Topics in Work and Energy
1
Scientific Concept of Work
- Work in science has a specific meaning different from everyday usage
- Two conditions must be satisfied for work to be done: (1) A force must act on an object, (2) The object must be displaced
- If either condition is missing, no work is done scientifically
2
Energy and Its Forms
- Energy is the capacity to do work
- Objects with energy can exert force on other objects and cause displacement
- Energy is measured in Joules (same unit as work)
3
Kinetic Energy
- Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion
- Moving objects can do work by applying force and causing displacement
- Faster moving objects have more kinetic energy
4
Potential Energy
- Potential energy is stored energy due to position or configuration
- Gravitational potential energy depends on height above reference level
- Objects at greater heights have more gravitational potential energy
