WORK AND ENERGY

  • Presented by: Group 4

INTRODUCTION

  • Overview of key concepts: Work, Energy, Conservation of Energy, and Power in Mechanical Systems

PRINCIPLE OF WORK

What is Work?

  • Definition: Work is the application of force across a distance.

  • Energy expended when an object is moved against a resisting force.

  • Fundamental concept crucial to physics and engineering, with broader implications.

How Do We Apply the Principle of Work?

  • Force and Displacement:

    • Work requires a force causing an object to move; without movement, no work is done even if force is applied.

  • Direction of Force Matters:

    • The force must align with the direction of displacement for work to be done.

    • Only the component of the force in the direction of motion contributes to work when at an angle.

Formula of the Principle of Work

  • Work (W) is measured in joules (J)

  • Force (F) is measured in newtons (N)

  • Distance (d) is measured in meters (m)

  • Formula: W = F × d × cos(θ)

    • θ: Angle between the force and motion direction in degrees.

PRINCIPLE OF ENERGY

What is Energy?

  • Definition: Energy is the capacity of objects or substances to perform work or create changes in the environment.

  • Two Types of Energy:

    • Kinetic Energy

    • Potential Energy

What is Kinetic Energy?

  • Definition: Energy possessed by a moving object.

  • Factors: Speed (velocity), mass impact energy - faster or heavier = more kinetic energy.

  • Formula:

    • KE = ( \frac{1}{2} mv^2 )

    • KE = Kinetic energy (in joules, J)

    • m = Mass (in kilograms, kg)

    • v = Velocity (in meters per second, m/s)

What is Potential Energy?

  • Definition: Energy an object holds due to its position, state, or configuration.

  • Related to object’s capacity to do work based on location or structure.

  • Example: Falling object or released compressed spring releases potential energy.

Formula of Potential Energy

  • Gravitational Potential Energy Formula:

    • PE_gravitational = mgh

    • PE = Gravitational potential energy (in joules, J)

    • m = Mass (in kg)

    • g = Acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s² on Earth)

    • h = Height above reference point (in meters, m)

CONSERVATION OF ENERGY

What is Conservation of Energy?

  • Principle: Energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be transformed from one type to another.

  • Examples include:

    • Falling objects

    • Roller coasters

    • Bouncing balls

PRINCIPLE OF POWER IN MECHANICAL SYSTEMS

What is Power in Mechanical Systems?

  • Definition: Power measures the rate of doing work; a result of force and motion.

  • Power can be expressed as the product of force and velocity or torque and angular velocity.

Formula of Mechanical Systems

  • General Formula:

    • P = W / t

      • P = Power (in Watts, W)

      • W = Work done (in Joules, J)

      • t = Time taken (in seconds, s)

  • Force and Velocity:

    • P = F × v

      • F = Force applied (in Newtons, N)

      • v = Velocity (in meters per second, m/s)

  • Torque and Angular Velocity (Rotational Systems):

    • P = T × w

      • T = Torque (in Newton-meters, Nm)

      • w = Angular velocity (in radians per second, rad/s)
