5.1 Work A simple machine is a system that has work done on it. It, in turn, does work on an object or another system. Work—transfer of energy that occurs when a force makes an object move 2
5.1 Work For work to occur, an object must move. The motion of the object must be in the same direction as the applied force on the object. 3
5.1 Work Work and energy are related, since energy is always transferred from the object doing the work to the object on which the work is done. 4
5.1 Work Work is done on an object only when a force is being applied to the object and the object moves. 5
5.1 Work Calculating work—work equals force in newtons times distance. Work measured in Joules. W = f x d 6
5.1 Work Power—amount of work done in a certain amount of time; rate at which work is done • Calculating power—power equals work divided by time. p = w/t • Power is measured in watts (W) 7
5.1 Work • Since work and energy are related, power can also be calculated—power equals energy divided by time. P = E/t End Sect. 1 Practice Problems—Work, Power. Pg 128, 130. 8
5.2 Using Machines Device that makes doing work easier is a machine. Machines increase applied force and/or change direction of applied force to make work easier. 9
5.2 Using Machines Same amount of work can be done by applying a small force over a long distance as can be done applying a large force over a short distance, since work equals force times distance. 10
5.2 Using Machines Increasing distance reduces the amount of force needed to do the work. Some machines change the direction of the applied force to do work. 11
5.2 Using Machines Machines help move things that resist being moved. Force applied to machine is effort force. Resistance force is force applied by machine to overcome resistance. 12
5.2 Using Machines Amount of energy the machine transfers to the object cannot be greater than the amount of energy transferred to the machine. 13
5.2 Using Machines Some energy transferred is changed to heat due to friction. An ideal machine with no friction would have the same input work and output work. 14
5.2 Using Machines Mechanical advantage (MA) is the number of times a machine multiplies the effort force. It is calculated by MA equals resistance force divided by effort force. Fe =effort force. Fr =resistance force. 15
Calculate: Calculate the mechanical advantage of a crowbar to which you apply 100 N of force to lift a 250-N rock. MA = resistance force / effort force = 250 N / 100 N = 2.5
5.2 Using Machines Efficiency—measure of how much of the work put into a machine is changed into useful output work by the machine. 16
5.2 Using Machines Calculating efficiency—efficiency equals (output work divided by input work) times 100%. 17
5.2 Using Machines Efficiency of a machine is always less than 100%. Lubricants can make machines more efficient by reducing friction. End 2 18
5.3 Simple Machines. A machine that does work with only one movement is a simple machine. Lever—bar that is free to pivot about a fixed point called a fulcrum 19
5.3 Simple Machines. Effort arm is part of the lever on which effort force is applied. Resistance arm is part of the lever that exerts the resistance force. 20
5.3 Simple Machines. Three classes of levers based on positions of effort force, resistance force, and fulcrum First-class lever—fulcrum is located between the effort and resistance forces; multiples and changes direction of force. 21
5.3 Simple Machines. Second-class lever—resistance force is located between the effort force and fulcrum; always multiplies force. 22
5.3 Simple Machines. Third-class lever—effort force is between the resistance force and fulcrum; doesn’t multiply force but does increase distance over which force is applied. 23
5.3 Simple Machines. Calculating ideal mechanical advantage (IMA) of a lever—IMA equals length of effort arm divided by length of resistance arm. 24
5.3 Simple Machines. Grooved wheel with a rope, simple chain, or cable running along a groove is a pulley, which is a modified first-class lever. 25
5.3 Simple Machines. A fixed pulley is attached to something that doesn’t move; force is not multiplied but direction is changed; IMA=1. 26
5.3 Simple Machines. A movable pulley has one end of the rope fixed and the wheel free to move; multiples force; IMA = 2. 27
5.3 Simple Machines. Block and tackle—system of pulleys consisting of fixed and movable pulleys’ IMA = number of ropes supporting resistance weight. 28
5.3 Simple Machines. Wheel and axle—machine with two wheels of different sizes rotating together; modified lever form • IMA= radius of wheel divided by the radius of axle. • Gears are a modified form of a wheel and axle. 29
5.3 Simple Machines. Incline plane—sloping surface that reduces the amount of force required to do work. • IMA = length of slope (effort distance) divided by height of slope (resistance distance.) • Less force is required if a ramp is longer and less steep. 30
5.3 Simple Machines. Screw—inclined plane wrapped in a spiral around a cylindrical post. Inclined plan with one or two sloping sides in a wedge. Compound machine—uses a combination of two or more simple machines. 31
