BIG IDEAS1

Energy

Momentum Conservation Law

Energy is always constant, therefore…

Total Energy Before = Total Energy After

KEi + PEi + Work = KEf + PEf + Heat

Momentum is always constant, therefore…

Total Momentum Before = Total Momentum After

m1v1i +m2v2i = m1v1f + m2v2f

Theorem

Work-Energy Theorem

Work = ∆Energy

Fd = ∆(energy)

Impulse-Momentum Theorem

Impulse = ∆Momentum

Ft = ∆(mv)

Energy Types: Kinetic (Motion) – 1/2mv2 Gravitational Potential – mgh Spring Potential – 1/2kx2 Sound, Light, Nuclear, etc… Work = Fdcosθ – If force is perpendicular to distance, that force does NO WORK! Power = Energy Converted/time = Work/time

(A, B, C, etc.) • The graphs should be accurately labeled with the type(s) of energy involved. 1. A ball is held above the ground, and then is dropped so it falls straight down. (The last picture is the moment BEFORE the ball hits the ground.) 2. A wind-up toy is wound up, then "walks" across a table and comes to a stop. 3.

did he do in this situation? 3) The now sweaty squirrel holds his 15N weight over his head. While keeping the weight above his head, he runs a

100m dash in 22 seconds. How much work did he do? 4) Returning back, Nutty starts his stair workout. If his mass is 1kg, and each flight of stairs is 4 meters, then how much

work does he do in each situation: a- run up two flights of stairs. b- run up three flights, then back down one. c- run up three flights of stairs. 5) A very tired Squirrel of 1kg mass begins to do pushups to elevate himself .05m. How many pushups should he do to
