Topics in Work and Energy

1

Work

  • Scientific definition of work differs from everyday usage of the term
  • Two conditions must be satisfied for work to be done: (1) A force must act on an object, (2) The object must be displaced
  • Work is done only when displacement occurs in the direction of applied force
2

Energy and Its Forms

  • Energy is the capacity to do work
  • Object with energy can exert force on another object and cause displacement
  • Energy is measured in the same unit as work (Joule)
3

Kinetic Energy

  • Kinetic energy is possessed by objects in motion
  • Faster moving objects have more kinetic energy
  • Kinetic energy depends on both mass and velocity of the object
4

Potential Energy

  • Potential energy is stored energy due to position or configuration
  • Gravitational potential energy depends on height above reference level
  • Reference level (zero potential energy) can be chosen arbitrarily
