what is kinetic energy?

what gave this ball kinetic energy?

1. before we release the spring, is there energy?

2. How does the potential energy from the spring turn into kinetic
energy in the ball?

Work and Energy

Objectives:
Students will be able to explain what work is and what energy does
Students will understand energy storage and transfer and be able to
describe examples of each
Students will be able to relate force, displacement, and work
Students will be able to solve problems involving work, force, kinetic
energy, displacement, and velocity

What is energy?
We often refer to energy as "the ability to do work".
No one really knows WHAT it is ... but it is useful and it can be:

1. Stored (in one object or entity)

2. Transferred (to another object or entity)

Energy has NO DIRECTION (+/- indicates an increase or decrease,

not a direction along an axis)

WORK: energy is transferred FROM one object TO another ...

WORK=W=Fd

WORK (In Physics)

The energy transferred from one object to another when
there is a force between the objects that exists while the objects
are moving relative to each other.

WORK=W=Fd
F = an applied force (N)
d = the displacement over which the force is applied (m)
The force must be applied in the direction of the displacement.
When these two things are not colinear, it is only important to
consider the component of the force parallel to movement.
Units for Work (and Energy): N x m = Joule (J)
1 J = .7376 lbs x ft

Work has NO DIRECTION! +/- indicate whether an object is the

receiver or giver of energy that is transferred through work.
