14.1 Work and Power

When does a force do work?In science, work is the product of force and distance.

What Is Work?

Copy the table on pg. 412 at the top under “Reading Strategy” to use while viewing the following presentation.

14.1 Work and Power

Work is done when a force acts on an object in the direction the object moves.

Example: Work is done when the weightlifter exerts an upward force to raise the barbell.

What Is Work?

Figure 1

14.1 Work and Power

The weight lifter applies a large force to hold the barbell over his head.

Because the barbell is motionless, no work is done on the barbell. Figure 1

14.1 Work and Power

For a force to do work on an object, some of the force must act in the same direction as the object moves. If there is no movement, no work is done.

What Is Work?

Any part of a force that does not act in the direction of motion does no work on an object.

14.1 Work and Power

Work Requires MotionThe weight lifter does no work on the barbell as he holds it over his head. The force applied to the barbell does not cause it to move.

What Is Work?

14.1 Work and Power

Work Depends on Direction• If all of the force acts in the same

direction as the motion, all of the force does work.

• If part of the applied force acts in the direction of motion, that part of the force does work.

• If none of the force is applied in the direction of the motion, the force does no work.

What Is Work?

Calculating Work

W = F x d

14.1 Work and Power

Units of WorkWhen using SI units in the work formula, the force is in newtons, and distance is in meters.

The joule (J) is the SI unit of work. A joule is equal to 1 newton-meter.

Calculating Work

14.1 Work and Power

Using the Work Formula - RECORDA weight lifter raises a 1600-newton barbell to a height of 2.0 meters.

• Work = Force × Distance• Work = 1600 N × 2.0 m• Work = 3200 N·m = 3200 J

Calculating Work

14.1 Work and Power

How are work and power related?Power is the rate of doing work.

What Is Power?

Doing work at a faster rate requires more power. To increase power, you can increase the amount of work done in a given time, or you can do the same amount of work in less time.

14.1 Work and Power

Work is required to move snow from one location to another. A person using a shovel and a person using a snow blower can both do the work needed to remove the snow.

The snow blower can do the job much faster because it has more power.

What Is Power?

14.1 Work and Power

Because the snow blower can remove more snow in less time, it requires more power than hand shoveling does.

What Is Power?

14.1 Work and Power

Calculating Power

P = W/t

14.1 Work and Power

When using SI units in the power formula, work is measured in joules (J), and time is measured in seconds (s).

The SI unit of power is the watt (W), which is equal to one joule per second.

Calculating Power

14.1 Work and Power

Calculating PowerYou exert a vertical force of 72 newtons to lift a box to a height of 1.0 meter in a time of 2.0 seconds. How much power is used to lift the box?

Look Back and CheckIs your answer reasonable?

36 watts is not a lot of power, which seems reasonable considering the box was lifted slowly, through a height of only 1 meter.

Calculating Power

14.1 Work and Power

1. Your family is moving to a new apartment. While lifting a box 1.5 m straight up to put it on a truck, you exert an upward force of 200 N for 1.0 s. How much power is required to do this?

Calculating Power

1. Your family is moving to a new apartment. While lifting a box 1.5 m straight up to put it on a truck, you exert an upward force of 200 N for 1.0 s. How much power is required to do this?

Answer: Work = Force × Distance =

200 N × 1.5 m = 300 J

Power = Work/Time = 300 J/1.0 s = 300 W

Calculating Power

14.1 Work and Power

2. You lift a book from the floor to a bookshelf 1.0 m above the ground. How much power is used if the upward force is 15.0 N and you do the work in 2.0 s?

Calculating Power

14.1 Work and Power

2. You lift a book from the floor to a bookshelf 1.0 m above the ground. How much power is used if the upward force is 15.0 N and you do the work in 2.0 s?

Answer: Work = Force × Distance =

15 N × 1.0 m = 15 J

Power = Work/Time = 15 J/2.0 s = 7.5 W

Calculating Power

14.1 Work and Power

3. You apply a horizontal force of 10.0 N to pull a wheeled suitcase at a constant speed of 0.5 m/s across flat ground. How much power is used? (Hint: The suitcase moves 0.5 m/s. Consider how much work the force does each second and how work is related to power.)

3. You apply a horizontal force of 10.0 N to pull a wheeled suitcase at a constant speed of 0.5 m/s across flat ground. How much power is used? (Hint: The suitcase moves 0.5 m/s. Consider how much work the force does each second and how work is related to power.)

Answer: Work = Force × Distance = 10.0 N × 0.5 m = 5 JPower = Work/Time = 5 J/1.0 s = 5 W

Calculating Power

14.1 Work and Power

Another common unit of power is the horsepower. One horsepower (hp) is equal to about 746 watts.

James Watt (1736-1819) was looking for a way to compare the power outputs of steam engines he had designed.

Horses were a logical choice for comparison as they were the most commonly used source of power in the 1700s.

James Watt and Horsepower

14.1 Work and Power

The horse-drawn plow and the gasoline-powered engine are both capable of doing work at a rate of four horsepower.
