Chapter 7 Work and Kinetic Energy Chapter 7 Work and Kinetic Energy Which one costs energy? Question: (try it) How to throw a baseball to give it large speed? Answer: Apply large force across a large distance! Force exerted through a distance performs mechanical work. 1 Units of Chapter 7 • Work Done by a Constant Force • Kinetic Energy • The Work-Energy Theorem • Work Done by a Variable Force (optional) • Power Read Chapter 8, Potential energy before the next lecture. We will finish Chapter 8 in the next lecture. 2 7-1 Work Done by a Constant Force When the force is parallel to the displacement: Constant force in direction of motion does work W. (7-1) SI unit: newton -meter (N·m) = Joule, J 1 J = 1 N.m 3 If F= 15 N, distance = 2 m , W=30 J 7-1 Work Done by a Constant Force 1J1 Jou le 1 J How much is that? 4 If the force is at an angle to the motion, it does the following work: (7-3) θ is the angle between force and motion direction. Pulling at θ= 20 , F=15N, d=2 m 5 W= Fd cos θ =15*2* cos 20 = 28 J 7-1 Work Done by a Constant Force The work can al so b e writt en as th e d ot product of the force and the displacement: θ is the angle between force and motion directi on. 6 The work done may be positive, zero, or negative, depending on the angle between the force and the motion: Here for F and d we only use their sizes (absolute value). The sign of the work is determined only by the angle between that force and motion. 7 Special cases: When force is When force is Opposite ppperpendicular to motion direction, to motion direction, cos(180)=-1. it does no work. Examples: Examples: Normal force is always Kinetic friction force perpendicular to surface . does negative work. W = – f d Tension of pendulum … fk k 8 Always! If there is more than one force acting on an object, we can find the work done by each force and add them together to find the total work. (7-5) Total work: Wtotal = W1 + W2 +W3+ ….. the sum of the work done by each forces. 9 Q: Is Work a scalar or a vector? Scalar! It on ly says how muc h energy is add ed or used , (positive or negative), but doesn’t indicate motion directions or force directions. When we add work to get total work, we add as ppgpositive and negative simple numbers. We don’t add work as vector arrows. x fk Fpull If FPull= fk ; a=0 , v=constant WPull= FPull d ; Wfk= – fk d ; Wtotal = 0 If FPull >f> fk ; a >0 , If v >0, v w ill increase.

Bundles are created with potential instructional use in mind, based upon potential for related phenomena that can be used throughout a unit. MS-PS3-1 Construct and interpret graphical displays of data to describe the relationships of kinetic energy to the mass of an object and to the speed of an object. [Clarification Statement: Emphasis is on descriptive relationships between kinetic energy and mass separately from kinetic energy and speed. Examples could include riding a bicycle at different speeds, rolling different sizes of rocks downhill, and getting hit by a wiffle ball versus a tennis ball.] MS-PS3-2 Develop a model to describe that when the arrangement of objects interacting at a distance changes, different amounts of potential energy are stored in the system. [Clarification Statement: Emphasis is on relative amounts of potential energy, not on calculations of potential energy. Examples of objects within systems interacting at varying distances could include: the Earth and either a roller coaster cart at varying positions on a hill or objects at varying heights on shelves, changing the direction/orientation of a magnet, and a balloon with static electrical charge being brought closer to a classmate’s hair. Examples of models could include representations, diagrams, pictures, and written descriptions of systems.] [Assessment Boundary: Assessment is limited to two objects and electric, magnetic, and gravitational interactions.] MS-PS3-5.

  • Feeling Joules and Watts
    FEELING JOULES AND WATTS OVERVIEW & PURPOSE Power was originally measured in horsepower – literally the number of horses it took to do a particular amount of work. James Watt developed this term in the 18th century to compare the output of steam engines to the power of draft horses. This allowed people who used horses for work on a regular basis to have an intuitive understanding of power. 1 horsepower is about 746 watts. In this lab, you’ll learn about energy, work and power – including your own capacity to do work. Energy is the ability to do work. Without energy, nothing would grow, move, or ​ change. Work is using a force to move something over some distance. ​ ​ work = force x distance Energy and work are measured in joules. One joule equals the work done (or energy ​ ​ used) when a force of one newton moves an object one meter. One newton equals the ​ ​ force required to accelerate one kilogram one meter per second squared. How much energy would it take to lift a can of soda (weighing 4 newtons) up two meters? work = force x distance = 4N x 2m = 8 joules Whether you lift the can of soda quickly or slowly, you are doing 8 joules of work (using 8 joules of energy). It’s often helpful, though, to measure how quickly we are ​ ​ doing work (or using energy). Power is the amount of work (or energy used) in a given ​ ​ amount of time. http://www.rdcep.org/demo-collection page 1 work power = time Power is measured in watts.

