Energy
LT 1
I can define
energy
• The ability to do work or
cause change
• Can be transferred into
other forms (energy flow)
• Is conserved (can neither
be created nor
destroyed)
• SI Unit is Joules
• Anything with energy can
produce a force that is
capable acting over a
distance
• Force times distance the
force is applied (W = Fd)
Work
• When work is done, energy

used (a change occurs)
• SI Unit is Joules
• Work is done by forces
• The object must move for
work to be done
Power
LT 5
I can define
power and its
relationship to
energy.
• The rate at which energy
is transferred or work is
done (work per second)
• SI Unit is Watts
(Joules/second)
• The faster the energy is
used, the greater the
power
• More powerful if
– more work is done in
same time
– same work is done in less
time
Work
LT 3
I can identify the
difference
between positive
and negative
work.
• Positive work is work done
by a force acting in the
direction of the
displacement (or motion).
(example: force applied
by engine to wheels of a car)
• Negative work is work done
by force acting in the
opposite direction of the
displacement (or motion)
(example: Friction)
Work
LT 3
I can identify the
difference
between positive
and negative
work.
• Another way of looking at
this…
• Positive work adds energy
to the system
• Negative work takes away
energy from the system

9.1 Work
= force × distance
Did the weightlifter do work on the barbell and
weights?
•Yes, when he first lifted them above his head.
Is the weightlifter currently doing work on the
barbell and weights?
No, the barbell and weights are not moving.
•Explain two ways that the work done by the
weightlifter might be increased.
1) Increase the weight on the ends of the barbell
2) Increase the distance over which the weightlifter
pushes the barbell and weights.
9.1 Work
While the weight lifter is holding a
barbell over his head, he may get
really tired, but he does no work on
the barbell.
Work may be done on the muscles
by stretching and squeezing them,
but this work is not done on the
barbell.
When the weight lifter raises the
barbell, he is doing work on it.
9.1 Work
Work has the same units as energy
Joules
Newton x meter
J

•One joule (J) of work is done when a
force of 1 N is exerted over a distance
of 1 m (lifting an apple over your
head).

9.2 Power
Jet engine vs. lawn mower engine
Both receive ½ gallon of fuel (same energy, same
work)
•A high-power jet engine does work rapidly, uses ½ gallon in 1
second.
•The low-powered lawn mower engine does work slowly, using ½
gallon in 30 minutes.
vs.
9.2 Power
P = w/t
Power is the rate at which work is done.
The unit of power is the joule per second, also known as
the watt.
One watt (W) of power is expended when one joule of
work is done in one second.
One kilowatt (kW) equals 1000 watts.
One megawatt (MW) equals one million watts.
Power
• When you run 3 km rather than
walk, you use the energy more
quickly because your body
demands more energy per unit
time.
• When you compare the amount of
energy required to operate an
electric dryer vs. a laptop
computer, the electric dryer
demands more energy per unit
time.
• More energy per unit time means
more power is required!

How much electrical
energy per second?
100 joules per
second.
Power vs. Work
When carrying a load up some stairs, you do the
same amount of work whether you walk or run
up the stairs.
Whether you walk 3 km or run 3 km, you do the
same amount of work (your weight x distance),
burn roughly the same amount of calories, and
use the same amount of energy.
So what is power?
Power
• Consider a person climbing stairs.
• Name two ways that the person can double
their power when moving.
• Do twice the work in the same amount of time
(climb a second flight of stairs in the same
time)
• Do the same amount of work in half the time
(climb one flight of stairs in half the time).
9.2 Power
The three main engines of the
space shuttle can develop
33,000 MW of power when
fuel is burned at the
enormous rate of 3400 kg/s.

think!
If a forklift is replaced with a new forklift that has twice the
power, how much greater a load can it lift in the same amount
of time? If it lifts the same load, how much faster can it
operate?
9.2 Power
think!
If a forklift is replaced with a new forklift that has twice the
power, how much greater a load can it lift in the same amount
of time? If it lifts the same load, how much faster can it
operate?
Answer:
The forklift that delivers twice the power will lift twice the load
in the same time, or the same load in half the time.

If the speed of an object is doubled, its kinetic
energy is quadrupled (22 = 4).
• It takes four times the work to double the speed.
• An object moving twice as fast takes four times as much

9.4 Potential Energy
Gravitational Potential Energy
•Energy is stored in an object as the result of increasing its

•Work is required to elevate objects against Earth’s gravity.
•Example: Water in an elevated reservoir and the raised ram
of a pile driver have gravitational potential energy.

