 A truck pushes a car by exerting a
horizontal force of 500. N on it. A frictional
force of 300. N opposes the car’s motion as
it moves 4.0m.
 A) Calculate the work done on the car by
the truck.
 B) Calculate the work done on the car by
friction.
 C) Calculate the work done on the car
overall (net work).
Answers
 A) W = Fd = 500 x 4 = 2000 N
 = 2.0 x 103 J
 B) W = Fd = -300 x 4 = -1200 J
 C) Wnet = 2000 – 1200 = 8.0 x 102 J

 Calculate the work done by a horse
that exerts an applied force of 100. N
on a sleigh, if the harness makes an
angle of 30° with the ground and the
sleigh moves 30.m across a flat, level
ice surface (ie, no friction).
Answer
 W = Fd cosΘ = (100)(30)cos(30)
= 2.6 x 103 J

 A 50. kg crate is pulled 40. m along a
horizontal floor by a constant force
exerted by a person (100. N) which
acts at an angle of 37°. The floor is
rough and exerts a force of friction of
50.N. Determine the work done by
EACH FORCE acting on the crate, and
the net work done on the crate.
 DRAW A DIAGRAM!!!
 WFg = FdcosΘ  Work is 0J as the
force is perpendicular to gravitational
force.
 WFN = 0J (same reason as above)
 WFapp = Fdcos Θ =(100)(40)cos37° =
3195J  S.F.  3200 J
 WFf = Fd = -50(40) = -2000 J
 -2.0 x 103J
 Wnet = 3200 – 2000 = 1200 J

velocity initial)?

kinematics equations!)?
 e) If Mrs. Evans drops the book as in d), what is the

Answers
A) Potential: It is not moving, it has the potential to
move (fall).
 B) PE = mgh = 2.4x9.81x3.4 = 80.J
 C) v = 0 (at rest, not thrown)
 D) vf2 = vi2 + 2ad = 2(9.81)(3.4) = 66.708
Vf = 8.2m/s [down]
E) KE = ½ mv2 = ½ (2.4)(8.2)2 = 80.J
F) 80.J
G) When the object is falling, there is both PE and KE.
When it falls 1.7m, there is equal PE and KE. Before
this point (higher than 1.7m) there is more PE. After
this (lower than 1.7m) there is more KE.

Work-Energy Theorem (copy)

“The net work done on an object is equal to its
change in energy"


If the object is experiencing EK:
if Wnet is +ve, EK increases (moves in direction of
force or speeds up)
if Wnet is -ve, EK decreases (moves in direction of
friction or slows down)




If the object is experiencing EP:
if Wnet is +ve, EP increases (is lifted)
if Wnet is -ve, EP decreases (is lowered)
Total Energy and Work-Energy
Theorem (Copy)
 The total energy of an object is the kinetic
energy added to the potential energy.
 ET = Ek + Eg + Ee
 As an object is dropped, the kinetic
energy changes to potential energy until
there is 0 EP and only EK.
Law of Conservation of Energy
(Copy)
 Within an isolated system, energy can change
form, but the total amount of energy is
constant
 Energy cannot be created or destroyed
 Ei = Ef
 So Far…
 Eki + Egi = Ekf + Egf
Mechanical Energy (copy)
 The sum of kinetic and potential
energy
 ***Not including light energy/sound
energy/etc.
 In the absence of friction, any
external work produces a change in
mechanical energy.
Conservation of Mechanical Energy
 In the absence of friction, any
external work produces a change in
mechanical energy.
 Why does there have to be an
absence of friction?
Conservation of Mechanical Energy
 If no work is done, then…
Conservation of Mechanical Energy
(copy)
 The total mechanical energy at any initial
point in an ISOLATED system is equal to
the total mechanical energy at any later
point (in the absence of friction)
 Energy can be transformed from one type
to another
 Example: A falling book starts with
potential energy. As it falls, the potential
energy gets transformed into kinetic
energy
Example 1 … Think and Discuss
Solution
 This is an example of a situation that is much easier to
analyze using conservation of energy, since a kinematics
analysis would involve calculating the accelerations using
vectors and using the distances to calculate final
velocities.
 So what do we know?
 Since both balls are released from rest, they have no
initial kinetic energy.
 Their initial potential energy is the same, since they
are released from the same height.
 When they reach the bottom, neither ball has any
potential energy.
 Same initial energy means same final energy (due to
conservation of energy).
 Since all of the energy is kinetic, having the same
kinetic energy (and same mass) means that they are
going the same speed.

Conservation of Total Energy
Summary Slide
 The total energy of a system is constant.
 HOWEVER… If work is done on a system,
the mechanical energy changes so…
 In the presence of friction, work (by
friction) causes a change in total energy.

 A 250 g car rolls down a ramp. The
car starts from a height of 32 cm, and
reaches a speed of 1.7 m/s at the
bottom of the ramp. Was mechanical
energy conserved?
Solution
 To determine if mechanical energy
was conserved, we must calculate the
total initial energy and the total final
energy. We will use the bottom of the
ramp as the reference level.
