CPO Science Foundations of Physics Chapter 9 Unit 4, Chapter 10 Objectives 1. Calculate the work done in joules for situations involving force and distance. 2. Give examples of energy and transformation of energy from one form to another. 3. Calculate potential and kinetic energy. 4. Apply the law of energy conservation to systems involving potential and kinetic energy. Vocabulary Terms • • energy input force output force thermal energy ramp work efficiency friction potential energy kinetic energy radiant energy nuclear energy chemical energy mechanical energy joule pressure energy conservation of energy electrical energy Machines The ability of humans to build buildings and move mountains began with our invention of machines. In physics the term “simple machine” means a machine that uses only the forces directly applied and accomplishes its task with a single motion. Machines The best way to analyze what a machine does is to think about the machine in terms of input and output. Work In physics, work has a very specific meaning. In physics, work represents a measurable change in a system, caused by a force. Work If you push a box with a force of one newton for a distance of one meter, you have done exactly one joule of work. Work (force is parallel to distance) Force (N) Work (joules) W=Fxd Distance (m) Work (force at angle to distance) Force (N) Work (joules) W = Fd cos (q) Angle Distance (m) 10.2 Work done against gravity Mass (g) Work (joules) W = mgh Height object raised (m) Gravity (m/sec2) 10.3 Why the path doesn't matter 10.3 Calculate work A crane lifts a steel beam with a mass of 1,500 kg. Calculate how much work is done against gravity if the beam is lifted 50 meters in the air. Katie, a 30.0 kg child, climbs a tree to rescue her cat that is afraid to jump 8.0m to the ground. How much work against gravity does Katie do in order to reach the cat? Power Power=W/t Joules/second=Watt Katie, a 30.0 kg child, climbs a tree to rescue her cat that is afraid to jump 8.0m to the ground. She takes 5 min. to climb the 8.0m, calculate Katie’s power. Energy and Conservation of Energy Energy is the ability to do work. A system that has energy has the ability to do work. Energy is measured in the same units as work because energy is transferred during the action of work. 10.3 Forms of Energy Mechanical energy is the energy of an object due to its motion or its position. Radiant energy includes light, microwaves, radio waves, x-rays, and other forms of electromagnetic waves. Nuclear energy is released when heavy atoms in matter are split up or light atoms are put together. The electrical energy we use is derived from other sources of energy. 10.3 Potential Energy Mass (kg) Potential Energy (joules) Ep = mgh Height (m) Acceleration of gravity (m/sec2) 10.3 Potential Energy A cart with a mass of 102 kg is pushed up a ramp. The top of the ramp is 4 meters higher than the bottom. How much potential energy is gained by the cart? Potential Energy A 37 N object is lifted to a height of 3 meters. What is the potential energy of this object? Potential Energy A box has a mass of 5.8kg. The box is lifted from the garage floor and placed on a shelf. If the box gains 145J of Potential Energy ,how high is the shelf? 10.3 Kinetic Energy Energy of motion is called kinetic energy. The kinetic energy of a moving object depends on two things: mass and speed. Kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass. 10.3 Kinetic Energy Mathematically, kinetic energy increases as the square of speed. If the speed of an object doubles, its kinetic energy increases four times. (mass is constant) 10.3 Kinetic Energy Mass (kg) Kinetic Energy (joules) Ek = 1 2 mv2 Speed (m/sec) Kinetic Energy Determine the kinetic energy of a 625-kg roller coaster car that is moving with a speed of 18.3 m/s. Work Energy Theorem W= KE 10.3 Kinetic Energy Kinetic energy becomes important in calculating braking distance. 10.3 Calculate Kinetic Energy A car with a mass of 1,300 kg is going straight ahead at a speed of 30 m/sec (67 mph). The brakes can supply a force of 9,500 N. Calculate: 1. The kinetic energy of the car. 2. The stopping distance of the car. 10.3 Law of Conservation of Energy As energy takes different forms and changes things by doing work, nature keeps perfect track of the total. No new energy is created and no existing energy is destroyed. Review equations… v a F W PE KE
