Bellwork • What is the conservation of energy? • Lab due tomorrow (Fri. 1/17/14) • Energy can not be created or destroyed, but it can be transformed from one form to another, the total amount never changes.
Mechanical Energy • If there are no non-mechanical energies involved in a system, then mechanical energy can transform from one energy to another. PEint + KEint = PEfinal + KEfinal
PE = 10000 J KE = 0 J PE = 7500 J KE = ? PE = 5000 J KE = ? PE = 2500 J KE = ? PE = 0 J KE = ? PE = 10000 J KE = 0 J PE = 7500 J KE = 2500 J PE = 5000 J KE = 5000 J PE = 2500 J KE = 7500 J PE = 0 J KE = 10000 J
Mechanical and Non Mechanical Energies • If there are non-mechanical energies involved in a system, energy is still conserved. PEint + KEint = PEfinal + KEfinal + TE (on formula card) Used in the lab!
Conservation of Energy • For objects falling or going down a hill • Gravitational potential energy is being transferred into kinetic energy and thermal energy (if friction and air resistance is accounted for) PEint + KEint = PEfinal + KEfinal + TE
Equation • Work and Kinetic Energy
Egg Drop Project • Work • Potential Energy (top) • Kinetic Energy (bottom) no TE • Velocity (bottom) • Momenta (bottom) • Force (bottom) • Power to stop the egg • Time (max) to stop the egg
Egg Drop Project • Catchers due next Tues. 1/21/14! • Bring in, store bought, raw eggs if you want multiple tries. • You can not modify the egg (face okay)
Calendar Ahead • Fri. 1/17 – Lab Due • Tues. 1/21 – Egg Catchers Due • Thur. 1/23 – H.W. Assignment Due • Mon. 1/27 – Egg Project Analysis Due • Wed. 1/29 – Test Review Due • Thur. 1/30 – Energy Test Part 1 • Fri. 1/31 – Energy Test Part 2
Today • Finish the lab • Work on the homework assignment • Work on project analysis
