Work, Power, and
Simple Machines
Work
• Force acting through a
distance
• Must be movement
• Work = force x distance
Joule
Newton meters
Work
• If the direction of the
movement is Not the
same as the force… NO
work is done!

Is Work
Done?
SI unit of Work
Joule = Newton x meter
(J) = N x m
A weight lifter lifts a 1600
newton barbell over his head.
The barbell is lifted to a
height of 2.0 meters.
Calculate the work done.
Work = Force x Distance
A student rows a boat across
a still pond with a force of 72
newtons. The student travels
a distance of 13 meters
Calculate the work done.
Work = Force x Distance
•Involves
time
Power
• How fast is work done?
• Power = Work / time
Watts Joules
seconds
• Large amounts of power
are measured in kilowatts
Doing work faster requires
more power.
You
can increase the amount
of work done in a given time.
OR
You can do a given amount of
work in less time.
SI unit of Power
Watt = Joule second
(W) = J/s
A truck pulls a trailer at a
constant velocity for 100 m
while exerting a force of 480
N for 1 minute (60 s).
Calculate the work done and
the power.
Work = Force x Distance
Power = Work time

Horse- • equal to 750 watts
power
• 1 strong horse can move
a 750 N object 1 meter
in 1 second
• 1 hp = small electric
motor
• family car = 100 hp
• diesel train = 10,000 hp

WORK AND MACHINES
Yes…machines do work
Machine
Work
Input
• makes work easier
increase force
increase distance
change the direction
• Work applied to the
machine by you
Work
•
Work
done
by
the
machine
Output
Work Input =
Input Force x Input Distance
Work Output =
Output Force x Output Distance
14:3 Mechanical Advantage
Number
of times a machine
multiplies the force applied
Ex. Cracking Pecans
Actual Mechanical Advantage
The
mechanical advantage
determined by measuring the
actual forces acting on a machine.
Actual
Mechanical Advantage =
Output Force
Input Force

A woman drives her car onto
wheel ramps to perform some
repairs. If she drives a distance
of 1.8 meters along the ramp to
raise the car 0.3 meter, what is
the ideal mechanical advantage
(IMA) of the wheel ramps?
IMA = Input Distance

see-saw in equilibrium below?
Efficiency
• How much work input is used
to create work output
• Eff. = Work output x 100%
Work input
Ex. Gas mileage = Miles driven
Gallons of gas
