Energy is an abstract quantity that an object is said to possess. It is not something you can directly observe. The usefulness of the concept comes from the Conservation of Energy. In predicting the behavior of objects, one uses the Conservation of Energy to keep track of the total energy and the transfer of energy between its various forms and between objects.
Work is the transfer of energy from one object to another by a force from one on the other that displaces the other.
Power is the rate at which energy is transferred or, the rate at which work is done. Power is the FLOW of energy.
Conservation of Energy
Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It may change in form or be transferred from
one system to another.
The total amount of energy in the Universeis constant and can never change.
i fE E=
Except for VERY brief amounts of time according to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle.
Ways to Transfer Energy Into or Out of A System
• Work – transfers by applying a force and causing a displacement of the point of application of the force
• Mechanical Waves – allow a disturbance to propagate through a medium
• Heat – is driven by a temperature difference between two regions in space
More Ways to Transfer Energy Into or Out of A
System• Matter Transfer – matter
physically crosses the boundary of the system, carrying energy with it
• Electrical Transmission –transfer is by electric current
• Electromagnetic Radiation –energy is transferred by electromagnetic waves
Work Is An Energy Transfer
• If a system interacts with its environment, this interaction can be described as a transfer of energy across the system boundary.This will result in a change in the amount of energy stored in the system
• If the work is done on a system and it is positive, energy is transferred to the system
• If the work done on the system is negative, energy is transferred from the system

Work A force applied across a distance.
cosθ= ΔW F r
Along the direction of motion ONLY! F must be parallel to the direction of motion!
•The sign of the work depends on the direction of F relative to Δr•Work is positive when projection of F onto Δr is in the same direction as the displacement•Work is negative when the projection is in the opposite direction
Work: W = F Δr cos θ– The displacement is that of the point of
application of the force– A force does no work on the object if
the force does not move through a displacement
– The work done by a force on a moving object is zero when the force applied is perpendicular to the displacement of its point of application
– The sign of the work depends on the direction of F relative to Δr
– Work is positive when projection of Fonto Δr is in the same direction as the displacement
– Work is negative when the projection is in the opposite direction 0fW <

Energy StatesLeft to their own devices, systems always seek out the
lowest energy state available to them.Systems want to be at rest or in a constant state of
motion.
You have to do work on the Rock to roll it back up the hill. This will give the Rock Energy – the potential of rolling back down – Potential Energy.
Potential EnergyThe energy an object has due to its position in a force field.
For example: gravity or electricityThe Potential Energy is relative to a ‘ground’ that is defined.

It takes work to move the object and that gives it energy!

same potential energy!WHY?

The interplanetary probe is attracted to the sun by a force given by:
The negative sign indicates that the force is attractive. This is because of the way that the polar unit vectors are defined. With the origin located at the sun and the radial vector pointing towards the probe, the force of gravity acting on the probe is in the negative direction.

Hooke’s Law Fs = - kx
• The restoring force exerted by the spring is Fs = - kx
• x is the position of the block with respect to the equilibrium position (x = 0)
• k is called the spring constant or force constant and measures the stiffness of the spring
Work Done by a Varying Force
Hooke’s Law
An elastic system displaced from equilibrium oscillates in a simple way about its equilibrium position with
Simple Harmonic Motion.
Hooke’s Law describes the elastic response to an applied force.
Elasticity is the property of an object or material which causesit to be restored to its original shape after distortion.
Ut tensio, sic vis - as the extension, so is the force

• When x is positive (spring is stretched), F is negative
• When x is 0 (at the equilibrium position), F is 0
• When x is negative (spring is compressed), F is positive
Hooke’s Law Fs = - kxThe Restoring Force
Hooke’s LawIt takes twice as much force to stretch a spring twice as far.

Hooke’s Law
•The applied force displaces the system a distance x.
•The reaction force of the spring is called the “Restoring Force” and it is in the opposite direction to the displacement.
RestoringF kx= −
Spring Constant k: Stiffness
•The larger k, the stiffer the spring•Shorter springs are stiffer springs•k strength is inversely proportional to the number of coils
Spring Question

Conservative Forces• The work done by a
conservative force on a particle moving between any two points is independent of the path taken by the particle.

• The work done by a conservative force on a particle moving through any closed path is zero– A closed path is one in which
the beginning and ending points are the same
Conservative Forces and Potential Energy
