ENERGY III VOCAB-PS22-WORK & POWER

ASSIGNED MONDAY (1/17)--LOG 15 MINUTES BY 10 PM THURSDAY

AB
WORKA force acts on an object, and the object moves in the direction that is parallel to the force (same direction)
WORK EQUATIONW = Fd (W=mad)
ZERO WORKForce (F) and distance (d) are perpendicular to each other (ex. hold book up and walk with it)
NO WORK IS DONEIf the object does not move, then...
JOULE (J)The unit for Work is the...
twice the work (directly proportional)What happens if twice the work is exerted over the same distance?
twice the work (directly proportional)What happens if the object moves twice the distance?
powerAmount of work done divided by the time interval during which the work is done
watt (w)unit for power
power formulaP = W/t
powerRate at which work is done
worktransfer of FORCE from one object to another over some DISTANCE
workConsider the scenario below. When is the weight-lifter doing WORK? Lifting dumbbell from ground-level to waist-level
NOT Work (Weight-lifter only controls RATE of GRAVITY)Consider the scenario below. When is the weight-lifter doing WORK? Lower dumbbell to waist-level
W = F x D = 500N x 4m = 2000.00JHow much Work is needed to lift an object that weighs 500N to a height of 4m?
W = F x D = 1000N x 8m = 8000.00JHow much Work is needed to lift 1000N to a height of 8m?
NO because the wall did not move any Distance.A man pushes on a wall with ALL HIS MIGHT. The wall doesn't move. Is there work done on the wall?
unit for powerJoules/Second = Watts (W)
W = F x d = 70.00 JIf you exert a force of 35 N to lift a box a distance of 2 m, how much work is done?
P = W / t = 8.00 wA stage manager at a play raises the curtain by doing 200 J of work on the curtain in 25s. What is the power output of the stage manager?
