DESCRIPTION
Work and Power. The word “WORK”. What does it mean in everyday life? “Work” has a specific definition in science. Remember: Newton’s 1 st Law. An object only begins moving when an unbalanced force acts on it. Net force > 0. Work. - PowerPoint PPT PresentationTRANSCRIPT

The word “WORK”• What does it mean in
everyday life?
• “Work” has a specific definition in science.
![Page 3: Work and Power](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070421/56816335550346895dd3c1b5/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Remember: Newton’s 1st Law• An object only begins
moving when an unbalanced force acts on it.
• Net force > 0
![Page 4: Work and Power](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070421/56816335550346895dd3c1b5/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Work• Work is done when a force
acts on an object in the direction the object moves.
• Work = force x distance
• Work requires motion• If there is no movement, no
work is done.
![Page 5: Work and Power](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070421/56816335550346895dd3c1b5/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• Force must act in SAME DIRECTION as motion
• Any part of a force that does not act in the direction of motion does no work on an object.
• Examples

Which ones require work?• Ronnie pushes on a wall until he is
exhausted.
• Timara knocks a book off the table and it falls to the ground.

Question:• You carry two heavy grocery bags
upstairs to your kitchen.
• Will you do more work on the bags if you carry them up one at a time?
• Explain.

Units of Work• Remember: units of force?
– Newton
• Remember: units of distance?– meter
Work = Force x Distance
Work = N x m
N x m = 1 Joule

JOULE (J) is the unit for Work
![Page 10: Work and Power](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070421/56816335550346895dd3c1b5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Calculating WorkA weightlifter lifts a 1800-N barbell
over his head. He has to lift it for 2.0 m. What amount of work is done?
F = 1800 N
D = 2.0 m
W = F x D
W = 1800 N x 2.0 m
W = 3600 Nm = 3600 J

PracticeHow much work does a 25-
Newton force do to lift a potted plant from the floor to a shelf 1.5 meters high?

PracticeA factory machine uses 2600-
Newtons of force to move a robotic arm 3.5 meters. How much work does the machine perform?

Power• What does it mean in
everyday life?
• “Power” also has a specific meaning in science.
![Page 14: Work and Power](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070421/56816335550346895dd3c1b5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Power• The rate of doing work.
• How FAST can work get done?• To get work done faster, more
power is required.
Power = Work
Time

Which has more power:
• A person with a snow shovel?
• A snow blower?
• A truck with a snow plow?
![Page 16: Work and Power](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070421/56816335550346895dd3c1b5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Predicting• Two cars have the same weight, but
Car A has an engine that provides twice the power of Car B.
• Which car can make it to the top of a mountain pass first?
• Which car does more work to reach the top?
![Page 17: Work and Power](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070421/56816335550346895dd3c1b5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Units of Power• Remember: units of Work
– Joule• Remember: units of Time
– Seconds
Power = Work
Time
Power = Joule
second= 1 Watt

Watt (W) is theunit for Power.
![Page 19: Work and Power](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070421/56816335550346895dd3c1b5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Example:
• 40-Watt light bulb–Requires 40 joules of work for
every second that it is lit
• Same power as lifting your textbook a height of 1 meter in half a second.
![Page 20: Work and Power](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070421/56816335550346895dd3c1b5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Calculating PowerYou exert a vertical force of 72
Newtons to lift a box to a height of 1.0 meter in a time of 2.0 seconds. How much power is used to lift the box?
F = 72 N
D = 1.0 m
T = 2.0 s
Power = Work
Time=
Force x Distance
Time
72 N x 1.0 m
2.0 sPower = =
72 J
2.0 s
Power = 36 J/s = 36 Watts

Practice1. Deshawna ice skates 70 m in 60
seconds with a force of 10 N. How much work did she do? How much Power did she have?
2. Darane runs up the NLCP stairs in 3 seconds. She uses a force of 20 N and the stairs are 4 meters tall. How much work did she do? How much Power did she have?
