Janow – Spring 2012Work and Energy - OverviewDynamics: A powerful tool but intricate, detailed, vector-basedEnergy takes many forms, for example:• Kinetic: K = ½ m v2• Potential: gravitational (U = mg∆∆∆∆h), electrostatic, magnetic, nuclear• Thermal: Random kinetic energy kBT• Chemical: Binding energies in atoms and molecules • Mass-energy: E=mc2after 1905Example: Car accelerating  ∆∆∆∆W & ∆∆∆∆K positiveCar braking  ∆∆∆∆W & ∆∆∆∆K negativeEnergy in all forms is related ultimately to mechanical work. ntDisplacemex Force Work====Work-Kinetic Energy Theorem (an energy conservation statement) KK W initfinal−−−−====∆∆∆∆Work done ON systemWork is a scalarKinetic Energy is due to a particle’s speedDefinition (traditional): Energy is the ability to do workEnergy: • Scalar  Simpler approach applicable to answering certain questions• A powerful “conservation law”Energy can not be created or destroyed – conversions onlyCopyright R. Janow – Spring 2012SystemsSystems gain or lose energy when external forces do positive or negative work on them. Isolated systems have zero net interaction with the outside world and neither gain nor lose energyA system is a small portion of the Universe• The system may contain several objects within a volume of space,…• Parts of the system can exert forces on one another• External forces can act on parts of the system as well• System boundaries are chosen arbitrarily to simplify a problem –• - they separate the system from it’s surrounding environment.ExamplesSystem is just the coinFriction, weight, normal forceAre external forcesm1m21) System is m1, m2, the cord and pulleyweights, 2) N, F, and friction are externalTension forces are internal3) Choose m1and m2as separate systems.Tension becomes external to each systemCopyright R.

Janow – Spring 2012Work Done by a Constant Force6-1: The figure shows four examples of force F applied to an object. In all four cases, the force has the same magnitude and the displacement of the object is to the right and has the same magnitude. Rank the cases in order of the work done by the force on the object, from most positive to the most
