Yesterday’s Learning Goal:
I can define energy and can tell the difference between work and power.
Energy is the mover and changer of the matterWork is the amount of force needed to move an object a certain distancePower is the rate at which work is done

Homework Review
• Work is a measure of energy
• Work is only done when an object is moving
• Work is a vector which means it has an amount and a direction
• Negative work means the object is moving backwards or the force is pushing back

Homework Review
Units:
Work is Joules (J)
Power is Watts (W)
Formulas:
Work = force x distance
Power = work / time

Types of Energy
Potential Energy(PE)
“Stored” energy because of position, shape or state
Potential to do work
8
Types of Potential Energy
The water at the top of thewaterfall is an example ofGravitational PE
The energy stored in food is an example of Chemical PE
The energy is a compressed spring is Elastic PE
Other types: Electromagnetic and Nuclear
9
Calculating Gravitational PE
Work = Force x Distance
For P.E.
Force = Force due to gravity (Weight)
= Mass x 10 (N/km)
Distance = Height
10
Potential Energy Example
Which has more Potential Energy?
A B C
3 m
Each ball weighs 10 N
PE (work) is the same for all 3 3 m x 10 N = 30 J
11
CHECK YOUR NEIGHBOR
Does a car hoisted for an oil change in a service station have PE?
How much work will raise the car twice as high? Three times as high?
How much more PE will it have in these cases?
12
CHECK YOURSELF
Suppose you were to drop a bowling ball on your toe—first from a distance of 1 mm above your toe.
How would that feel?
What about 1 meters?
What about 5 meters?
13
CHECK YOURSELF
Each time, the bowling ball would do more work on your toe, because it would have more gravitational potential energy when released.
14
Learning Goal Check
How do you feel about Potential Energy?
Could you explain Potential Energy to your friends or family?
16
What is Kinetic Energy?
How much potential energy does A have?
What about B?
Does B have energy?
A
B
17
Kinetic Energy
Kinetic Energy (KE) is the energy associated with a moving object
A
B
D
C
A = all PE B =all KE C=PE & KE D=all PE
An object can have PE & KE!
18
Kinetic Energy
Energy can be transferred from one object to another.
Energy can change from between PE and KE.
KE to PEPE to KE
19
Calculating Kinetic Energy
The KE of an object depends on its mass and speed
KE = ½ mass x speed2 = 1/2mv2
Note: KE is also a measure of work so the unit is Joules!
20
Kinetic Energy Example
A car moving along a road has kinetic energy. How much more KE will a car that is twice as heavy have?
Car 1 Mass = 100 kgSpeed = 10 m/s
KE = ½(100)(10)2
KE = 5000 J
Car 2 Mass = 200 kgSpeed = 10 m/s
KE = ½(200)(10)2
KE = 10000 J
21
CHECK YOURSELF
When the brakes of a car are locked, the car skids to a stop. How much farther will the car skid if it’s moving 3 times as fast?
Car Slow Mass = 100 kgSpeed = 10 m/s
KE = ½(100)(10)2
KE = 5000 J
Car Fast Mass = 100 kgSpeed = 30 m/s
KE = ½(100)(30)2
KE = 45000 J
9 times the work = 9 times the distance!

Formula Review
Velocity = distance / time
Force = mass x acceleration
Momentum = mass x velocity
Impulse = force x time
Work = force x distance
Power = work / time
PE = mass x 10 x height
KE = ½ mass x velocity2
