  1. Unit 05a “Work, Power and Energy” Work - Kinetic Energy Theorem

  2. The “Work-Kinetic Energy Theorem” states … • The work done on an object is equal to the change in the object’s kinetic energy. • The work done is equal to the energy used! • More work done, more change in energy!

  3. This makes sense because … • A force can • Speed up • Slow down • Change direction • The more work you do, the more the object will speed up or slow down! • A change in velocity is a change in kinetic energy! The force of the parachute slows the man down over a certain distance. Work changes kinetic energy!

  4. Work- Kinetic Energy Equation W = ΔKE W = KEf – KEi Fd = ½mVf2 – ½mVi2

  5. Work- Kinetic Energy Equation W = ΔKE Fd ½mVf2 ½mVi2 KEf – KEi

  6. Problem Solving1. Medium (-) “Step by Step A 500kg car is pushed from rest with a force of 400N, if the car reaches a final velocity of 10m/s, how far is it pushed? m = 500kg Vi =0m/s F = 400N Vf = 10m/s d = ? c. Find the work done on the car. d. Find the distance the car moves. W = KEf - KEi • a. Find the initial kinetic energy. • Find the final kinetic energy. W = 25000J – 0J KEi = ½ mVi2 W = 25000J KEi = 0 J KEf = ½ mVf2 W = Fd KEf = ½ (500kg)(10m/s)2 25000J = (400N)d KEf = ½ (500kg)(100m2/s2) 62.5m = d KEf = 25000 J

  7. 2. Medium A 30kg baby carriage is pushed from rest for 2.5m with a force of 2900N, how far was it pushed if it reached a final velocity of 4m/s? Fd = ½mVf2 – ½mVi2 m = 30kg 2900N(d) = ½(30kg)(4m/s)2 – ½(30kg)(0m/s)2 Vi = 0m/s 2900N(d) = ½(30kg)(16m2/s2) – 0 J F = 2900N d = ? 2900N(d) = 240kgm2/s2 – 0 J Vf = 4m/s 2900N(d) = 240J d = 0.0828m

  8. 3. Medium A 65kg boy is skating with a velocity of 5m/s, if he pushes himself to slow down for a distance of 4m and reaches a final velocity of 2m/s, what force did he apply? Fd = ½mVf2 – ½mVi2 m = 65kg F(4m) = ½(65kg)(2m/s)2 – ½(65kg)(5m/s)2 Vi = 5m/s F(4m) = ½(65kg)(4m2/s2)– ½(65kg)(25m2/s2) d = 4m F(4m) = 130kgm2/s2 – 813kgm2/s2 Vf = 2m/s F(4m)= -683J F= ? F = 171 N

  9. 4. Medium + A 45kg shopping cart is pushed from rest for 5m with a force of 300N, how fast is it going after? Fd = ½mVf2 – ½mVi2 m = 45kg (300N)(5m)=½(45kg)Vf2 -(45kg)(0m/s)2 Vi = 0m/s 1500J = 22.5kgVf2 – 0 J d = 5m 1500J = 22.5kgVf2 F = 300N 66.6m2/s2 = Vf2 Vf = ? 8.16m/s = Vf
