What is work ?
A force does work when it acts on a body so that the
body is displaced in the direction of the force.

bar over his head
during the first part
of the Civilian
Military Combine at
Bryce Resort, Va.,

Seatwork
1. The painter lifted a load for a distance of 75
cm and the work done by the painter is 38 J.
What is the mass of the load?
2. A load of 5-kg mass was lifted by the man
and the total work done is equal to 40 J. By
what distance was the load lifted?

Energy Transfer
LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY
Energy is neither
created nor destroyed,
it is just transformed.
The only thing that
changes is the form in
which it appears.
Types of Energy
Kinetic Energy
– energy of motion
– increases when object moves
faster
– increases as mass of object
increases
Potential energy
– energy of position
– stored energy
– increases as mass of
object increases

1.) A 7.00-kg bowling ball moves at 3.00 m/s. How
fast must a 2.45-g Ping-Pong ball move so that
the two balls have the same kinetic energy?

The Work-Energy Theorem
The work done on an object by a net force equals the
change in kinetic energy of the object
 K .E .  W  F  d
Why do you run out of breath when running up stairs
but not when walking up, when in fact the work
done in both running and climbing up the stairs is the
same?
What is power?
Power is the measure of how fast the work is done. It is
the rate at which energy is changed from one form to
another.

Present your answers on ½ of a Letter or A4
sized sheet of unlined paper.
1.
A circus diver at the top of a pole
has a potential energy of 8820 J.
If the diver has a mass of 45 kg,
what is the height of the pole?
Fill in the kinetic and potential
energies asked for in the
illustration on the right.
What is the diver’s speed just as
he hits the water?
2.
A pendulum is displaced so that it has a potential
energy of 10 J. Once the bob is released, the
potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.
Fill in the kinetic and potential energies asked for
in the illustration.
3.
A mass hangs above the floor on a copper wire. When a
lit candle is moved along the wire and warms it, what
happens to the height of the wire from the floor? Why?
If a cube of ice was used to cool the wire, how would it
affect the height of the mass from the floor? Why?
