1 Name: Physics 670 Date: / / Review (Key): Work, Energy, Power Work 1. What are the two important variables for work? (hint: look at the equation!) The important variables for work are distance and force. 2. Is work done in the following situations? A. Is work done if you lift a 2 N book straight up 2 meters at a constant speed? Yes, work is done because the force and the movement are in the same direction. B. Is work done if you pull a wagon 20 meters with a force of 10 N? Yes, work is done because the force and the movement are in the same direction. C. Is work done if you spend 5 hours studying for a quiz? No, work is not done; there is no movement. D. Is work done if you carry a 5 N tray a horizontal distance of 10 meters at a constant speed? No, work is not done because the applied force is not in the same direction as the motion of the tray. E. Is work done if you push as hard as you can against a cement wall for two minutes but it doesn t move? Yes, work is done because the force and the movement are in the same direction. 3. How much work is done if you push a crate with a constant force of 20 N for 10 meters? F = 20 N d = 10 m W =? W = F d W = W = 200 J Page 1 of 8

2 4. How much work is done if you carry a 10 N box a horizontal distance of 25 meters? Power No work is done because the force is not in the same direction as movement of the box. 5. Who is more powerful: someone who can do 100 J of work in 5 seconds or someone who can do 100 J of work in 50 seconds? Explain. Someone who can do 100 J of work in 5 seconds is more powerful because he does the same work in less time (he is faster). 6. Who is more powerful: someone who can do 10 J of work in 10 seconds or someone who can do 100 J of work in 10 seconds? Someone who can do 100 J of work in 10 seconds is more powerful because he does more work in the same amount of time. 7. What is your power output if you can do 600 J of work in 15 seconds? W = 600 J t = 15 s P =? P = W t P = P = 40 W Page 2 of 8

What does kinetic energy depend upon? (choose between: speed or height) Kinetic energy depends on the speed of the object. 12. What does potential energy depend upon? (choose between: speed or height) Potential energy depends on the height of the object. 13. Can an object that is at rest have energy? Give an example to support your answer. An object that is at rest can have energy. For example, a book at rest on top of a table has gravitational potential energy. 14. What kind of energy does an apple that is hanging (at rest) in a tree have? An apple that is hanging in a tree has gravitational potential energy. 15. What kind of energy does an apple that has fallen out of a tree have just before it hits the ground? The apple has kinetic energy just before it hits the ground. Page 3 of 8

4 16. Which has more potential energy: a 25 N kitten that is sitting on the counter 1 m above the ground or a 50 N cat who is also 1 m above the ground? The 50 N cat who is 1 m above the ground has more potential energy because he is heavier. 17. Which has more potential energy: a 50 N cat that is 1 m above the ground or a 50 N cat who has climbed a tree and is 10 m above the ground? The 50 N cat who is 10 m above the ground has more potential energy because he is higher. 18. Find the equation for kinetic energy on your MCAS formula sheet and copy it into the space below: KE = 1 2 mv2 19. Which has more kinetic energy: a mouse who is running at 2 m/s or a cat who is running at 2 m/s? The cat who is running at 2 m/s has more kinetic energy because he has more mass. 20. Which has more kinetic energy: a 5 kg cat who is walking at 1 m/s or a 5 kg cat who is running at 3 m/s? The cat who is moving at 3 m/s has more kinetic energy because he is moving faster.
