We therefore define the gravitational potential energy: y1

20. Gravitational Potential Energy

22. Systems and Energy Conservation
The sum of the changes in the kinetic energy and in the potential energy is zero – the kinetic and potential energy changes are equal but opposite in sign.
This allows us to define the total mechanical energy:
Talk a little bit about energy and the conservation of, thermal, electrical, demonstration with poppers

23. Systems and Energy Conservation
If there is no friction, the speed of a roller coaster will depend only on its height compared to its starting height. y

So the first hill must be the highest, unless the track has chains/magnets along the way.

24. Systems and Energy Conservation
All three of these balls have the same initial kinetic energy; as the change in potential energy is also the same for all three.
Their speeds just before they hit the bottom are the same as well.
Trace the kinetic energies of the first ball

25. Systems and Energy Conservation

Find its final speed. h v

26. Power is the rate at which work is done –
In the SI system, the units of power are watts (W):
Demonstrate with moving a book across the table
The difference between walking and running up the stairs is power – the change in gravitational potential energy is the same.

27. Power
Power is also needed for acceleration and for moving against the force of gravity.
The average power can be written in terms of the force and the average velocity: v F FR d

31. Review
Work done by a constant force is the displacement times the component of force in the direction of the displacement.
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion.
Work–energy theorem: the net work done on an object is equal to the change in its kinetic energy.
Potential energy is the energy of position or configuration.

32. Review
The total energy of the universe, or of an isolated system, is conserved.
Total mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic and potential energy. It is conserved in a conservative system.
The net work done by forces is equal to the change in the total mechanical energy.
Power is the rate at which work is done.
