Ex 2) A 10 kg frictionless cart is resting on a horizontal table.  A force of 10 N is applied to the cart for a distance of 8 m. What is the carts new KE?

 

Ex 2) A 10 kg frictionless cart is resting on a horizontal table.  A force of 10 N is applied to the cart for a distance of 8 m. What is the carts new kinetic energy?

 

m = 10 kg

F = 10 N

d = 8 m

KE = (˝)mv??

 

ΔKE = W

 

 

= Fd = 10N(8m)

 

 

= 80 Nm

 

 

 

Ex 3) 100 Joules of work is needed to lift a 100 kg object from the ground.

 

What is the objects new P.E.?



 Ex 3) 100 Joules of work is needed to lift a 100 kg object from the ground.

  What is the objects new P.E. ?

W =
ΔPE = 100J 

 

 

Ex 4) Crate is pulled 6.00 m up an incline with a force of 50.0 N. P.E. of  cart increases by 250. J.

Total work done against friction?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ex 4) Crate is pulled 6.00 m up an incline with a force of 50.0 N.  If the PE of the cart increases by 250. J. , what is the total work done against friction?

 

 

d = 6.00 m

F = 50.0 N

ΔPE = 250. J

 

  W = Fd = 50.0 N(6 m)

 

 

= 300. J

 

W = ΔPE + Wf

300. J = 250. J + Wf

Wf = 50.0 J

 

 

 

 

Ex 5) 4 N is exerted on a 1 kg mass at rest for 2 m, causing it to move

 

A. Find the objects K.E.

 

KE = (1/2)mv2

 

Work on object = ΔKE

ΔKE = W = Fd = 4 N(2 m)

 

= 8 Nm

 

B. Find the objects velocity

 

KE = (1/2)mv2

 

 

8 Nm = (1/2)1 kg(v2)

 

16 = v2

 

V = 4 m/s

 


Ex 6) A force of 100.0 N lifts the object 10.00 m off the ground.  What is the object's new PE?

What is the mass of the object?

 

 

Ex 6) A force of 100.0 N lifts the object 10.00 m off the ground.  What is the object's new potential energy?

mass of object?

 

 

ΔPE = W = Fd

 = 100.0 N(10.00 m)

 

= 1000. Nm

 


 

 

What is the mass of the object?


PE = 1000. J = mgh

 

= m(9.8 m/s2)10.00 m = 1000. J

 

m = 10.20 kg

 

 

Ex 7) Spring has a spring constant of 2.0 N/m.

 

How much work must be done to stretch 5.0 m from its equilibrium position?  

 

Ex 7) A spring has a spring constant of 2.0 N/m. How much work must be done to stretch it 5.0 m from its equilibrium position?

 

k = 2.0 N/m

x = 5.0 m

W = ?

 

W = PE = 1/2kx2

 

= (1/2)2.0 N/m(5.0 m)2

 

 

= 25. J

 

 

 

 

Ranking Task

 Rank the KE of the car from largest to smallest

 

 

 

 

B, C, D, A 

 

 

 

How much farther will a car traveling at 100 km/s skid than the same car traveling at 50 km/s?

A) 4X as far B) 2 X as far
C) The same distance
D) 5X as far E) 1/2 as far
