Section 4: Energy resources and energy transfer
c) Work and power
know and use the relationship between work, force and distance moved in the
direction of the force:
work done = force × distance moved W = F × d
understand that work done is equal to energy transferred
know and use the relationship:
gravitational potential energy = mass × g × height
GPE = m × g × h
know and use the relationship:
kinetic energy = ½ × mass × speed2 KE = ½ × m × v2
understand how conservation of energy produces a link between gravitational
potential energy, kinetic energy and work
describe power as the rate of transfer of energy or the rate of doing work
use the relationship between power, work done (energy transferred) and time
taken:
power = work done / time taken P = W / t
Work and energy
When a force causes a body to move through a distance,
energy is transferred and work is done.
work done = energy transferred.
Both work and energy are measured in joules (J).
Work and friction
Work done against frictional
forces is mainly transformed into
heat.
Rubbing hands together causes
them to become warm.
Brakes pads become hot if they
are applied for too long. In this
case some of the car’s energy
may also be transferred to sound
in the form of a ‘squeal’
The work equation
work done = force applied × distance moved in
the direction of
the force
W=Fxd
work, W is measured in joules (J)
force, F is measured in newtons (N)
distance, d is measured in metres (m)
also:
force = work done ÷ distance moved
and:
distance = work done ÷ force
W
F
d
Question 1
Calculate the work done when a force of 5N
moves through a distance of 3m.
W=Fxd
= 5N x 3m
work = 15 J
Question 2
Calculate the work done when a force of
6N moves through a distance of 40cm.
W=Fxd
= 6 N x 40 cm
= 6 N x 0.40 m
work = 2.4 J
Question 3
Calculate the value of the force required to
do 600J of work over a distance of 50m.
W=Fxd
becomes:
F=W÷d
= 600 J ÷ 50 m
force = 12 N
Question 4
Calculate the distance moved by a force of
8N when it does 72J of work.
W=Fxd
becomes:
d=W÷F
= 72 J ÷ 8 N
distance moved = 9 m
Question 5
Calculate the work done by
a child of weight 300N who
climbs up a set of stairs
consisting of 12 steps each
of height 20cm.
W=Fxd
The child must exert an
upward force equal to its
own weight.
Therefore: force = 300N
This force is exerted
upwards and so the
distance must also be
measured upwards.
= (12 x 20cm)
= 2.4m
therefore:
work = 300 N x 2.4 m
work = 720 J
Question 6
Calculate the work done by a person of mass 80kg who
climbs up a set of stairs consisting of 25 steps each of
height 10cm.
W=Fxd
the person must exert an upward force equal their weight
the person’s weight = (80kg x 10N/kg) = 800N
the distance moved upwards equals (10 x 25cm) = 2.5m
work = 800 N x 2.5 m
work = 2000 J

Gravitational potential energy
Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is the energy stored
in an object when work is done in moving the object
upwards.
GPE = mass x g x height
GPE = m x g x h
GPE is measured in joules (J)
mass, m is measured in kilograms (kg)
gravitational field strength, g is measured
in newtons per kilogram (N/kg)
height, h is measured in metres (m)
Question 1
Calculate GPE gained when
a weightlifter lifts a mass of
120kg up by 2.5m.
(g = 10N/kg)
GPE = m x g x h
= 120kg x 10N/kg x 2.5m
GPE = 3000 J
Question 2
Calculate the gravitational potential energy
gained by a student of mass 70kg climbing a
flight of stairs of height 4m.
GPE = m x g x h
= 70kg x 10N/kg x 4m
GPE = 2 800 J
Kinetic energy
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body
because of its speed and mass.
kinetic energy = ½ x mass x (speed)2
KE = ½ x m x v2
kinetic energy, KE is measured in joules (J)
mass, m is measured in kilograms (kg)
speed, v is measured in metres per second (m/s)
Question 1
Calculate the kinetic energy of a car of mass
1000kg moving at 5 m/s.
KE = ½ x m
= ½ x 1000kg
= ½ x 1000 x
= 500 x 25

Question 2
Calculate the kinetic energy of a child of mass
60kg moving at 3 m/s.
KE = ½ x m x v2
= ½ x 60kg x (3m/s)2
= ½ x 60 x 9
= 30 x 9
kinetic energy = 270 J
Question 3
Calculate the kinetic energy of a apple of mass
200g moving at 12m/s.
KE = ½ x m x v2
= ½ x 200g x (12m/s)2
= ½ x 0.200kg x 144
= 0.100 x 144
kinetic energy = 14.4 J
Question 4
Calculate the mass of a train if its kinetic
energy is 2MJ when it is travelling at 4m/s.
KE = ½ x m x v2
2MJ = ½ x mass x (4m/s)2
2 000 000J = ½ x mass x 16
2 000 000 = 8 x mass
2 000 000 ÷ 8 = mass
mass = 250 000 kg
Question 5
Calculate the speed of a car of mass 1200kg if its
kinetic energy is 15 000J.
KE = ½ x m x v2
15 000J = ½ x 1200kg x (speed)2
15 000 = 600 x (speed)2
15 000 ÷ 600 = (speed)2
25 = (speed)2
speed = 25
speed = 5 m/s
Question 6
Calculate the speed of a ball of mass 400g if its
kinetic energy is 20J.
KE = ½ x m x v2
20J = ½ x 400g x (speed)2
20 = ½ x 0.400kg x (speed)2
20 = 0.200 x (speed)2
20 ÷ 0.200 = (speed)2
100 = (speed)2
speed = 100
speed = 10 m/s

Question
A child of mass 40kg climbs a
wall of height 3m and then
steps off. Calculate the speed
at which the child reaches the
bottom of the wall.
Child’s initial gravitational
potential energy:
GPE = m x g x h
= 40kg x 10N/kg x 3m
GPE = 1 200 J
If air resistance is insignificant
then all of this GPE is converted
into kinetic energy
KE = ½ x m x v2
1200 J = ½ x 40kg x (speed)2
1 200 = 20 x (speed)2
1 200 ÷ 20 = (speed)2
60 = (speed)2
speed = 60
speed = 7.75 m/s
