Just before hitting the ground, what is the kinetic energy of the heavy stone compared to the light one? a) quarter as much b) half as much c) the same d) twice as much e) four times as much Consider the work done by gravity to make the stone fall distance d: DKE = Wnet = F d cosq DKE = mg d Thus, the stone with the greater mass has the greater KE, which is twice as big for the heavy stone. Follow-up: How do the initial values of gravitational PE compare? Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Free Fall II a) quarter as much In the previous question, just before hitting the ground, what is the final speed of the heavy stone compared to the light one?

Because the acceleration is the same for both, and the distance is the same, then the final speeds will be the same for both stones. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Work Done by a Variable Force The force needed to stretch a spring an amount x is F = kx. Therefore, the work done in stretching the spring is Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Application: work by a spring Hooke’s Law: F = - kx k = (3kg)(9.8 m/s2) / (3.9 cm) k = 760 N/m Loaded spring: W = kx2/2 = (760 N/m) (0.04m)2/ 2 W = 0.61 J How fast?: v = d/t = (0.020 m) (0.020 s) = 1 m/s Kinetic Energy: KE = mv2/2 = (1kg)(1m/s)2 / 2 KE = 0.55 J Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Power Power is a measure of the rate at which work is done: Pave W Dt SI unit: J/s = watt, W 1 horsepower = 1 hp = 746 W Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Power Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Power If an object is moving at a constant speed in the face of friction, gravity, air resistance, and so forth, the power exerted by the driving force can be written: F Dx Dx P F Fv Dt Dt Question: what is the total work per unit time done on the object?

Electric Bill a) energy When you pay the electric company b) power by the kilowatt-hour, what are you c) current actually paying for? d) voltage e) none of the above Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Electric Bill a) energy When you pay the electric company b) power by the kilowatt-hour, what are you c) current actually paying for? d) voltage e) none of the above We have defined: Power = energy / time So we see that: Energy = power × time This means that the unit of power × time (watt-hour) is a unit of energy !!

A string is attached to the block, and is pulled with a force of 45.0 N at an angle above the horizontal, as shown in the figure. After the block is pulled through a distance of 1.50 m, its speed is 2.60 m/s, and 50.0 J of work has been done on it. (a) What is the angle (b) What is the mass of the block?

Note that one chain connects the upper pulley to the ceiling and a second chain connects the lower pulley to the crate. Assuming the masses of the chains, pulleys, and ropes are negligible, determine (a) the force F required to lift the crate with constant speed, and (b) the tension in two chains Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

Sign of the Energy II Is it possible for the a) yes gravitational potential b) no energy of an object to be negative? Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Sign of the Energy II Is it possible for the a) yes gravitational potential b) no energy of an object to be negative? Gravitational PE is mgh, where height h is measured relative to some arbitrary reference level where PE = 0. For example, a book on a table has positive PE if the zero reference level is chosen to be the floor. However, if the ceiling is the zero level, then the book has negative PE on the table. Only differences (or changes) in PE have any physical meaning. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.

Summary of Chapter 8 • Conservative forces conserve mechanical energy • Nonconservative forces convert mechanical energy into other forms • Conservative force does zero work on any closed path • Work done by a conservative force is independent of path • Conservative forces: gravity, spring Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Summary of Chapter 8 • Work done by nonconservative force on closed path is not zero, and depends on the path • Nonconservative forces: friction, air resistance, tension • Energy in the form of potential energy can be converted to kinetic or other forms • Work done by a conservative force is the negative of the change in the potential energy • Gravity: U = mgy • Spring: U = ½ kx2 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Summary of Chapter 8 • Mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic and potential energies; it is conserved only in systems with purely conservative forces • Nonconservative forces change a system’s mechanical energy • Work done by nonconservative forces equals change in a system’s mechanical energy • Potential energy curve: U vs. position Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.
