Work and Kinetic Energy
Hour Exam 1, Tomorrow!

Physics 101: Lecture 9, Pg 1
Energy (and mass) is Conserved
Energy
is “Conserved” meaning it
can not be created nor destroyed
Can change form
Can be transferred
Total
Energy does not change with
time.
This
is a BIG deal!

Work: Energy Transfer due to Force
Force
to lift trunk at constant speed
Case a Ta – mg = 0 T = mg
Case b 2Tb - mg =0 or T = ½ mg
But
in case b, trunk only moves ½
distance you pull rope.
F
* distance is same in both!

Work by Constant Force
A) W>0
B) W=0
C) W<0
Only
component of force parallel to
direction of motion does work!

Work by Constant Force
Example: You pull a 30 N chest 5 meters
across the floor at a constant speed by applying
a force of 50 N at an angle of 30 degrees. How
much work is done by the 50 N force?

Example: Block w/ friction
A block is sliding on a surface with an initial speed of 5
m/s. If the coefficent of kinetic friction between the block
and table is 0.4, how far does the block travel before

Falling Ball Example
Ball
falls a distance 5 meters, What
is final speed?
Only force/work done is gravity

Example: block on incline
A 5kg block is at rest on a frictionless incline. It is pulled 4.5m by a
25N force. What is the final velocity of the block?
