Goals for Chapter 7
– To study gravitational and elastic potential energy
– To determine when total mechanical energy is
conserved
– To examine situations when total mechanical energy is
not conserved
– To examine conservative forces, nonconservative
forces, and the law of energy conservation
– To determine force from potential energy
7.1 gravitational potential energy
• Energy associated with
position is called potential
energy. This kind of energy
is a measure of the
potential or possibility for
work to be done.
• The potential energy
associated with a body’s
weight and its height above
the ground is called
gravitational potential
energy.
When a body moves downward,
gravity does positive work, kinetic
energy increases and gravitational
potential energy decreases.
When a body moves upward,
gravity does negative work. Kinetic
energy decreases and gravitational
potential energy increases
Gravitational potential energy
• The product of the weight mg and the height y above the origin of
coordinates, is called the gravitational potential energy, Ugrav:
Ugrav = mgy
Wgrav = mg(y1 – y2) = Ugrav,1 – Ugrav,2 = - (Ugrav,2 – Ugrav,1 ) = -∆Ugrav
-
Wgrav = ∆Ugrav
The negative sign in front of ∆Ugrav is essential.
Conservation of mechanical energy (gravitational forces only)
• When the body’s weight is the only force acting on it while it
moves either up or down, say from y1 (v1) to y2 (v2),
Fnet = W = mg.
• According to work-energy theorem, the total work done on the
body equals the change in the body’s kinetic energy:
• Wtot = ∆K = K2 –K1
Wtot = Wgrav = -∆Ugrav = Ugrav,1 – Ugrav,2
K2 –K1 = Ugrav,1 – Ugrav,2
K2 + Ugrav,2 = K1 + Ugrav,1
(if only gravity does work)
•
Or
½ mv12 + mgy1 = ½ mv22 + mgy2
K2 + Ugrav,2 = K1 + Ugrav,1
(if only gravity does work)
• The sum K + Ugrav is called E, the total mechanical energy of
the system.
• “system” means the body of mass m and the earth.
When only the force of gravity does work, the total
mechanical energy is constant – or conserved.
CAUTION
• Gravitational potential energy is relative, you can choose any
height as your zero point.
• Gravitational potential energy Ugrav = mgy is a shared
property between Earth and the object.
Example 7.1 Height of a baseball from energy conservation
• You throw a 0.145 kg baseball straight up in the air, giving it an
initial upward velocity of magnitude 20.0 m/s. find how high it
goes, ignoring air resistance.
20.4 m
• Notice how
velocity changes
as forms of
energy
interchange.

E represents total mechanical energy
•
When Wother is positive, E increases, and K2 + Ugrav,2
is greater than K1 + Ugrav,1.
•
When Wother is negative, E decreases.
•
In the special case in which no forces other than the
body’s weight do work, Wother = 0, the total
mechanical energy is then constant,

Two stones, one of mass m and the other of mass 2m, are
thrown directly upward with the same velocity at the same
time from ground level and feel no air resistance. Which
statement about these stones is true?
Both stones will reach the same height because they initially
had the same amount of kinetic energy.
The lighter stone will reach its maximum height sooner than
the heavier one.
The heavier stone will go twice as high as the lighter one
because it initially had twice as much kinetic energy.
At their highest point, both stones will have the same
gravitational potential energy because they reach the same
height.
At its highest point, the heavier stone will have twice as much
gravitational potential energy as the lighter one because it is
twice as heavy.

Example 7.2 Work and energy in throwing a baseball
In example 7.1, suppose
your hand moves up 0.50 m
while you are throwing the
ball, which leaves your
hand with an upward
velocity of 20.0 m/s. Again
ignore air resistance.
a. Assuming that your hand
exerts a constant upward
force on the ball, find the
magnitude of that force.
b. Find the speed of the
ball at a point 15.0 m
above the point where it
leaves your hand.
Work and energy along a curved path
To find the work done by the
gravitational force along a curved
path, we divide the path into small
segments ∆s;
The work done by the gravitational
force over this segment is the scalar
product of the force and the
displacement. In terms of unit
vectors, the force is w = mg = -mgj
and the displacement is ∆s = ∆xi +
∆yj, so the work done by the
gravitational force is:
 
w  s  mgˆj  (xiˆ  yˆj )  mgy
• The work done by gravity is the same as though the
body had been displaced vertically a distance ∆y,
with no horizontal displacement. This is true for
every segment:
So even if the path a body follows
between two points is curved, the
total work done by the
gravitational force depends only
on the difference in height
between the two points of the
path.
Conceptual Example 7.3 Energy in projectile motion
• A batter hits two identical baseballs with the same initial speed
and height but different initial angles. Prove that at a given
height h, both balls have the same speed if air resistance can be
neglected.
At all points at the same height the potential energy is the
same, thus the kinetic energy at this height must be the
same for both ball, and the speeds must be the same too.
Example 7.4 Calculating speed along a vertical circle
Steve skateboards down a curved ramp. If we treat Steve and
his skateboard as a particle, he moves through a quarter-circle
with radius R = 3.00 m. The total mass of Steve and his
skateboard is 25.0 kg. He starts from rest and there is no
friction.

b. Find the normal force that acts on him at the bottom of the
curve.

ramp is not
frictionless and that
Steve’s speed at the
bottom is only 6.00

on him?

