1 Work and Power Work – force is applied to an object and the object moves in the direction as the applied force Work = Force x distance W = F x d **Work is zero when an object is not moving

2 Measuring Work Joules – SI Units 1 J= 1 N x m = 1kg x m2 / s2

3 Power Power – the rate at which work is done, or how much work is done in a given amount of time Power = work/time P = W/t Watts – SI units 1 W = 1 J of work in 1 second.

4 Machines & Mechanical Advantage
How do Machines make work easier? Change size of an input force change the direction of the force decrease distance over which force is applied this is – multiplying the force mech. Adv. = output force/input force = input distance/output dist.

5 Mechanical Advantage output force/input force, or input distance/output dist No units – expressed as a number ** a machine that has a mechanical advantage greater than one multiplies the input force. ** a machine with mechanical advantage less than one increases distance and speed. Can this occur?

6 Momentum Momentum = mass x velocity P = m v, v = P/m, m=P/v
P – momentum M – mass V – velocity (speed + direction) SI units – kg m/s Momentum has direction...indicated by velocity

7 Momentum Momentum increases as mass and velocity increase
If an object’s velocity is zero, it’s momentum is zero Decreasing an objects Momentum will decrease it’s Force

8 Conservation of Momentum
The total amount of momentum in an isolated system is conserved. Momentum is transferred from one object to another in a given collision. Total momentum before objects collide equals the total momentum after the collision.

9 Impulse The effect of a net force acting on an object (a kind of "moving force") The product of the average net force acting on an object and its duration. J = F Δt Impulse–momentum theorem - the change in momentum of an object equals the impulse applied to it
