WorkTo understand WORK – we must understand

forceForce

An interaction between objects that is capable of changing the objects state of motion (rest/moving)

F=ma

Energy

Force Work Power Energy F=ma

m=F/aa=F/m

Energy

Work (Mechanical)A function of force and distance

Application of a force to an object and the distance the object moves

W = F x dUnit of measurement – foot pound (ft lb)

Energy

Force Work Power Energy F=ma W=Fd

Energy

Important criteria for Work:1. Something must move2. Movement must be in the same

direction as the direction of the force Push, pull, lift, etc.

3. Time is not a function of work

Energy

PowerDefined as the amount of work done over

a period of time.Force, distance, & timeDecrease the time – increase the power

Horsepower550 ft lb/s

Energy

Force Work Power Energy F=ma W=Fd P=W/t

Energy

EnergyDefined as the ability to do work

Potential energyEnergy at rest

Fig 3.6 (p. 67)Kinetic Energy

Energy in motionDefined in terms of

Work done to put the object in motionWork done on coming to rest
