ENERGY, WORK, POWER

ENERGY
If something has ‘energy’ it can make things happen. To speak in more scientific terms:
Energy is the capacity of a system to perform work. The 'Law of Conservation of Energy'
states that energy can neither be destroyed nor created, but can be transformed from one form
to another. There are several types or forms of energy.
ENERGY FORMS
The energy forms most commonly used are:
• chemical energy
• potential energy (EP)
• kinetic energy (EK)
• heat energy
• magnetic energy
• electrical energy
• nuclear energy
• sound energy
• electromagnetic wave energy.
Energy is always measured in joules (J) no matter what form it is in.
Note: Sometimes EK and EP are considered together under the heading mechanical energy;
sound and electromagnetic waves are considered under the heading wave energy.
Chemical
Nuclear Potential - EP
(EP = m·g·h)
Electrical ENERGY FORMS Kinetic - EK

(E = I · V · t) unit: Joule (J) (EK = ½ m · v2)
Magnetism Energy waves (EMS)
Sound Heat

Physics/FET/Revision: Work, Energy, Power
Chemical energy
Chemicals such as food, oil, coal and gas would be included in this list. They can all be burnt
to provide heat. The chemicals inside a battery will react together to provide electricity.
Chemicals are stores of energy that can be released at a convenient time.
Potential energy (EP)
Potential means hidden or stored. A battery, a spring or a stretched elastic band are examples
of stored energy. Anything that is high up will have the ‘potential’ to be pulled down by
gravity, e.g., water behind a dam. This is sometimes called ‘gravitational energy’.
Kinetic energy (EK)
This is the energy of movement. The k.e. of a moving object increases with mass (kg) and/or
velocity (m/s). The equation used to calculate the k.e. of a moving object is:
Kinetic energy = ½ · Mass · Velocity2 = ½ m · v2
Electromagnetic waves (EMS)
Any wave form, such as light, X-rays, ultraviolet or gamma waves, belongs to a set known as
the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS). They are sometimes called waves, rays or even
radiations. These titles are sometimes even mixed together, e.g., ‘microwave radiation’. They
all transfer energy from place to place. Infrared radiation is a good example and is
responsible for the warming effect of a sunny day. Try to avoid phrases such as ‘heat wave’
when you really mean infrared radiation.
Heat energy
Ice melts when it is heated, an iron bar will expand when heated, etc.
Sound energy
This is an energy form because sound is the movement of air molecules.
Magnetic energy
Magnetism is an energy form and can make things happen (attraction/repulsion).
Electrical energy
The most easily converted energy form. A bulb will give out light (and heat) when provided
with electrical energy. The amount of electrical energy passing through a device depends on:
the current flow (in amperes), the potential difference (in volts) and the time (in seconds) for
which the circuit is switched on. Increase any of these and the total energy will increase. The
equation used to find electrical energy is:
Energy = Current x Potential Difference x Time = I x V x t
Nuclear energy
As atomic nuclei break up they have a heating effect on their surroundings. In nuclear power
plants nuclear energy is converted into heat, which is used to provide steam to drive a turbine
in order to generate electricity.
ENERGY TRANSFERS
Energy changes
Energy arrows (see figure 2 below) can be used to show the changes that take place when
energy is used. It is quite usual for energy to be wasted (in the form of heat) when one form
of energy is changed into another.
Light
(causes bulb to glow)
Battery Electrical
(Echem) Energy Heat
(causes bulb to get hot: energy wasted)

WORK
In Physics, work requires a force to move. For instance: pushing a car to 'bump start' it
involves work. Work always involves an applied force moving a certain distance and is
measured by the product of the force and the distance it moves along its line of action. If the
force is perpendicular to the direction of motion, no work is done.
Work = F x s = force x distance (in the direction of the force)
" Work done equals energy gained.