  • Maximum Frictional Dissipation and the Information Entropy of Windspeeds
    J. Non-Equilib. Thermodyn. 2002 Vol. 27 pp. 229±238 Á Á Maximum Frictional Dissipation and the Information Entropy of Windspeeds Ralph D. Lorenz Lunar and Planetary Lab, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ, USA Communicated by A. Bejan, Durham, NC, USA Registration Number 926 Abstract A link is developed between the work that thermally-driven winds are capable of performing and the entropy of the windspeed history: this information entropy is minimized when the minimum work required to transport the heat by wind is dissipated. When the system is less constrained, the information entropy of the windspeed record increases as the windspeed ¯uctuates to dissipate its available work. Fluctuating windspeeds are a means for the system to adjust to a peak in entropy production. 1. Introduction It has been long-known that solar heating is the driver of winds [1]. Winds represent the thermodynamic conversion of heat into work: this work is expended in accelerat- ing airmasses, with that kinetic energy ultimately dissipated by turbulent drag. Part of the challenge of the weather forecaster is to predict the speed and direction of wind. In this paper, I explore how the complexity of wind records (and more generally, of velocity descriptions of thermally-driven ¯ow) relates to the available work and the frictional or viscous dissipation. 2. Zonal Energy Balance Two linked heat ¯uxes drive the Earth's weather ± the vertical transport of heat upwards, and the transport of heat from low to high latitudes. In the present paper only horizontal transport is considered, although the concepts may be extended by analogy into the vertical dimension.

  • Work-Energy for a System of Particles and Its Relation to Conservation Of
    Conservation of Energy, the Work-Energy Principle, and the Mechanical Energy Balance In your study of engineering and physics, you will run across a number of engineering concepts related to energy. Three of the most common are Conservation of Energy, the Work-Energy Principle, and the Mechanical Engineering Balance. The Conservation of Energy is treated in this course as one of the overarching and fundamental physical laws. The other two concepts are special cases and only apply under limited conditions. The purpose of this note is to review the pedigree of the Work-Energy Principle, to show how the more general Mechanical Energy Bal- ance is developed from Conservation of Energy, and finally to describe the conditions under which the Mechanical Energy Balance is preferred over the Work-Energy Principle. Work-Energy Principle for a Particle Consider a particle of mass m and velocity V moving in a gravitational field of strength g sub- G ject to a surface force Rsurface . Under these conditions, writing Conservation of Linear Momen- tum for the particle gives the following: d mV= R+ mg (1.1) dt ()Gsurface Forming the dot product of Eq.

  • Chapter 7 Electricity Lesson 2 What Are Static and Current Electricity?
    Chapter 7 Electricity Lesson 2 What Are Static and Current Electricity? Static Electricity • Most objects have no charge= the atoms are neutral. • They have equal numbers of protons and electrons. • When objects rub against another, electrons move from the atoms of one to atoms of the other object. • The numbers of protons and electrons in the atoms are no longer equal: they are either positively or negatively charged. • The buildup of charges on an object is called static electricity. • Opposite charges attract each other. • Charged objects can also attract neutral objects. • When items of clothing rub together in a dryer, they can pick up a static charge. • Because some items are positive and some are negative, they stick together. • When objects with opposite charges get close, electrons sometimes jump from the negative object to the positive object. • This evens out the charges, and the objects become neutral. • The shocks you can feel are called static discharge. • The crackling noises you hear are the sounds of the sparks. • Lightning is also a static discharge. • Where does the charge come from? • Scientists HYPOTHESIZE that collisions between water droplets in a cloud cause the drops to become charged. • Negative charges collect at the bottom of the cloud. • Positive charges collect at the top of the cloud. • When electrons jump from one cloud to another, or from a cloud to the ground, you see lightning. • The lightning heats the air, causing it to expand. • As cooler air rushes in to fill the empty space, you hear thunder. • Earth can absorb lightning’s powerful stream of electrons without being damaged.

Notation and Sign Convention In these Lecture Notes we examine the basis of thermodynamics – fundamental definitions and equations for energy, heat, and work. 3-1. Energy. Two of man's earliest observations was that: 1)useful work could be accomplished by exerting a force through a distance and that the product of force and distance was proportional to the expended effort, and 2)heat could be ‘felt’ in when close or in contact with a warm body. There were many explanations for this second observation including that of invisible particles traveling through space1. It was not until the early beginnings of modern science and molecular theory that scientists discovered a true physical understanding of ‘heat flow’. It was later that a few notable individuals, including James Prescott Joule, discovered through experiment that work and heat were the same phenomenon and that this phenomenon was energy: Energy is the capacity, either latent or apparent, to exert a force through a distance. The presence of energy is indicated by the macroscopic characteristics of the physical or chemical structure of matter such as its pressure, density, or temperature - properties of matter. The concept of hot versus cold arose in the distant past as a consequence of man's sense of touch or feel. Observations show that, when a hot and a cold substance are placed together, the hot substance gets colder as the cold substance gets hotter.

  • Work, Power, & Energy
    WORK, POWER, & ENERGY In physics, work is done when a force acting on an object causes it to move a distance. There are several good examples of work which can be observed everyday - a person pushing a grocery cart down the aisle of a grocery store, a student lifting a backpack full of books, a baseball player throwing a ball. In each case a force is exerted on an object that caused it to move a distance. Work (Joules) = force (N) x distance (m) or W = f d The metric unit of work is one Newton-meter ( 1 N-m ). This combination of units is given the name JOULE in honor of James Prescott Joule (1818-1889), who performed the first direct measurement of the mechanical equivalent of heat energy. The unit of heat energy, CALORIE, is equivalent to 4.18 joules, or 1 calorie = 4.18 joules Work has nothing to do with the amount of time that this force acts to cause movement. Sometimes, the work is done very quickly and other times the work is done rather slowly. The quantity which has to do with the rate at which a certain amount of work is done is known as the power. The metric unit of power is the WATT. As is implied by the equation for power, a unit of power is equivalent to a unit of work divided by a unit of time. Thus, a watt is equivalent to a joule/second. For historical reasons, the horsepower is occasionally used to describe the power delivered by a machine.
