Work
Work is a measure of the energy that a force puts into (+) or
takes away from (–) an object as it moves.
We will see that work is a useful way to solve problems where
the force on an object is a known function of position.
Example: the force of an object connected to an ideal spring:
F k x
x
where is the displacement from equilibrium. (Hooke’s Law)

Positive net work means an object’s K.E. increases (speeds up).
Negative net work means an object’s K.E. decreases (slows down).
Zero work means an object’s K.E. stays constant (constant speed).
R2-7
Does work depend on the path?
Conservative Forces
For general forces, the work does depend on the path that we take.
However, there are some forces for which work does not depend on
the path taken between the beginning and ending points.
These are called conservative forces.
A mathematically equivalent way to put this is that the work done by
a conservative force along any closed path is exactly zero.

(The funny integral symbol means a path that closes back on itself.)
R2-8
Conservative Forces
Non-Conservative Forces
Examples of Conservative Forces:
Gravity
Ideal Spring (Hooke’s Law)
Electrostatic Force (later in Physics 1)
Examples of Non-Conservative Forces:
Human Pushes and Pulls
Friction
R2-9
Conservative Forces
and Potential Energy
If we are dealing with a conservative force, we can simplify the process
of calculating work by introducing potential energy.
1. Define a point where the potential energy is zero (our choice).
2. Find the work done from that point to any other point in space.
(This is not too hard for most conservative forces.)
3. Define the potential energy at each point as negative the work done
from the reference point to there. Call this function U.
4 The work done by the conservative force from any point A to any
point B is then simply W = U(A)–U(B).
R2-10
Two Common Potential Energy
Functions in Physics 1
Gravitational Potential Energy
Ug m g ( y y0 ) m g h
(y0 is our choice to make the problem easier)
Spring Potential Energy
U s 12 k ( x x 0 ) 2
(x0 is the equilibrium position and k is the spring constant)
R2-11
Potential Energy, Kinetic Energy,
and Conservation of Energy
Recall the Work-Energy Theorem:
K Wnet
And for conservative forces we have
Wcons U
If the non-conservative forces are zero or negligible, then
Wnet Wcons
Putting it together,
K U
or
K U 0
Another way to say this is the total energy, K+U, is conserved.

R2-17
Elastic and Inelastic Collisions
Momentum is conserved when the external forces are zero or so
small they can be neglected during the collision. This is often true.
In many collisions a large percentage of the kinetic energy is lost.
These are known as inelastic collisions. For example, any collision
in which two objects stick together is always inelastic.
If the kinetic energy after a collision is the same as before, then we
have an elastic collision. During the collision, some of the kinetic
energy can convert to potential energy of various kinds, but after the
collision is over all of the kinetic energy is restored.

The easiest way to get the direction of the angular acceleration is
to determine the direction of the angular velocity and then…
If the object is speeding up, angular velocity and acceleration
are in the same direction.
If the object is slowing down, angular velocity and acceleration
are in opposite directions.

Energy in Rotation
Consider the kinetic energy in a rotating object. The center of
mass of the object is not moving, but each particle (atom) in the
object is moving at the same angular velocity ().

The summation in the final expression occurs often when
analyzing rotational motion. It is called the moment of inertia.

For a solid object, use an integral where is the density:
I r 2 dx dy dz
We may ask you to calculate the moment of inertia for point objects, but we will
give you a formula for a solid object or just give you its moment of inertia.

Review of Torque
For linear motion, we have “F = m a”. For rotation, we have
I
The symbol “” is torque. We will define it more precisely today.
When the rotation is speeding up, and are in the
same direction.
When the rotation is slowing down, and are in
opposite directions.
Torque and angular acceleration are
always in the same direction in Physics 1.
R2-32
The Vector Cross Product
We learned how to “multiply” two vectors to get a scalar.
That was the “dot”
product:
d a b | a | | b | cos( )
Now we will “multiply”
two vectors
to get another vector:
c a b ; | c | | a | | b | sin( )
The direction comes from the right-hand rule. It is at a right angle
to the plane formed by a and b . In other words, the cross product
is at right angles to both a and b . (3D thinking required!)
R2-33
The Vector Cross Product
R2-34
Torque as a Cross Product
rF
| | | r | | F | sin( )
r is the vector from the axis of rotation to where the force is applied.
The torque can be zero in
three different ways:
1. No force is applied (| F | 0 ).
|
2. The
force is applied at the axis of rotation ( r | 0 ).
3. F and r in the same or opposite directions (sin( ) 0 ).

(What is the direction of angular
momentum here?)
Once we define a center (or axis) of rotation, any object with a
linear momentum that does not move directly through that point
has an angular momentum defined relative to the chosen center.

The figure at the left shows the same
particle at two different times. No forces
(or torques) act on the particle.
Is its angular momentum constant?
(Check magnitudes at the two times.)
Blue angle: = 90º
l = r p sin() = (3) (1) sin(90º) = 3 kg m2/s
Red angle: = arctan(3/4) = 36.87º
l = r p sin() = (5) (1) sin(36.87º) = 3 kg m2/s
[r sin()] is the component of r at a right angle to p . It is
constant.
It is also the distance at closest approach to the center.
