2. Work and Energy: Forms and Changes

3. What is Work? Remember that a force is a push or a pull. Work requires both force and motion Remember that a force is a push or a pull. Work requires both force and motion – is force applied through a distance –Work is force applied through a distance –If you push against the desk and nothing moves, then you haven't done any work

4. Work There are two conditions that have to be satisfied for work to be done on an object There are two conditions that have to be satisfied for work to be done on an object –1. The applied force must make the object move –2. The movement must be in the same direction as the applied force Work requires both force AND motion Work requires both force AND motion

5. Calculating Work The amount of work done depends on the amount of force exerted and the distance over which the force is applied The amount of work done depends on the amount of force exerted and the distance over which the force is applied Work (N-m or Joule) = F (N) x d (m) where d is distance moved in the direction of the force Work (N-m or Joule) = F (N) x d (m) where d is distance moved in the direction of the force One newton-meter is equal to one joule so the unit of work is a joule One newton-meter is equal to one joule so the unit of work is a joule

6. Weight is a Force! Remember that weight is a force caused by your mass and gravity Remember that weight is a force caused by your mass and gravity –F gravity = mg –To lift something you have to exert a force to overcome this force of gravity, so you are doing work on that object

7. When is Work Done? Give a book a push and it slides along a table for a distance of 1 m before it stops Give a book a push and it slides along a table for a distance of 1 m before it stops –You did work on the book only while your hand was in contact with it Lift books and your arms apply a force upward to move them, and because the force and distance are in the same direction, your arms have done work on the books Lift books and your arms apply a force upward to move them, and because the force and distance are in the same direction, your arms have done work on the books Carry books while walking, and your arms are not doing work.
