as the direction of the force
(for instance if force and displacement are in the same direction)
then the work is positive: W > 0.
This happens when you push an object to the right to move it rightward.
F
mass
Displacement
If there are several forces acting on an object,
The total work done by all these forces can be
calculated as:
𝑊𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 =𝑊𝐹1 +𝑊𝐹2 + 𝑊𝐹3 +…….
𝑊𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 =𝑊𝑛𝑒𝑡 𝐹𝑜𝑟𝑐𝑒
Units of Work and Energy
W =Fd𝒄𝒐𝒔𝜽= Fd
parallel
This equation gives us the units of work. Since force is measured in Newtons (N) and
displacement is measured in meters (m) the unit of work is the Newton-meter (N-m).And
since N = kg-m/s ; a N-m also equals a kg-m /s .

2. Energy
A. Definition
It turns out that energy is so fundamental, like space and time, that there is no good
answer to this question. However, just like space and time, that doesn't stop us from
doing very useful calculations with energy.
Energy is defined as the ability to do work.
We may not be able to define energy, but because it is a conserved property of
nature, it's a very useful idea.

4.2. Elastic Potential Energy
Energy can be stored in a spring, this energy is called
Elastic Potential Energy.
Robert Hooke first observed the relationship between the
force necessary to compress a spring and how much the
spring was compressed.
Hooke's Law
Fspring = -kx
k represents the spring constant and is measured in N/m.
x represents how much the spring is compressed and is
measured as you would expect, in meters.
The - sign tells us that this is a restorative force.
(if you let the spring go once it is compressed, it
will go back to its original position)
Elastic Potential Energy
The energy imparted to the spring by this work must be stored
in the Elastic Potential Energy (EPE) of the spring:
EPE = ½ k x
2
Like all forms of energy, it is measured in Joules (J).
Determine the elastic potential energy stored in a spring whose spring
constant is 250 N/m and which is compressed 8 cm.

5. Power
𝑾
𝑷=
𝒕
Average power = Work/Time
Power is the rate at which work is done:
units: 1 J/s =1 watt (W)
Since work is measured in Joules
(J) and time is measured in
seconds (s) the unit of power is
Joules per second (J/s).
However, in honor of James Watt,
who made critical contributions in
developing efficient steam engines,
the unit of power is also know as a
Watt (W).
B. Calculating
Since W = Fd
parallel
Regrouping this becomes
Since v = d/t
So power can be defined as the product of the force
applied and the velocity of the object parallel to that force.

6. Transformation and Conservation Principles
The most powerful concepts in science are called "conservation principles". These
principles allow us to solve problems without worrying too much about the details of a
process.
Conservation Principles
A good example is a bag of candy.
If you know that there are 50 pieces of candy at the beginning of the day and
you know that none of the pieces have been taken out or added...you know that
there must be 50 pieces at the end of the day.
Conservation Principles
Perhaps during the day you changed the way you arrange them by moving them
around...but you still will have 50 pieces. In that case we would say that the number of
pieces of candy is conserved.
That is, we should always get the same amount, regardless of how they are arranged.
The same amount exists before and after you moved them around.
Conservation Principles
We also have to be clear about the system that we're talking about. If we're
talking about a specific type of candy...we can't suddenly start talking about a
different one and expect to get the same answers.
We must define the “system” whenever
we use a conservation principle.
Conservation of Energy
Energy is a conserved property of
nature. It is not created or destroyed.
Therefore in a closed system we will
always have the same amount of
energy.
The only way the energy of a system
can change is if it is open to the
outside...this means that energy has
been added or taken away.
7. Conservation of Energy
• Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It
can only change from form to form.
• Mechanical Energy, PE and KE
• Conservation of Mechanical Energy
PE1 + KE1 = PE2 + KE2

7.1: Conservative and Nonconservative
Forces
The gravitational force has an interesting property that when an object is moved
from one place to another, the work done by the gravitational force does not
depend on the choice of path.
Forces like these are called conservative forces.
Definition Of A Conservative Force
A force is conservative when the work it does on a moving object is independent of
the path between the object's initial and final positions.
Definition Of A nonconservative
Force
A force is nonconservative when the work it does on a moving object is dependent of
the path between the object's initial and final positions.
Examples
Conservative Forces
Gravitational force (Ch. 4)
Elastic spring force (Ch. 10)
Electric force (Ch. 18, 19)
Nonconservative Forces
Static and kinetic frictional forces
Air resistance
Tension
Normal force
Propulsion force of a rocket
7.2 The Conservation of Mechanical
Energy
THE PRINCIPLE OF
CONSERVATION OF MECHANICAL
ENERGY
The total mechanical energy (E = KE + PE) of an object
remains constant as the object moves, provided that
the net work done by external nonconservative forces
is zero.
Conservation of Mechanical Energy
If friction and wind resistance are ignored, a bobsled run illustrates
how kinetic and potential energy can be interconverted, while the
total mechanical energy remains constant.
A Daredevil Motorcyclist
A motorcyclist is trying to leap across the canyon shown in Figure 6.18
by driving horizontally off the cliff at a speed of 38.0 m/s. Ignoring air
resistance, find the speed with which the cycle strikes the ground on
the other side.
Roller Coaster (Ideal)
The tallest and fastest roller coaster in the world is now
the Steel Dragon in Mie, Japan (Figure 6.20). The ride
includes a vertical drop of 93.5 m. The coaster has a
speed of 3.0 m/s at the top of the drop. Neglect friction
and find the speed of the riders at the bottom.
6.6 Nonconservative Forces and
the Work–Energy Theorem
In the roller coaster example, we ignored nonconservative
forces, such as friction. In reality, however, such forces are
present when the roller coaster descends. The actual
speed of the riders at the bottom is 41.0 m/s. Assuming
again that the coaster has a speed of 3.0 m/s at the top,
find the work done by nonconservative forces on a 55.0-kg
rider during the descent.
