Title: The forces that affect our lives, the influences that mold and shape us, are often like whispers in


1
The forces that affect our lives, the influences
that mold and shape us, are often like whispers
in a distant room, teasingly indistinct,
apprehended only with difficulty.
Charles Dickens

Energy
  • Energy comes in many forms and shapes

Energy
  • Energy comes in many forms and shapes
  • Food we eat is made up of complex molecules like
    carbohydrates, fats and proteins. You learned
    last year about the energy contained within
    chemical bonds and what happens when these bonds
    are rearranged

Energy
  • Energy comes in many forms and shapes
  • Thermal energy is that idea of heat and what it
    means to be warm or cold and which direction
    those will flow. The idea of thermodynamics is
    the study of heat and how it behaves.
  • Remember Qmc?T ??

5
Energy
  • Energy comes in many forms and shapes
  • Electromagnetic radiation from the sun provides
    us with energy above and beyond the obvious heat
    that we feel while baking on a beach.
  • The electromagnetic spectrum includes many
    varieties of waves that all possess differing
    amounts of energy.

6
Energy
  • Energy comes in many forms and shapes
  • Einsteins biggest contribution to scientific
    thought was his astonishing revelation that all
    matterALL MATTERis simply energy packaged in
    different ways.
  • Emc2 is simply a mathematical statement of that
    observation

7
Forms of Energy
  • Looking around you every day will lend itself to
    seeing varying forms of energy in our terms.
  • Springs, elastic bands, gasoline, light, heat,
    hammers, lawnmowers, shovels, even the human
    body..these all possess or use or transform that
    idea we call energy

  • Another way to look at energy as a definition is
    where we begin Chapter 7.Energy is that entity
    that provides the ability to do work.

9
Work the scientific definition
  • Work as we know it in every day terms is not
    really the truest definition of work in the
    scientific realm

10
Work the scientific definition
  • Work as we know it in every day terms is not
    really the truest definition of work in the
    scientific realm
  • In physics, and all science, work is done when a
    force causes a movement of an object.

Work the scientific definition
  • Work as we know it in every day terms is not
    really the truest definition of work in the
    scientific realm
  • In physics, and all science, work is done when a
    force causes a movement of an object.
  • IMPULSE force applied over a period of time
    (F)(t)
  • WORK force applied over a distance (F)(x)

12
WORK
  • When a force acts upon an object to cause a
    displacement of the object, it is said that work
    was done upon the object.
  • There are three key ingredients to work - force,
    displacement, and cause.

WORK
  • When a force acts upon an object to cause a
    displacement of the object, it is said that work
    was done upon the object.
  • There are three key ingredients to work - force,
    displacement, and cause.
  • In order for a force to qualify as having done
    work on an object, there must be a displacement
    and the force must cause the displacement.
  • There are several good examples of work which can
    be observed in everyday life - a horse pulling a
    plow through the field, a father pushing a
    grocery cart down the aisle of a grocery store, a
    freshman lifting a backpack full of books upon
    her shoulder, a weightlifter lifting a barbell
    above his head, an Olympian launching the
    shot-put, etc. In each case described here there
    is a force exerted upon an object to cause that
    object to be displaced.

14
Read the following four statements and determine
whether or not they represent examples of work.
  • A teacher applies a force to a wall and becomes
    exhausted. 
  •  
  • A book falls off a table and free falls to the
    ground. 
  •  
  • A waiter carries a tray full of meals above his
    head by one arm straight across the room at
    constant speed. (Careful! This is a very
    difficult question which will be discussed in
    more detail later.) 
  •  
  • A rocket accelerates through space.

WORK
  • Mathematically, work can be expressed by the
    following equation
  • W (F)(x)(cos?)
  • where F is the force, x is the displacement,
    and the angle (?) is defined as the angle between
    the force and the displacement vector.

16
Units are the punctuation of science!!!
  • Unit for work is a derived one
  • Force times displacement
  • Newtons times meters (Nm)
  • Nm is called the JOULE
  • 1000 Joules is 1 kilojoule (1 kJ)
  • 1,000,000 Joules is 1 megajoule (1 MJ)

17
WORK
  • The angle measure is defined as the angle between
    the force and the displacement. To gather an idea
    of its meaning, consider the following three
    scenarios

18
WORK Scenarios
  • Scenario A A force acts rightward upon an object
    as it is displaced rightward. In such an
    instance, the force vector and the displacement
    vector are in the same direction. Thus, the angle
    between F and x is 0 degrees.

19
WORK Scenarios
  • Scenario B A force acts leftward upon an object
    which is displaced rightward. In such an
    instance, the force vector and the displacement
    vector are in the opposite direction. Thus, the
    angle between F and x is 180 degrees.

WORK Scenarios
  • Scenario C A force acts upward on an object as
    it is displaced rightward. In such an instance,
    the force vector and the displacement vector are
    at right angles to each other. Thus, the angle
    between F and x is 90 degrees.

Work Formula
  • Where does that cosine ? come from?
  • Consider an example of pulling on a crate with a
    rope
  • A. If the pull and the displacement are in the
    same direction, then ? is 0.
  • COSINE OF ZERO 1.0

Fpull

Work Formula
  • Where does that cosine ? come from?
  • Consider an example of pulling on a crate with a
    rope
  • B. If the pull and the displacement are in
    opposite directions, then ? is 180.
  • COSINE OF 180 -1.0

Ffriction

23
Work Formula
  • Where does that cosine ? come from?
  • Consider an example of pulling on a crate with a
    rope
  • C. If the pull and the displacement are at an
    angle of 37 then
  • The portion of the force that is
  • parallel to the motion is (F)(cos?)
  • Assuming the displacement is in the same
    direction as that parallel force, then the
    formula looks like
  • W(F)(cos?)(x)

In-Class PracticeSolve the following examples
25
Solutions
  • Diagram A Answer
  • W (100 N) (5 m) cos(0 degrees) 500 J
  • The force and the displacement are given in the
    problem statement. It is said (or shown or
    implied) that the force and the displacement are
    both rightward. Since F and x are in the same
    direction, the angle is 0 degrees.

26
Solutions
  • Diagram B Answer
  • W (100 N) (5 m) cos(30 degrees) 433 J
  • The force and the displacement are given in
    the problem statement. It is said that the
    displacement is rightward. It is shown that the
    force is 30 degrees above the horizontal. Thus,
    the angle between F and x is 30 degrees.

27
Solutions
  • Diagram C Answer
  • W (150 N) (5 m) cos(0 degrees) 750 J
  • The displacement is given in the problem
    statement. The applied force must be 150 N since
    the 15-kg mass (Fgrav150 Nweight) is lifted at
    constant speed. Since F and y are in the same
    direction, the angle is 0 degrees.

    frictionless surface for a displacement of 5.0 m
    to the right.

    horizontal displacement.

    work when they make a 90-degree angle with the
    displacement.
  • WFcos?x (20N)(cos90)(5m) 0 J

    constant speed by a 20-N force for a vertical
    displacement of 5 m.

37
Practice Problems
  • An approximately 2-kg object is pulled upward at
    constant speed by a 20-N force for a vertical
    displacement of 5 m.
  • Both Fgrav and Ftens do work. Forces do work when
    there is some component of force in the same or
    opposite direction of the displacement.
