Work
The work done by a constant force is defined as the distance
moved multiplied by the component of the force in the direction
of displacement:
W  Fd cos θ
Energy
Work
What is the correct unit of work expressed in SI units?
(A) kg m2/s2
(B) kg m2/s
(C) kg m/s2
(D) kg2 m/s2
Work
How much work did the movers do (horizontally) pushing
a 160 kg crate 10.3 m across a rough floor without
acceleration, if the effective coefficient of friction was 0.50?
Work
Can work be done on a system if there is no motion?
(A) Yes, if an outside force is provided.
(B) Yes, since motion is only relative.
(C) No, since a system which is not moving has no energy.
(D) No, because of the way work is defined.

Work
A 50 N object was lifted 2.0 m vertically and is being held
there. How much work is being done in holding the box
in this position?
(A) more than 100 J
(B) 100 J
(C) less than 100 J, but more than 0 J
(D) 0 J

Work done by forces that oppose the direction of motion, such
as friction, will be negative.

Work
Does a centripetal force acting on an object do work on
the object?
(A) Yes, since a force acts and the object moves,
and work is force times distance.
(B) No, because the force and the displacement
of the object are perpendicular.
(C) Yes, since it takes energy to turn an object.
(D) No, because the object has constant speed.

(A) the kinetic energy of the object.
(B) the potential energy of the object.
(C) the work done on the object by the force.
(D) the power supplied to the object by the force.
Kinetic Energy and the Work Energy Theorem (Problem)
(a) If the KE of an arrow is doubled, by what factor has its

Kinetic Energy and the Work Energy Theorem (Problem)
(b) If the speed of an arrow is doubled, by what factor does its
KE increase?
Kinetic Energy and the Work Energy Theorem
Work done is equal to the change in the kinetic energy:
Wnet  KEf  KE i
• If the net work is positive, the kinetic energy increases.
• If the net work is negative, the kinetic energy decreases.

Gravitational Potential Energy
An object can have potential energy by virtue of its position.
Familiar examples of potential energy:
• A wound-up spring
• A stretched elastic band
• An object at some height above the ground

Spring Potential Energy
The restoring force of a spring is
Fs  kx
where k is called the spring
constant, and needs to be
measured for each spring.
The force required to compress
or stretch a spring is:
Fp  kx

Spring Potential Energy
The force increases as the spring is stretched or compressed further.
We find that the potential energy of the compressed or stretched
spring, measured from its equilibrium position, can be written:

The end of the spring is next to the 15 cm mark on the ruler.

where will the end of the spring line up with the ruler

Systems and Energy Conservation
The sum of the changes in the kinetic energy and in the
potential energy is zero – the kinetic and potential energy
changes are equal but opposite in sign.
This allows us to define the total mechanical energy:
Total Mechanical Energy  KE  PE
And its conservation:
ΔKE  ΔPE  0