Example 7.6 The energy of a crate on an inclined plane
• We want to load a 12 kg crate
into a truck by sliding it up a
ramp 2.5 m long, inclined at 30o.
A worker, giving no thought to
friction, calculates that he can
get the crate up the ramp by
giving it an initial speed of 5.0
m/s at the bottom and letting it
go. But friction is not negligible;
the crate slides 1.6 m up the
ramp, stops, and slides back
down.
a. Assuming the friction force
acting on the crate is constant,
find its magnitude.
b. How fast is the crate moving
when it reaches the bottom of
the ramp?
a. 35 N
b. 2.5 m/s

• Elastic potential energy
Uel = ½ kx2
Wel = - ∆Uel
The zero energy point is defined as when the

Work-energy theorem
• The work-energy theorem says that Wtot = K2 – K1, no matter
what kind of forces are acting on a body.
Wgrav  Wel  Wother  K 2  K1
U grav,1  U grav, 2  U el ,1  U el , 2  Wother  K 2  K1

• This equation is the most general statement of the
relationship among kinetic energy, potential energy, and work
done by other forces.
• The work done by all forces other than the gravitational
force or elastic force equals the change in the total
mechanical energy E = K + U of the system, where U = Ugrav
+Uel is the sum of the gravitational potential energy and the
elastic potential energy.

• The “system” is made up of the body of mass m, the
earth with which it interacts through the gravitational
force, and the spring of force constant k.
• Bungee jumping is an example of
transformations among kinetic
energy, elastic potential energy,
and gravitational potential
energy.
• As the jumper falls, gravitational
potential energy decreases and
is converted into the kinetic
energy of the jumper and the
elastic potential energy of the
bungee cord. Beyond a certain
point in the fall, the jumper’s
speed decreases so that both
gravitational potential energy
and kinetic energy are converted
into elastic potential energy.
Example 7.7 Motion with elastic potential energy
A glider with mass m = 0.200 kg sits on a frictionless horizontal
air track, connected to a spring with force constant k = 5.00
N/m. You pull on the glider, stretching the spring 0.100 m, and
then release it with no initial velocity. The glider begin to move
back toward it equilibrium position (x = 0). What is its x-velocity
when x = 0.080 m?
 0.30m/ s
For the system of Example 7.7, suppose the glider is initially at
rest at x = 0, with the spring un-stretched. You then apply a
constant force F in the + x direction with magnitude 0.610 N to
the glider. What is the glider’s velocity when it has moved to x =
0.100 m?
0.60m/ s
In a “worst-case” design scenario, a 2000 kg elevator with
broken cables is falling at 400 m/s when it first contacts a
cushioning spring at the bottom of the shaft. The spring is
supposed to stop the elevator, compressing 2.00 m as it does
so. During the motion a safety clamp applies a constant 17,000
N frictional force to the elevator. As a design consultant, your
are asked to determine what the force constant of the spring
should be.

the elevator is still moving downward and the spring is
compress by 1.00 m. which of the energy bar graphs in
the figure most accurately shows the kinetic energy K,
gravitational potential energy Ugrav, and elastic potential
energy Uel at this instant?
When a force acting on an object, the object’s total energy
does not change, only the form of energy changes, such as
change from kinetic to potential and vise versa. Such force is
called conservative force. Conservative forces have four
properties:
1. It can be expressed as the difference between the initial and
final values of a potential-energy function.
2. It is reversible.
3. It is independent of the path of the body and depends only on
the starting and ending points.
4. When the starting and ending points are the same, the total
work is zero.
• Examples of conservative forces: gravity, force from a spring
• When the only forces that do work are conservative forces,
the total mechanical energy E = K + U is constant.
Conservative forces
• The work by a conservative force like gravity does
not depend on the path your hiking team chooses,
only how high you climb.

Non-conservative forces
When a force acting on an object, the object’s total energy
changes. Such force is called non conservative force.
When non-conservative force does work, the energy is not
reversible.
Some non conservative forces, like kinetic friction or fluid
resistance, cause mechanical energy to be lost or
dissipated; a force of this kind is called a dissipative force.
There are also non conservative forces that increase
mechanical energy. The fragments of an exploding
firecracker fly off with very large kinetic energy. The forces
unleashed by the chemical reaction of gunpowder with
oxygen are non conservative because the process is not
reversible.
Example 7.10 Frictional work depends on the path
You are rearranging your furniture and wish to move a 40.0 kg futon 2.50
m across the room. However, the straight-line path is blocked by a heavy
coffee table that you don’t want to move. Instead, you slide the futon in a
dogleg path over the floor, the doglegs are 2.00 m and 1.50 m long.
Compared to the straight-line path, how much more work must you do to
push the futon is the dogleg path? The coefficient of kinetic friction is
0.200.

• Lets consider a glider with
mass m that moves along
the x-axis on an air track. In
this case Fx = -kx; U(x) = ½

spring is the only horizontal
force acting on the glider, the
total mechanical energy E =

independent of x.

• Refer the potential energy function and its corresponding components of force.
The direction of the force on
a body is not determined by
the sign of the potential
energy U. rather, it’s the sign
of Fx = -dU/dx that matters.
The physically significant
quantity is the difference is
the value of U between two
points, which is just what the
derivative
Fx = -dU/dx
measures. This means that
you can always add a
constant to the potential
energy function without
changing the physics of the
situation.
