Linear Kinetics Work, power & energy
Today • Continue the discussion of collisions • Discuss the relationships among mechanical work, power and energy • Define center of gravity and explain the significance of center of gravity location in the body
Impact • Type of collision characterized by exchange of a large force over a small time • Post impact behavior depends on collective momentum & nature of impact • Perfectly elastic impact • Perfectly plastic impact
Elastic vs plastic • Perfectly elastic • Velocities after impact are same as velocities before • Perfectly plastic • One of the bodies does not regain original shape & bodies do not separate
Coefficient of restitution • Describes relative elasticity of an impact • Unitless number between 0 and 1 • Between two moving bodies • Between balls and surface
Two moving bodies • “…the difference in their velocities immediately after impact is proportional to the difference in their velocities immediately before impact..” -e = relative velocity after impact relative velocity before impact • Tennis: ball & racket, ball & court • Influencing factors: grip, racket size & weight, string type, tension, swing kinematics, ball condition v1 – v2 u1 – u2 OR -e =
Moving body & stationary one • Describes the interaction between two bodies during an impact e = rebound height drop height • Increased by impact velocity & temperature
Work:from a mechanical standpoint • Force applied against a resistance X the distance the resistance is moved W = Fd W = F X d X cos ex: 20N moves 5 m in direction of F W = 100 Nm or 100 J • No movement --- no mechanical work*
Muscles perform work • Positive work: muscle torque & direction of angular motion in same direction • Negative: muscle torque & direction of angular motion opposite • Units: N • m = J • Is isometric exercise mechanical work?
Work examples • Lifting a weight from the ground to a shelf • Bringing the weight from another room???? • Driving up hill • Driving down hill????? Work is energy that has been used!
Example problems W = (100 N) * (5 m)* cos(0 degrees) = 500 J
Work problem • 580 N person runs up a flight of 30 stairs in 15 s • Each stair = 25 cm height • How much work is done? Known: wt (F) = 580 N h = 30 X 25 cm t = 15 s
Power • Rate of work production P = W or P = fd t t P = Fv • Units: watts W = 1J/s
Amanda and Shelley, are in the weight room. Amanda lifts the 100-pound barbell over her head 10 times in one minute; Shelley lifts the 100-pound barbell over her head 10 times in 10 seconds. Who does the most work? Who delivers the most power?
Power problem • 580 N person runs up a flight of 30 stairs in 15 s • Each stair = 25 cm height • How much mechanical power is generated? Known: wt (F) = 580 N h = 30 X 25 cm t = 15 s W = 4350 J
Power • Applications • Throwing, jumping, weight lifting, sprinting • Force & velocity critical to performance • Power experiment
Energy • “…the capacity to do work…” • “how long we can sustain the output of power” • “how much work we can do” • Mechanical energy mechanical work • Two forms • Kinetic energy • Potential energy • Strain energy
Kinetic energy • Energy of motion KE = ½ mv2 • KE = 0 when motionless • Increases dramatically as v increases 2kg 2kg 3 m/s 1 m/s
Kinetic energy • Increases dramatically as v increases* KE = ½ mv2 * exponential increase 2kg 2kg 1 m/s 3 m/s KE = (0.5) (2 kg) (1 m/s)2 = (1 kg) (1m2/s2) = 1 J KE = (0.5) (2kg)(3m/s)2 = (1kg)(9m2/s2) = 9 J
Potential energy • “..energy stored because of position….” • wt of a body X ht above reference surface • Stored energy PE = wt • h PE = magh • Example: 50 kg 1 m
Strain energy • Elastic energy • Capacity to do work due to a deformed body’s return to original shape SE = ½ kx2 • K = spring constant • X = distance deformed • Muscles store strain energy when stretched • Other examples
Conservation of mechanical energy • Tossing ball into air • As ball gains height • gains PE • Loses KE (losing velocity) • At apex • Height & PE at max value • Velocity & KE = 0 • As ball falls • Gains KE • Loses PE
Conservation of mechanical energy • “..when gravity is the only external force, a body’s mechanical energy remains constant...” (PE + KE) = C What is the velocity just before impact with the floor? 2kg 1.5 m
