Kinetic and Potential Energy
There are two basic forms of energy. Kinetic energy is an energy of motion Gravitational potential energy is an energy of position The sum K + Ug is not changed when an object is in freefall. Its initial and final values are equal
7
Energy Units SI: joule (J)
Other popular units: calorie, Calorie, BTU (British Thermal Unit), foot-pound, erg, electron-volt, kilowatt-hour (kWh), therm, Hartree, Rydberg…
8
Kinetic and Potential Energy
IMPORTANT: The potential energy ONLY depends on the height, even if the object moves along a ramp, hill, etc.
9
The Zero of Potential Energy
You can place the origin of your coordinate system, and thus the “zero of potential energy,” wherever you choose and be assured of getting the correct answer to a problem. The reason is that only ΔU has physical significance, not Ug itself.

Conservation of Mechanical Energy
The sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energy of a system is called the mechanical energy. Here, K is the total kinetic energy of all the particles in the system and U is the potential energy stored in the system. The kinetic energy and the potential energy can change, as they are transformed back and forth into each other, but their sum remains constant.

The lawyer’s question cannot be answered from the given information
Preparing his case for trial, a lawyer pondered this question. A 1-N flowerpot fell one meter from a shelf and struck his client squarely on the head. How much force did the pot exert on his client’s head? 1 N 4.9 N 9.8 N 19.6 N The lawyer’s question cannot be answered from the given information Answer: C © 1997 Lewis Carroll Epstein

Hooke’s Law If you stretch a rubber band, a force appears that tries to pull the rubber band back to its equilibrium, or unstretched, length. A force that restores a system to an equilibrium position is called a restoring force. If s is the position of the end of a spring, and se is the equilibrium position, we define Δs = s – se. If (Fsp)s is the s-component of the restoring force, and k is the spring constant of the spring, then Hooke’s Law states that The minus sign is the mathematical indication of a restoring force.

Elastic Potential Energy
Consider a before-and-after situation in which a spring launches a ball. The compressed spring has “stored energy,” which is then transferred to the kinetic energy of the ball. We define the elastic potential energy Us of a spring to be

Impulse is a force that is applied at a random time.
a force that is applied very suddenly. the area under the force curve in a force-versus-time graph. the time interval that a force lasts. Answer: C
27
The total momentum of a system is conserved
always. if the system is isolated. if the forces are conservative. never; it’s just an approximation. Answer: B
28
In an inelastic collision,
impulse is conserved. momentum is conserved. force is conserved. energy is conserved. elasticity is conserved. Answer: B

Elastic Collisions
32
Elastic Collisions Consider a head-on, perfectly elastic collision of a ball of mass m1 having initial velocity (vix)1, with a ball of mass m2 that is initially at rest. The balls’ velocities after the collision are (vfx)1 and (vfx)2.These are velocities, not speeds, and have signs. Ball 1, in particular, might bounce backward and have a negative value for (vfx)1.

The Equations for Elastic collisions
These do not appear on the equation sheet but should be used for homework. I will provide these separately for the next exam (on the board).

Energy Diagrams A graph showing a system’s potential energy and total energy as a function of position is called an energy diagram.
37
Energy Diagrams The kinetic energy is the difference between the total energy (TE) and the potential energy (PE).

Energy diagrams are commonly used in chemistry. E. g
Energy diagrams are commonly used in chemistry. E.g. molecular vibrations. The different vibrational energy levels (v= 0,1,2…) are different average kinetic energy levels of the molecule. Most molecular bonds are approximately “springs” for the lowest vibrational energy levels.
