*In the following 4 scenarios, decide if work is being done. *Write your answer and explanation in the first column.

Scenario 1: A teacher applies a force to a wall and becomes exhausted.

Scenario 3: A waiter carries a tray full of meals above his head by one arm straight across a restaurant at a constant speed.

Scenario 4: A rocket accelerates through space.

*3 things needed for work: *1. *2. *3. There must be a force on an object. There must be a displacement. The force must cause the displacement.

* The Joule is the unit of Work. 1 Joule = 1 Newton x 1 meter 1 J = 1 N*m

* James was the son of a rich beer brewer from England. He was homeschooled until he was 15, when he was taught the fundamentals of chem, physics and mathematics by John Dalton ((another famous British chemist). James Joule was able to test out his theories about heat and energy transfer by giving electrical shocks to his brother and playing with the equipment at the brewery.

Scenario 1: A teacher applies a force to a wall and becomes exhausted. This is NOT WORK. The wall DOES NOT move.

Scenario 2: A book falls off a table and free falls to the ground.

Scenario 2: A book falls off a table and free falls to the ground. This is WORK. A force of gravity acts on the book to displace it down (falling).

Scenario 3: A waiter carries a tray full of meals above his head by

Scenario 3: A waiter carries a tray full of meals above his head by one arm straight across a restaurant at a constant speed. This is NOT work. The waiter uses a force to hold the tray up, but the tray moved horizontally across the room. The force DOES NOT cause the displacement of the tray.

Scenario 4: A rocket accelerates through space. This is WORK. There is a force

Scenario 4: A rocket accelerates through space. This is WORK. There is a force (the expelled gases push on the rocket) which causes it to be displaced through space.

* *A nurse pushes a 700 N patient in a wheelchair 5. 0 m

* *A nurse pushes a 700 N patient in a wheelchair 5. 0 m up an inclined plane with a force of 320 N. Calculate how much work the nurse did. W=Fxd W = 320 N x 5. 0 m W = 1600 J This is the INPUT WORK!

* *The height of the ramp is 2. 0 m. *The weight of the

* *The height of the ramp is 2. 0 m. *The weight of the patient and wheelchair is 700 N. W=Fxd W = 700 N x 2. 0 m W = 1400 J This is the OUTPUT WORK!

* The ramp was 87. 5 % efficient because some work was lost due

* The ramp was 87. 5 % efficient because some work was lost due to friction!

* *A horse is pulling a cart with a force of 150 N by 10 m every 20 seconds. What is the POWER of the horse? *F=150 N *d=10 m *t= 20 s

* *Energy is the ability to cause a change in motion and do WORK!

* *Energy is the ability to cause a change in motion and do WORK! *Remember, to do WORK… a FORCE must be applied to an object to cause the object to MOVE in the SAME direction as the FORCE.

* *Energy does not have MASS and does NOT take up SPACE!

*In our universe, energy cannot be created or destroyed. *Energy can be transformed from one form to another, but the total amount of energy in the universe is constant.

* *Forms of energy include chemical, electrical, thermal, light (radiant), mechanical (kinetic & potential)

* *Forms of energy include chemical, electrical, thermal, light (radiant), mechanical (kinetic & potential) nuclear, sound *Types of Energy
