1. Section 14 Work, Power, and Energy

2. More Power!!!!! What does he mean?

3. Work Work is the product of force and distance  For a force to do work on an object, the object must move in the same direction of the force  Any force that does not act in the direction of the motion is not doing work

4. Work can be calculated by the following equation: Work = Force x Distance W = F (Newtons) x D (Meters) The SI unit for work is Joules Work Equation

5. Example #1 How much work is done when raising a 1600 N barbell 2 meters? Work Equation

6. Example #2 How much work is done when pushing a box with 234 N of force and moving that box 40 meters? Work Equation

7. Power Power is the rate of doing work To increase power, you need to do more work in the same amount of time, or do the same amount of work in less time Power

8. Power = Work (Joules) Time (seconds) The SI unit for power is watts Power Equation

10. Example #3 If 45 J of work are done in 120 seconds how much power is used? Example Problems

11. Example #4 You exert a vertical force of 72 Newton's to lift a box to a height of 1.0 meter in a time of 2.0 seconds. How much power is used to lift the box? Example Problems

12. Question #1 What conditions must exist in order for a force to do work on an object? Force must act in the same direction as the object moves 14.1 Assessment

13. Question #2 What formula relates work and power? Power = Work / Time 14.1 Assessment

14. Question #3 A desk exerts an upward force to support a computer resting on it. Does this force do work? Explain. The force does no work because it acts on the computer, but it does not move, therefore no work is done. 14.1 Assessment

15. Question #4 How much work does a 25 N force do to lift a potted plant from the floor to a shelf 1.5 meters high? Work = 37.5 joules 14.1 Assessment

16. Question #5 You lift a large bag of flour from the floor to a 1 meter high counter, doing 100 joules of work in 2 seconds. How much power do you use to lift the bag of flour? Power = 50 Watts 14.1 Assessment
