Title: Work and energy Date : 2018/11/15
0. Objective |
1) Between Energy and Potential Energy 2) What is Kinetic Energy |
1. Definition |
1) Energy : The ability of an object to do its work, as well as its ability to translate this 2) Potential Energy : The energy that an object has when it is at a height. It is the energy stored because of the location or placement of the object 3) Kinetic Energy : It is the energy of an object or particle that is moving. The kinetic energy at a given velocity of a given object is defined as the amount of work required to accelerate the object from its stop to its velocity |
2. Scientific definition |
1) Ability to work physically 2) The energy of a highly located object in the region where gravity acts 3) The energy of the moving object |
3. Solving Problems |
W = F x s = mg x h mg is this object’s weight and h is height of the object from the reference plane. S is object Reference plane of position energy : When the reference plane is changed, the height of the object changes, so the value of the position energy changes according to the reference plane. E = 1/2mv x v When an object of mass m is moving at speed v, the kinetic energy of the object |
4. Scientific terms |
1) Energy 2) Potential Energy 3) Kinetic Energy |
5. Other Information |
Relationship between work and kinetic energy Work done by an object = 1)Later kinetic energy – 2)First kinetic energy W = F x s = 1)1/2mv x v – 2)1/2mv x v So What the object does is equal to the amount of kinetic energy. |
