Work, Energy, and Power Work = W The product of the force F applied to an object over a distance d in which the object travels as a result of the force (Force and distance must be parallel to each other) W = F d Joule (J) is the base unit of work 1 joule = 1 newton × 1 meter J=N×m Work Example A student lifts a 50 pound (lb) ball 4 feet (ft) in 5 seconds (s). How many joules of work did the student complete? Convert English units to SI units 4.45 N 50.0lb 222.5 N 223 N 1lb 4.45N 1lb 1 ft 0.305m Solve for Work W = F d 0.305m 4.00 ft ´ = 1.22m 1 ft W 222.5N 1.22m W 271J Energy Ability to do work Light, heat, mechanical, chemical, and electrical forms of energy can all be used to exert a force for a distance. Roller coaster NASA solar sail Fuel cell Forms of Energy Potential Energy (Stored energy, usually referring to gravitational energy) The capacity to do work by virtue of position or configuration Forms of Energy Kinetic Energy (Energy of motion) Energy which a body possesses because of its motion, which occurs anywhere from an atomic level to that of a whole organism Energy Transformation ChemicalKinetic Radiant Chemical Electrical Thermal Renewable Energy Sources Biomass Hydropower Wind Geothermal Solar Nonrenewable Energy Sources Coal Petroleum Natural Gas Uranium Conservation of Energy Energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can change from one form to another. Energy Conversion Changing one form of energy to another Energy Efficiency: The ratio of the useful energy delivered by a dynamic system to the energy supplied to it Entropy: The increasing disorder when energy is transformed to heat during conversion Pout Efficiency % 100 Pin Energy Conversion Examples Fossil fuels Solar cells Wind turbines Hydroelectric Nuclear Chemical → Heat → Mechanical → Electrical Sunlight → Electrical Kinetic → Mechanical → Electrical Gravitational potential → Mechanical → Electrical Nuclear → Heat → Mechanical → Electrical Vehicle System Conversion Chemical Mechanical Heat Which output is desired, mechanical or heat? What Are Current Energy Concerns? Consumption Pollution Depletion Dependency Cost http://www.eia.doe.gov What roles do engineers have in energy? Power Rate at which work is performed or energy is expended W P= t Watt is the base unit of Power One watt is equal to 1 joule of work per second Types of Power Electrical Power Uses electrical energy to do work Mechanical Power Uses mechanical energy to do work (linear, rotary) Fluid Power Uses energy transferred by liquids (hydraulic) and gases (pneumatic) Power Example A student lifts a 50.0 pound (lbf) ball 4.00 feet (ft) in 5.00 seconds (s). How many watts of power are used to lift the ball? P= W t Work = 271.45 J 271.45J P 5.00 s J P 54.3 s J 1 1 Watt(W ) s P 54.3 W Resources McGraw-Hill dictionary of engineering. (2nd ed.).
