Chapter 5: ENERGY
PART-A: Hand in your answers in class on scantron on Monday 04 October-2010
1. A worker pushes a wheelbarrow 5.0 m along a level surface, exerting a
constant horizontal force of
50.0 N. If a frictional force of 43 N acts on the wheelbarrow in a direction
opposite to that of the worker,
what net work is done on the wheelbarrow? (a) 250 J (b) 215 J (c) 35 J (d) 15

2. A skier leaves a ski jump at 15.0 m/s at some angle θ. At what speed is he
traveling at his maximum
height of 4.50 m above the level of the end of the ski jump? (Neglect air
friction.) (a) 11.7 m/s (b) 16.3
m/s (c) 12.2 m/s (d) 8.55 m/s (e) 17.4 m/s
In the absence of any air resistance, the work done by nonconservative forces
is zero. The work–energy theorem then states
that KE f  PE f  KEi  PEi ,which becomes

m v2f  m gy f 

or
vf 

Choosing the initial point to be where the skier leaves end of the jump and
the final point where he reaches
maximum height, this yields

making (a) the correct answer.
3. A 40.0-N crate starting at rest slides down a rough 6.00-m-long ramp,
inclined at 30.0° with the
horizontal. The magnitude of the force of friction between the crate and the
ramp is 6.0 N. What is the
speed of the crate at the bottom of the incline? (a) 1.60 m/s (b) 3.32 m/s
(c) 4.5 m/s (d) 6.42 m/s (e) 7.75
m/s
The mass of the crate is


m  w g   40.0 N  9.80 m s2  4.08 kg
and we may write the work–energy theorem as
Wnet  Wfric  Wgrav  KE f  KEi
Since the crate starts from rest, KEi 

m vi2  0,
and we are left with
KE f  Wfric  Wgrav 
 fk cos 180 

so
KE f   6.00 N   6.00 m    40.0 N  cos 60.0  6.00 m   36.0 J  120 J

making choice (d) the correct response.
4. What average mechanical power must be delivered by the muscles of a 70.0kg mountain climber
who climbs a summit of height 325 m in 95.0 min? Note: Due to inefficiencies
in converting chemical
energy to mechanical energy, the amount calculated here is only a fraction of
the power that must be
produced by the climber’s body. See Chapter 12. (a) 39.1 W (b) 54.6 W (c)
25.5 W (d) 67.0 W (e) 88.4
W
We assume the climber has negligible speed at both the beginning and the end
of the climb. Then KE f  KEi  0 , and the
work done by the muscles is





Wnc  0  PE f  PEi  mg y f  yi   70.0 kg  9.80 m s2

The average power delivered is

t

and the correct answer is choice (a).
5. The work required to accelerate an object on a frictionless surface from a
speed v to a speed 2v is (a)
equal to the work required to accelerate the object from v = 0 to v, (b)
twice the work required to
accelerate the object from v = 0 to v, (c) three times the work required to
accelerate the object from v = 0
to v, (d) four times the work required to accelerate the object from 2v to
3v, or (e) not known without
knowledge of the acceleration.
The net work needed to accelerate the object from  = 0 to  is
W1  KE f  KEi 

Thus, the correct choice is (c).
6. Alex and John are loading identical cabinets onto a truck. Alex lifts his
cabinet straight up from the
ground to the bed of the truck, whereas John slides his cabinet up a rough
ramp to the truck. Which
statement is correct? (a) Alex and John do the same amount of work. (b) Alex
does more work than
John. (c) John does more work than Alex. (d) None of these statements is
necessarily true because the
force of friction is unknown. (e) None of these statements is necessarily
true because the angle of the
incline is unknown.
Assuming that the cabinet has negligible speed during the operation, all of
the work Alex does is used increasing the
gravitational potential energy of the cabinet. However, in addition to
increasing the gravitational potential energy
of the cabinet by the same amount as Alex did, John must do work overcoming
the friction between the cabinet and
ramp. This means that the total work done by John is greater than that done
by Alex and the correct answer is (c).

