Is defined as the product of the applied force and the displacement of an object in the direction of the applied force.
Work W Unit = Force x = F X displacement S
= N m @ J (joule)
F = 10 N
S=2m
F = 5N
S = 1m
Sometimes the object does not move in the direction of the applied force.To calculate the work done by the force, the component of the applied force in the direction of the displacement is used.
Since the object is displaced horizontally, the horizontal component of force is used.
Fy = F sin F
Work = F cos x S
Fx = F cos
is the angel between Applied force F, and displacement , s !!!!
S W = F cos
example F = 40 N 50 rock
What is the work done in pulling the rock? Solution:
S = 6m
Fy = Fsin 50
Fx = F cos 50 S
W = F cos
A person exerts a vertical force F = 20N on a pail as the pail is carried a horizontal distance of 8.0 m at constant speed.How much work does F do?
F
= 90 , F = 20N , S = 8m Work , W = F Cos W = 20 Cos 90 =0J No work is done by the vertical force because it has no component in the direction of motion.
( because is 0)
S= 2m
F = 10 N
= - 10 N
Now F and s are in opposite direction.Therefore the work done is negative.

From the graph, Eg: Work = area under the graph W = FS = (20)(6) = 60 J
Gravitional potential Energy The energy of an object Due to its higher position
Energy Transfer
Change of Kinetic Energy = work done Change of potential Energy= work done
1) What is the kinetic energy of man 50kg jogging at a velocity of 3 m/s? Kinetic Energy, Ek = 1/2mv = ( 50) (3) = 225 J
2) A trolley with mass 4.0 kg pulled by force 20N along horizontal frictionless track. (a) What is the kinetic energy of a trolley after it pulled 10 m away? (b) Calculate its vellocity after moved 10m.
Example 1: A book of mass 2.0 kg rests on a table. If its gravitational potential energy is 0 Joules now, what will its gravitational potential energy be when it is raised 1.0 meter above the table?
Solution: m = 2.0 kg, h = 1.0 m, g = 10 m/s2 GPE = mgh = (2.0 kg)(10 m/s2)(1.0 m) = 20 Joules

POWER
Power is defined as the rate at which work is done or the amount of work done per second. Power = Work done Time taken
P=W t The SI unit of power is Watt (W) or Js-1 When work is done, the object gains energy, therefore Power = Change in energy Time taken
P=E

P=E t
P=W t
