CONSERVATION OF MECHANICAL ENERGY Kinetic Energy and Potential Energy

The land-speed record for a wheel-driven car is nearly 738 km/h. (recorded at the Bonneville Salt Flats on 10/18/01) If the mass of this car was approximately 1.0x10 3 kg, what was its kinetic energy? time/blogs/hotday-5390

Potential Energy (U) The amount of energy that is stored in a body A measure of how much work CAN be done Gravitational Potential Energy: the amount of work that can be done on a body as a result of its position above a reference point (in Earth’s gravitational field) E p = mgh Where m = mass (kg) g = acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m·s -2 ) And h = height (m) above reference level

The Principle of Energy Conservation The total amount of energy a body possesses will remain constant, although the type of energy may be transformed from one form to another Note: many times the energy transforms into a “useless” form, so it appears that energy has been lost…when it really hasn’t! Conservation of Mechanical Energy:

Review questions! How much energy does a 875 g flower pot have if it is on a shelf 95.0 cm above the ground? How fast is the flower pot traveling when it is 35.0 cm above the ground?

A car slides down an icy hill that has a height from top to bottom of 14.0 m. What is its speed when it hits the snow bank at the bottom of the hill?
