1. Power and Efficiency Power = work done (or energy change) / time interval Two cars accelerate from rest to highway speed One does it in five seconds (Porsche) One does it in ten seconds (4 cylinder SUV) Which uses more power? Efficiency = useful energy output / Total Energy Input At best 30-35% of the Chemical Energy in gas => Moving a car Car engines are at best 30-35% Efficient Electric motors can have efficiencies approaching 99% Slide 10-23

2. Energy And Real Life Tour de France A Tour de France bicycle racer needs to eat 8000 calories per day to maintain their weight. About 65-70% of this energy is used to maintain body temperature. Bow and Arrows About 60-75% of the PE in a drawn bow goes into the KE of an Arrow. The rest of the energy heats the bow. Guns and Bullets Only about 30% of the energy in a firearms discharge is transferred to the projectiles they fire Slide 10-23
