14 Energy Energy is a difficult concept to define, but it is very important for physics. Energy can take many different forms. Knowing the amount of energy a system has can tell us about what states or configurations we can find the system in. One way that energy is often described is that it represents the ability of a system to do work. We need to know what work is!

15 Work Work is an amount of energy. The amount of work done on an object depends on the applied force and the displacement of the object as the force acts.

16 Work we do work. The greater the force, the greater the work; the grea tance, the greater the work. These simple ideas form the basis for ou of work.! Work is an To amount be specific, of energy. suppose we push a box with a constant force a Figure 7 1. If we move the box in the direction of F! F, through a displace work W we have done is Fd: The amount of work done on an object depends on the applied force and Definition the displacement of Work, W, of When thea object Constant as Force the force Is in the acts. Direction of Displac W = Fd If the force is in the same direction as the displacement, SI unit: newton-meter 1N # m2 = joule, J W = Fd rce in hrough ase, t are in on the F d F

17 Work W = Fd Units of Work? They have a special name: Joules, symbol J. 1 joule = 1 J = 1 Nm Work is not a vector. Work is a scalar.

In Figure 7 3 we show the displacement and the force for the suitcase gle p at. The of e by F F cos d F F cos For a constant applied force, Work is defined as: W = F d = Fd cos θ

22 Work In this expression: W = F d = Fd cos θ we use something called the dot product of two vectors A and B: A B = AB cos θ

23 d u Units of Work Thus, whenever we calculate work, we must be careful about its sign and assume it to be positive. Work can be positive or negative! the e- nerro gles F F F d d d 90 < < 90 = ± < < 270 W = Fd cos θ > 0 (a) (b) (c) W = Fd cos θ = 0 W = Fd cos θ < 0 positive work zero work negative work For work done on a system: Positive energy is transferred to the system.

26 Net Work The net work is the sum of all the individual works. W net = i W i where W i = F i d cos θ is the work done by the force F i. If the system can be modeled as a particle (the only case we consider in this course): W net = F net d cos θ assuming the net force is constant.
