Physics: Motion, Energy & Heat Unit II(b) – Hagebusch NEO A&M General Physical Science – PHYS 1014 Work • Work – _______________________________ _____________________________________ _____________________________________ work = _______ x ________ W = Fd • ___________ – the SI base unit of measurement for work Work • Example 3.1 – How much work is needed to lift a 5.0 kg backpack to a shelf 1.0 m above the floor? • Example 3.2 • How much work is required to lift a 50 lb box vertically a distance of 2.5 ft? Power • Power – ______________________________ _____________________________________ power = • • • P= Power is measured in units of ___________ 1 hp = 550 ft∙lb/s 1 hp = 746 W (watts) Power W t P Power • Example 3.3 – 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? • Example 3.4 • A 150 lb person runs up a 15 ft stairway in 10.0 s. What is the horsepower rating of the person? Potential Energy • Energy – ______________________________ • ____________________ – energy associated with an object position – measured in joules ( J ) gravitational potential energy = ________ x ________ PE = Potential Energy • Example 3.5 – What is the potential energy of a 2.14 kg book that is on a bookshelf 1.0 m above the floor? • Example 3.2 • How much work can a 5.00 kg mass do if it is 5.00 m above the ground? Kinetic Energy • Kinetic energy – ________________________ _____________________________________ – Ways to measure kinetic energy 1. The work _____________________________________ 2. The work _____________________________________ • measured in joules ( J ) kinetic energy = KE = Kinetic Energy • Example 3.7 – A 7.00 kg bowling ball is moving in a bowling lane with a velocity of 5.00 m/s. What is the kinetic energy of the ball. • Example 3.8 – A 100.0 kg football player moving with a velocity of 6.0 m/s tackles a stationary quarterback. How much work was done on the quarterback?

Work against _________ Work against _________ Work against _________ Work against _________ Work against _________ Increased ___________ Increased ___________ Increased ___________ Increased ___________ Energy Forms • _____________________– the form of energy associated with machines, objects in motion, and objects having potential energy due to gravity – Ex: ______________________________________ • ______________________– energy stored in the chemical bonds between atoms – Released in a reaction know as ______________ – Ex: ______________________________________ Energy Forms • _____________________– the energy that travels through space – ______________________– all forms of radiant energy that travels in the form of a wave Energy Forms • __________________________– form of energy from electromagnetic interactions • __________________________– form of energy derived from interactions of the nucleus of atoms Energy Conversion Energy Conversion • Potential energy can be converted to kinetic energy Example 3.9 • A 1.0 kg book falls from a height of 1.0 m. What is the velocity of the book just as it hits the floor? Example 3.10 • What is the kinetic energy of a 1.0 kg book just before it hits the floor after a 1.0 m fall? Energy Conservation • ____________________________________ – Energy is neither created nor destroyed. Energy can be converted from one for to another, but the total energy remains constant. Common Energy Sources • Fossil Fuels – Petroleum – Coal • • • • • Moving Water Nuclear Solar Wind Geothermal Energy Conservation • U.S. Energy Information Administration – The total primary energy use per capita in the United States in 2003 was almost identical to that in 1973 – Economic output (gross domestic product GDP) increased 74% – National energy intensity (energy used per unit of GDP) fell 43% – The energy savings was an estimated $430 billion to consumers