The amount of gravitational potential energy possessed by
an elevated object is equal to the work done against gravity
to lift it.

Work – Energy
Theorem
What is the
relationship between
work and kinetic
energy (work-energy
theorem)?
• Work done changes the
energy. If a car has
34,000 J of KE, 34,000 J
of work was done on the
car to speed it up, and
braking will require
34,000 J of negative
work due to friction to
bring the car to rest

a. An infrared camera reveals the heated tire track on the
floor.
b. The warmth of the tire is also revealed.
kinetic energy is transformed into thermal energy, sound and
vibrations, which represent work done to slow the bike (Fd)
9.6 Work-Energy Theorem
The work-energy theorem states that whenever
work is done, energy changes.
Work = ∆KE
Work equals the change in
kinetic energy.
Calculating Stopping Distance
• Fd = ½ mv2
• What is the stopping distance for a 650 kg
car that is traveling 5 m/s if 4,500 N of
braking force is applied?
• d = ½ mv2
F
• d = 1.8 m
• Calculate the stopping distance for the
same car that travels at 10 m/s.
• 7.2 m.
Calculating Stopping Distance
• Calculate the stopping distance for the
same car that travels at 10 m/s.
• 7.2 m.
• How does this stopping distance compare
with the stopping distance at 5 m/s?
• It is four times greater!
• Double the speed, quadruple the stopping
distance.
Calculate Stopping Distance
• Fd = ½ mv2
-Calculate the difference in stopping distance for a car that travels at 30 km/h
and the same car that travels 60 km/h. Assume that the mass of the car is
800 kg and the braking force is 5000 N. Show your work and analyze your
results. (Note: you must first convert km/h to m/s)
How does speed influence stopping distance?
9.6 Work-Energy Theorem
A car moving at twice the speed of another has four times as
much kinetic energy, and will require four times as much work
to stop.
The frictional force is nearly the same for both cars, so the
faster one takes four times as much distance to stop.
Kinetic energy depends on speed squared.
9.6 Work-Energy Theorem
Typical stopping distances for cars equipped with
antilock brakes traveling at various speeds. The work
done to stop the car is friction force × distance of
slide.

How much farther will the car skid if it’s moving 3 times as
fast?
9.6 Work-Energy Theorem
think!
When the brakes of a car are locked, the car skids to a stop.
How much farther will the car skid if it’s moving 3 times as
fast?
Answer:
Nine times farther. The car has nine times as much kinetic
energy when it travels three times as fast:
9.6 Work-Energy Theorem
For moving objects such as cars:
The more kinetic energy it has, the more work is required to
stop it.
Twice as much kinetic energy means twice as much work.
Brakes do work on wheels (you do work by pushing the brake
pedal). When a car brakes, the work is the friction force
(supplied by the brakes) multiplied by the distance over which
the friction force acts.
KE is transformed by work (friction) into thermal energy, sound
energy and larger-scale vibrations.
9.7 Conservation of Energy
The law of conservation of energy states that energy
cannot be created or destroyed. It can be
transformed from one form into another, but the
total amount of energy never changes.
For any system in its entirety—as simple
as a swinging pendulum or as complex as
an exploding galaxy—there is one quantity
that does not change: energy.
Energy may change form, but the total
energy stays the same.
9.7 Conservation of Energy
When energy is transformed, it is conserved, meaning that it
will change form without losing its original amount of energy.
9.7 Conservation of Energy
When the woman leaps from the
burning building, the sum of her PE
and KE remains constant at each
successive position all the way down
to the ground.
9.7 Conservation of Energy
Elastic potential energy
will become the kinetic
energy of the arrow
when the bow does
work on the arrow.
As you draw back the arrow in a bow, you
do work stretching the bow.
The bow then has potential energy.
When released, the arrow has kinetic
energy equal to this potential energy.
It delivers this energy to its target.
9.7 Conservation of Energy
Everywhere along the path of the pendulum bob, the sum of
PE and KE is the same. Because of the work done against
friction, this energy will eventually be transformed into heat.
Non-useful work can also be called non-useful energy!

• Why does a tennis ball eventually stop
bouncing?
• Eventually, all of the total mechanical energy is
transformed into non-useful energy (heat,
sound, movement of fibers)

The 2 J of heat can be called nonuseful work (work that is not part of the
object’s total mechanical energy).
Dissipated energy (DE) is amount of energy
transferred away from the total mechanical
energy. More DE means less KE, which
reduces TME, which means less speed!
10 J of PE does 8 J
useful work on the
arrow and 2 J of
non-useful work on