" It is a scalar.
" It is measured in joules (J).
NB Total Work Done = Applied Force x Distance*

Kinetic Energy = Resultant Force x Distance*
Potential Energy = Weight x Distance*
Energy Dissipated = Frictional Force x Distance*
* Distance must always be in the direction of the force
POWER
Energy and power are not the same: do not confuse the terms 'energy' and 'power'. The word
energy has no connection with time but power does. To be powerful means to be able to use a
large amount of energy all the time. Power is the rate at which energy is used or transformed
power = energy ÷ time or: power = work ÷ time
" It is a scalar.
" It is measured in watts (W).
FORMULAE
• F x s = work (provided F and S are in the same direction)
• Work = Power x Time
• Work done = energy gained.
• Kinetic energy: EK = 1/2 m · v2
or: EK = acceleration · mass · distance* = a · m · s
(derived from: v2 = u2 + ½ · a · t2 with u = 0 m/s)
• Potential energy: EP = m · g · h

Model Answers Structured Questions:
Q1:
i) Since there is only one force acting on the mass, this force is the resultant force (FRes).
a = 1m/s2
2 kg
2 kg FRes =m·a
= 2kg · 1m/s2
FRes =2N
ii) Force x distance = work

2N x 20m = 40 J = work done
iii) Power = work/time = 40J/time

Since we don't know the time, we have to apply the equations of motion:
given:
u = 0 m/s s = u t + 1/2 · a · t2
v = ____ 20 = 0 + 1/2 · 1 · t2
a = 1 m/s2 t2 = 40
t = ??? ∴ t = √40 = 6,3 seconds

s = 20 m
therefore: Power = 40J/6,3s = 6,3 W
Answer to Q2
140 N 140 N
Start with a force diagram:
10kg
FRes = 40 N↑ = m · a
Weight = mg = 100 N
40 N↑
10 kg = a = 4 m/s2↑ (keep this for later)
a) Work done = applied force x distance = 140N x 20m = 2800 J
___________________________ 14
b) EP = m · g · h = 10kg · 10m/s2 · 20m = 2000 J
c) EK = a · m · s = 4m/s2 · 10kg · 20m = 800 J
or: EK = FRes · s = 40N · 20m = 800 J
d) Power = work done / time taken
1. Find time using equations of motion:
TABLE: s = u t + 1/2 a t2
u = 0 m/s
20m = 0 + 1/2 · 4 · t2
v =
a = 4 m/s2
40/4 = 10 = t2
s = 20 m
t = ???
t = 3,16 seconds
Power = work done / time taken = 2800/3,16 = 886 W
Answer to Q3
This is a case of pump lifting a certain mass of water (10000 kg) up a certain vertical distance
(50 m) in a certain time (600 s). Using Power = Voltage · Current we can find I.
Work = Force · distance = 100000 N · 50m = 5 ·106 J
Power = work/time = 5 ·106 / 600 = 5/6 ·104 = 8333 W
8333 W = 380 V · I
∴ I = 8333/380 = 21.9 A
Answer to Q4 block of wood

+ ve 500m/s comes to rest
Start with a diagram: 1,55 m from initial position
given:
mass of bullet mB = 20 g = 0,02 kg mass of wood mW = 4kg
velocity of bullet vB = 500 m/s velocity of wood before impact vW = 0 m/s
a) This is a momentum problem. Take bullet direction as positive.
___________________________ 15
Momentum before = Momentum after
mB · vB + mW · vW = (mB + mW) v
0,02 · (+ 500) + 4 · 0 = (0,02 + 4) v
10 + 0 = 4,02 · v
∴ v = 10/4,02 = 2,5 m/s (rounded up to 2,5)
b)
bullet only bullet + block
EK = 1/2 m · v2 EK = 1/2 (mB + mW) v2

before after
impact: = 1/2 · 0,02 · (5·102)2 impact: = 1/2 (00,2 + 4,0) · 2,52
= 0,01 · 25 · 104 = 2,01 · 6,25
= 2500 J = 12, 6 J
∴ EK lost (in the form of heat and sound)

= EK (before) - EK (after)
= 2500 J - 12,6 J
= 2487,4 J
c) table: equation of motion:

u = 2,5 m/s v2 = u2 + 2 · a · s
v = 0 m/s 0 = 2,52 + 2 · a · 1,55
a = ? -6,25 = 3,1 · a
t = ? ∴a = -2 m/s2
s = 1,55 m
frictional force =m·a

= 4,02 · 2
frictional force = 8,04 N in the opposite direction to movement
___________________________ 16
Answer to Q5
The block can only move horizontally, therefore all forces must be in the horizontal direction,
which the 100 N is not. So, first one has to find the component of the 100 N in the horizontal
direction.
100 N
cos 600 = adj/hyp = F/100N
hence: F = 100N · cos 600 = 100N · 0,5 = 50 N

