Energy is the capacity to doork. work.
What is work ? • A force does work when it acts on a body so that the body is displaced in the direction of the force. Hawkeye does work on his bow by drawing it. Staff Sgt. Joshua Miles, Marine Drum & Bugle Corps marketing chief, thrusts a weighted bar over his head during the first part of the Civilian Military Combine at Bryce Resort, Va., April 21, 2012.
Constant force in direction of straight-line displacement • The unit for Work is the joule. • 1 joule = 1 N●m

Seatwork • The painter lifted a load for a distance of 75 cm and the work done by the painter is 38 J. What is the mass of the load? • A load of 5-kg mass was lifted by the man and the total work done is equal to 40 J. By what distance was the load lifted?

LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY • Energy is neither • created nor destroyed, • it is just transformed. • The only thing that changes is the form in which it appears.
Types of Energy • Kinetic Energy • – energy of motion • – increases when object moves faster • – increases as mass of object increases • Potential energy • – energy of position • – stored energy • – increases as mass of object increases
Types of Energy • Kinetic Energy • Potential energy (gravitational) (elastic)

Sample Problem A person’s heart and head are 1.3m and 1.8m above the feet, respectively. Determine the potential energy associated with 0.50 kg of blood in the heart relative to a.) the feet, b.) the head.
Sample Problem 1.) A 7.00-kg bowling ball moves at 3.00 m/s. How fast must a 2.45-g Ping-Pong ball move so that the two balls have the same kinetic energy?
LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY • Energy is neither • created nor destroyed, • it is just transformed. • The only thing that changes is the form in which it appears. for an isolated system
The Work-Energy Theorem • The work done on an object by a net force equals the change in kinetic energy of the object
Why do you run out of breath when running up stairs but not when walking up, when in fact the work done in both running and climbing up the stairs is the same?
What is power? • Power is the measure of how fast the work is done. It is the rate at which energy is changed from one form to another. The unit for Power is the Watt. 1 Watt = 1 joule/second 1 hp = 745.70 watts
Sample Problems An electric lift can raise a 500.0 kg mass a distance of 10.0 m in 5.0 s. What is the power of the lift?
Seatwork # 6 1(a) How many horsepower is a 1400 W blow dryer? (b) How many watts is a 3.5 hp lawnmower? 2.An electric hoist does 196,000 J of work in raising a 250.0 kg load. How high was the load lifted?
Homework15 May 2014 Answer the problems. Show your solutions. ● Present your answers on ½ of a Letter or A4 sized sheet of unlined paper.
1. • A circus diver at the top of a pole has a potential energy of 8820 J. If the diver has a mass of 45 kg, what is the height of the pole? • Fill in the kinetic and potential energies asked for in the illustration on the right. • What is the diver’s speed just as he hits the water?
2. • A pendulum is displaced so that it has a potential energy of 10 J. Once the bob is released, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. • Fill in the kinetic and potential energies asked for in the illustration.
3. • A mass hangs above the floor on a copper wire. When a lit candle is moved along the wire and warms it, what happens to the height of the wire from the floor? Why? • If a cube of ice was used to cool the wire, how would it affect the height of the mass from the floor? Why?
