4 Power Power the rate of energy transfer to a system or the rate of work done on a system. The average power is defined as P = W t Unit: the Watt. 1 J/s = 1 W P = F v

If the hill is inclined at an angle of 5.00, the mass of the car is 1500 kg, the force of friction is 100 N, the force of air resistance is 150 N, and v = 15 m/s, what power must be delivered by the engine?

Hence, W BC = -mgh and W DA = mgh. As a result, the total work done by gravity is zero: Forces (like gravity) that behave W total = 0 this + 1-mgh2 way + are 0 + mgh called = 0 conservative forces. With friction, the results are quite different. If we push the box around the

Work done by friction th is nonzero e by friction when an hrough a distance d is s, the total work done by osed path is nonzero. In qual to - 4 m k mgd. W total = 1-m k mgd2 + 1-m k mgd2 + 1-m k mgd2 + 1-m k mgd2 = -4 m k mgd These results lead to the following definition of a conservative force: D W = µ k mgd f k C Top View f k W = µ k mgd W = µ k mgd f k d f k A B W = µ k mgd d Forces (like friction) where the work done over a closed path is not zero are called nonconservative forces.

10 The differences between conservative and nonconservative forces are even more Nonconservative apparent if we consider moving Forces: an object Friction around a closed path. Consider, for example, the path shown in Figure 8 3. If we move a box of mass m along this path, The the total work work done by gravity kineticis friction the sum of isthe always work done negative. on each segment of the path; that is W total = W AB + W BC + W CD + W DA. The work done by gravity from A to B and from C to D is zero, since the force is at right angles to the displacement on these segments. Thus C, gravity does negative work (displacement and force are in opposite directions), Kinetic friction points in Wthe opposite direction to the velocity / AB = W CD = 0. On the segment from B to instantaneous displacement. Work = k mgd k N k N mg N d FIGURE 8 2 Pushing a box against frictio When the box comes to rest work. Friction W fric = f k d = µ k Nd where d is the distance the object moves along the surface.

11 Nonconservative Forces: Friction Air resistance is another nonconservative force. When a force does negative work on a system, energy is transferred out of the system. In the case of kinetic friction, this energy increases the temperature of the two surfaces that rub on each other, and may also leave as sound waves. This energy is lost to the system, but not to the universe.

12 Nonconservative Forces: Friction Example Calculate the work done by friction as a 3.2-kg box is slid along a entifies floor problems from of biological point A or to medical point interest. B along Red paths bullets 1, (,, ) 2, and 3. are Assume used that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor is s is, 2, m 1.0 m 1.0 m 4.0 m 1.0 m 1.0 m B 2.0 m A 2.0 m m 1.0 m 3.0 m 3 Top View FIGURE 8 18 Problem 2 1 Walker, Ch 8, prob.

13 distance is h, the work you do on the box is W = mgh. If you now release the box and allow it to drop back to the floor, gravity does the same work, in the process gives the box an equivalent amount of kinetic energy. Conservative Forces: Work Done Lifting W = mgh, a Box and Work done by person (applied force) W = Fd cos(0 ) = mgh. Work done by person = mgh Work done by gravity = mgh FIGURE 8 Lifting a bo stant speed box is releas work on the conservativ h Contrast Whenthis box with falls, the force this energy of kinetic becomes friction, which kinetic is nonconservative. energy. To slide a box of mass m across the floor with constant speed, as shown in Figure 8 2, you must Wexert net = a mgh force of = magnitude K. m k N = m k mg. After sliding the box a distance d, the work you have done is W = m k mgd. In this case, when you release the box it simply stays put friction does no work on it after you let go. Thus, the work

Conservative Forces: Potential Energy Work done by person = mgh Work done by gravity = mgh FIGURE 8 Lifting a bo stant speed box is releas work on the conservativ h Contrast this with the force of kinetic friction, which is nonconservative. To slide a box of mass m across the floor with constant speed, as shown in Figure 8 2, you must exert a force of magnitude m k N = m k mg. After sliding the box a distance energy. d, the work you have done is W = m k mgd. In this case, when you release the box it simply stays put friction does no work on it after you let go. Thus, the work done by a nonconservative force cannot be recovered later as kinetic energy; instead, it is converted to other forms of energy, such as a slight warming of the When the box is in the air, it has the potential to have kinetic The man put in work lifting it, as long as the box is held in the air, this energy is stored.

15 Conservative Forces: Potential Energy Any box that has been lifted a height h has had the same work done on it: mgh. The path the box took to get to that height doesn t matter. This is because gravity is a conservative force.

16 Conservative Forces: Potential Energy Any box that has been lifted a height h has had the same work done on it: mgh. The path the box took to get to that height doesn t matter. This is because gravity is a conservative force. For any conservative force acting on an object, we can say that the object has some amount of stored energy that depends on its configuration.

17 Conservative Forces: Potential Energy Any box that has been lifted a height h has had the same work done on it: mgh. The path the box took to get to that height doesn t matter. This is because gravity is a conservative force. For any conservative force acting on an object, we can say that the object has some amount of stored energy that depends on its configuration. Potential energy energy that system has as a result of its configuration. Is always the result of the effect of a conservative force.

18 Potential Energy Potential energy energy that system has as a result of its configuration. Is always the result of the effect of a conservative force. Only conservative forces can have associated potential energies! If a nonconservative force acts, any work done to displace the system (at constant velocity) leaves the system again as heat and sound. That energy isn t stored no potential energy.

19 Gravitational Potential Energy The change of potential energy when lifting an object of mass m near the Earth s surface: U = mg( h) If we choose the convention that U = 0 at the Earth s surface, then an object (mass m) at a height h has gravitational potential energy: U = mgh

20 Gravitational Potential Energy The change of potential energy when lifting an object of mass m near the Earth s surface: U = mg( h) One technical point: in order for a box to be at one height or another, we need the Earth (which creates the gravitational force on the box) to be part of our system description.

The configuration of the system refers to how close the box is to center of the Earth. To have a potential energy, we must include the Earth in the system and make the weight of the box an internal force.

26 Spring Force: Another Conservative Force The spring force is also a conservative force. If we stretch a spring, we can say that the spring stores the energy. That energy is converted to kinetic energy when the end of the spring is released.

That energy is converted to kinetic energy when the end of the spring is released. There is also spring potential energy! Choosing U = 0 when the spring is at its natural length (relaxed): U = 1 2 kx 2 (The spring must be part of our system.)