600 F
Now we have:
10 kg 50 N
20 N
FRes = 50N - 20N = 30N = a · m = a · 10 kg

∴ a = 3 m/s2 (in the opposite direction to the friction)
Answer to Q6
To reach B the object must have an energy greater or at least equal to Potential energy at
point B:
EP = m g h = 25 · 10 · 0,9 = 225 J
But kinetic energy at point A: EP > EK

EK = 1/2 m v2 = 1/2 · 25 · 42 = 8 · 25 = 200 J
As a result the object will not reach point B since it does not have sufficient energy at point A
to do so.
Answer to Q7
a) At the bottom John has only kinetic energy:
EK = 1/2 m v2 = 1/2 · (47 + 3) · 42 = 25 · 16 = 400 J
At the top he has potential energy (he has risen 0,6 m higher) and kinetic energy (he is still
moving at 1 m/s).
therefore: EP = m g h = (47 + 3) · 10 · 0,6 = 50 · 6 = 300 J
EK = 1/2 m v2 = 1/2 · (47 + 3) · 12 = 25 J
∴ He still has (300 + 25) J = 325 J of energy at the top.
∴ Energy lost to friction = 400 J - 325 J = 75 J
∴ Work done against friction = 75 J
___________________________ 17
b) John's direction of movement taken as positive)
Momentum before = momentum after
mjohn · vjohn + mcat · vcat = (mjohn + mcat ) · v
50 · 1 + 5 · 0 = (50 + 5) · v
v = 50/55 = 0,9 m/s in the direction John is moving.
Answer to Q8
a) let's use equation of motion:
u = 0 (starting from rest)

v=? v2 = u2 + 2 · a · s
a = 3,2 m/s2 = 0 + 2 · 3,2 · 100
t=? = 640
s = 100 m ∴ v = 25,3 m/s
velocity at Q: v = 25,3 m/s
b) Loss of energy = EP (top) - EK (bottom)
= m · g · h - 1/2 m · v2
= 70 · 10 · 50* - 1/2 · 70 · 640 vertical distance between P and Q:

P
= 35000 J - 22400 J
= 12600 J 100m
300 Q
sin 300 = opp/hyp = opp/100

∴ opp (height) = 0,5 · 100 = 50 m
c) In an isolated system the energy is always conserved. It may be converted from one form
to another, but it is never lost.

7. Which one of the following is a measure of power?

9. Two children A and B of equal

A at the same time with the same speed

ii) Force x distance = work

iii) Power = work/time = 40J/time

t = ??? ∴ t = √40 = 6,3 seconds

therefore: Power = 40J/6,3s = 6,3 W

a) Work done = applied force x distance = 140N x 20m = 2800 J

c) EK = a · m · s = 4m/s2 · 10kg · 20m = 800 J

or: EK = FRes · s = 40N · 20m = 800 J

d) Power = work done / time taken

1. Find time using equations of motion:

Power = work done / time taken = 2800/3,16 = 886 W

Work = Force · distance = 100000 N · 50m = 5 ·106 J

Power = work/time = 5 ·106 / 600 = 5/6 ·104 = 8333 W

Answer to Q4 block of wood

a) This is a momentum problem. Take bullet direction as positive.

0,02 · (+ 500) + 4 · 0 = (0,02 + 4) v

∴ v = 10/4,02 = 2,5 m/s (rounded up to 2,5)

bullet only bullet + block

EK = 1/2 m · v2 EK = 1/2 (mB + mW) v2

= 0,01 · 25 · 104 = 2,01 · 6,25

∴ EK lost (in the form of heat and sound)

c) table: equation of motion:

frictional force =m·a

hence: F = 100N · cos 600 = 100N · 0,5 = 50 N

FRes = 50N - 20N = 30N = a · m = a · 10 kg

But kinetic energy at point A: EP > EK

EK = 1/2 m v2 = 1/2 · (47 + 3) · 42 = 25 · 16 = 400 J

∴ He still has (300 + 25) J = 325 J of energy at the top.

∴ Energy lost to friction = 400 J - 325 J = 75 J

∴ Work done against friction = 75 J
