QOD #103 • Calculate the POTENTIAL ENERGY of a ball with a mass of 2 kg, sitting on a ledge 3 meters high. (PE=mgh) PE=58.8 Joules 2. Calculate the KINETIC ENERGY of that ball as it falls with a velocity of 15m/s. (KE=0.5mv2) KE = 225 Joules Both units are in Joules!
Work 5-13-14 Work – The amount of energy used as a force moves an object over a distance. Ex. Lifting weights • It is not considered work if there is no movement. • Work is measured in Joules (J)
Work Equation W = F d Work (J) = Force (N) x distance (m)
Ex1:A student pushes a desk 2 m using a force of 25 N. How much work does the student do? W = Fd W = 25 N x 2 m W = 50 Joules (J)
Ex2:Jerry drags Tom 3 meters across the floor with a force of 15N. Calculate Jerry’s work. W = Fd W = 15 N x 3 m W = 45 J
Marble Launcher Question: How does the force applied to the marble affect the work done on the marble? Purpose: Calculate work.
IV: force applied to the marble DV: distance marble travels Constants: pressure on lever, size/mass of the marble, Prediction: I think…
Procedures: • Pull the lever down to the first notch, 3 N. • Place the marble in the launcher. • Make sure everyone is out of the way & ready! Everyone must wear googles! • Push lever & marble will release. • Estimate the distance the marble went. • Someone must be ready to catch the marble & roll it backto the launcher. Record the distance. Jobs: • Marble Launcher • Marble catcher • Distance reader • Recorder
QOD#104 Calculate the amount of work to push a box 20m with a force of 30N. W = Fd W = 30 N x 20 m W = 600 J