7. Mark and David are loading identical cement blocks onto David’s pickup
truck. Mark lifts his block
straight up from the ground to the truck, whereas David slides his block up a
ramp on massless,
frictionless rollers. Which statement is true? (a) Mark does more work than
David. (b) Mark and David
do the same amount of work. (c) David does more work than Mark. (d) None of
these statements is
necessarily true because the angle of the incline is unknown. (e) None of
these statements is necessarily
true because the mass of one block is not given.
Since the rollers on the ramp used by David were frictionless, he did not do
any work overcoming nonconservative forces as
he slid the block up the ramp. Neglecting any change in kinetic energy of the
block (either because the speed was
constant or was essentially zero during the lifting process), the work done
by either Mark and David equals the
increase in the gravitational potential energy of the block as it is lifted
from the ground to the truck bed. Because
they lift identical blocks through the same vertical distance, they do equal
amounts of work and the correct choice
is (b).
8. An athlete jumping vertically on a trampoline leaves the surface with a
velocity of 8.5 m/s upward.
What maximum height does she reach? (a) 13 m (b) 2.3 m (c) 3.7 m (d) 0.27 m
(e) The answer can’t be
determined because the mass of the athlete isn’t given.
Once the athlete leaves the surface of the trampoline, only a conservative
force (her weight) acts on her. Therefore, her total
mechanical energy is constant during her flight, or KE f  PE f  KEi  PEi .
Taking the y = 0 at the surface of
the trampoline, PEi  mgyi  0 . Also, her speed when she reaches maximum
height is zero, or KE f  0 . This
leaves us with PE f  KEi , or m gymax 

making (c) the correct choice.
9. A certain truck has twice the mass of a car. Both are moving at the same
speed. If the kinetic energy
of the truck is K, what is the kinetic energy of the car? (a) K/4 (b) K/2 (c)
0.71K (d) K (e) 2K

mtruck v2  KEtruck 2 , so (b) is the correct answer.
10. If the speed of a particle is doubled, what happens to its kinetic
energy? (a) It becomes four times
larger. (b) It becomes two times larger. (c) It becomes √2 times larger. (d)
It is unchanged. (e) It
becomes half as large.
11. If the net work done on a particle is zero, which of the following
statements must be true? (a) The
velocity is zero. (b) The velocity is decreased. (c) The velocity is
unchanged. (d) The speed is
unchanged. (e) More information is needed.

The work–energy theorem states that Wnet  KE f  KEi . Thus, if Wnet  0 ,
then KE f  KEi or

HW-5
1
2
m v2f 
1
2
m vi2 , which

leads to the conclusion that the speed is unchanged v f  vi . The velocity of
the particle involves both
magnitude (speed) and direction. The work–energy theorem shows that the
magnitude or speed is unchanged when
Wnet  0 , but makes no statement about the direction of the velocity.
Therefore, choice (d) is correct but choice
(c) is not necessarily true.
12. A block of mass m is dropped from the fourth floor of an office building,
subsequently hitting the
sidewalk at speed v. From what floor should the mass be dropped to double
that impact speed? (a) the
sixth floor (b) the eighth floor (c) the tenth floor (d) the twelfth floor
(e) the sixteenth floor
As the block falls freely, only the conservative gravitational force acts on
it. Therefore, mechanical energy is conserved,
or. KE f  PE f  KEi  PEi Assuming that the block is released from rest (KEi
 0) , and taking y = 0 at
ground level (PE f  0) , we have that
KE f  PEi
or
1
m v2f  mgyi
2
and
yi 
v2f
2g
Thus, to double the final speed, it is necessary to increase the initial
height by a factor of four, or the correct choice
for this question is (e).
13. A car accelerates uniformly from rest. When does the car require the
greatest power? (a) when the
car first accelerates from rest (b) just as the car reaches its maximum speed
(c) when the car reaches half
its maximum speed (d) The question is misleading because the power required
is constant. (e) More
information is needed.
If the car is to have uniform acceleration, a constant net force F must act
on it. Since the instantaneous power delivered to the
car is P  F v , we see that maximum power is required just as the car reaches
its maximum speed. The correct
answer is (b).
14. A sledge loaded with bricks has a total mass of 18.0 kg and is pulled at
constant speed by a rope
inclined at 20.0° above the horizontal. The sledge moves a distance of 20.0 m
on a horizontal surface.

the hill?
a)
0.459 m
b)
0.487 m
c)

Show the detailed calculations. Write your final answers in the box.
23. A 2 300-kg pile driver is used to drive a steel beam into the ground. The
pile driver falls 7.50 m
before coming into contact with the top of the beam, and it drives the beam
18.0 cm farther into the
ground as it comes to rest. Using energy considerations, calculate the
average force the beam exerts
on the pile driver while the pile driver is brought to rest.
The work the beam does on the pile driver is given by
Wnc   F cos180  x  F  0.180 m 
Here, the factor cos180 is included because the force F exerted on the driver
by the beam is directed upward, but
the  x  18.0 cm  0.180 m displacement undergone by the driver while in
contact with the beam is directed
downward.
From the work–energy theorem, this work can also be expressed as

 

Wnc  KE f  KEi  PE f  PEi 




m v2f  vi2  mg y f  yi
