WORK
is done when the force that is exerted produces a displacement.
- direction of F and D are parallel
- θ = 0
- ex: pushing a book across the table
case 1 work
- F and d are opposite or antiparallel
- θ = 180
- ex: friction
case 3 work
- F is perpendicular to d
- θ = 90
- carrying a book while walking
case 2 work
POWER
- rate of doing work
- Watt/W or J/S
Mechanical Energy
Energy associated with a body's position and motion
Kinetic Energy
comes from the Greek word "kinetikos" , which means "motion.
work-energy theorem
- the network done on a system is equal to the change in its kinetic energy
POTENTIAL ENERGY
- associated with the position of objects
- measured with respect to or relative to a particular reference point
GRAVITATIONAL POTENTIAL ENERGY
the energy stored in an object by virtue of its height
from the center of the Earth
- Work done by gravity when the body is moving up
- F and D are antiparallel
- Ug2 > Ug1
- W = (-)
PE CASE 1
- Work done by gravity when the body is moving down
- F and D are parallel
- Ug2 < Ug1
- W = (+)
PE case 2
Conservative force
a force for which the work done DOES NOT depend on the path, but only on the initial and final positions
ELASTIC POTENTIAL ENERGY
the energy stored in a stretched or a compressed spring.
ROTATIONAL MOTION
- motion of a body that spins about an axis.
- undergo circular motion
Translational motion
- straight line motion (horizontal, free fall, projectile motion)
arc length
the cart moved a distance s, measured from the
circumference of the circle; s is?
Radian
an angle whose arc length is equal to the radius, which is
approximately equal to 57.3 degrees.
centripetal force
inward force
TORQUE
- A quantity that measures the ability of a force to rotate an object around some axis.
- Unit: N/M
- The effect that causes an object to rotate
- turning effect of a force
lever arm
The PERPENDICULAR distance from the axisof rotation to a line drawn along the direction of the force
Moment of Inertia
- the tendency of a body rotating about a fixed axis to resist a change in rotational motion.
- measure of the object's resistance to a change in its rotational motion about some axis.
Angular Momentum
it refers to the quantity of motion that an object
has; mass in motion.
