How can we design the track (e.g., the height, h, and the radius of curvature, ) to control the forces experienced by the passengers? APPLICATIONS (continued) Crash barrels are often used along roadways for crash protection.
The barrels absorb the cars kinetic energy by deforming. If we know the velocity of an oncoming car and the amount of energy that can be absorbed by each barrel, how can we design a crash cushion? WORK AND ENERGY Another equation for working kinetics problems involving particles can be derived by integrating the equation of motion (F = ma) with respect to displacement. This principle is useful for solving problems that involve force, velocity, and displacement. It can also be used to explore the concept of power. By substituting a t = v (dv/ds) into F t = ma t , the result is integrated to yield an equation known as the principle of work and energy. To use this principle, we must first understand how to calculate the work of a force. WORK OF A FORCE (Section 14.1) A force does work on a particle when the particle undergoes a displacement along the line of action of the force. Work is defined as the product of force and displacement components acting in the same direction. So, if the angle between the force and displacement vector is u, the increment of work dU done by the force is dU = F ds cos u By using the definition of the dot product and integrating, the total work can be written as } r 2 r 1 U 1-2 = F dr WORK OF A FORCE (continued) Work is positive if the force and the movement are in the same direction. If they are opposing, then the work is negative. If the force and the displacement directions are perpendicular, the work is zero. If F is a function of position (a common case) this becomes } = s 2 s 1 F cos u ds U 1-2 If both F and u are constant (F = F c ), this equation further simplifies to U 1-2 = F c cos u (s 2 - s 1 ) WORK OF A WEIGHT The work done by the gravitational force acting on a particle (or weight of an object) can be calculated by using The work of a weight is the product of the magnitude of the particles weight and its vertical displacement. If Ay is upward, the work is negative since the weight force always acts downward. - W (y 2 y 1 ) = - W Ay - W dy = U 1-2 = } y 2 y 1 WORK OF A SPRING FORCE When stretched, a linear elastic spring develops a force of magnitude F s = ks, where k is the spring stiffness and s is the displacement from the unstretched position. If a particle is attached to the spring, the force F s exerted on the particle is opposite to that exerted on the spring. Thus, the work done on the particle by the spring force will be negative or U 1-2 = [ 0.5 k (s 2 ) 2 0.5 k (s 1 ) 2 ] . The work of the spring force moving from position s 1 to position s 2 is = 0.5 k (s 2 ) 2 0.5 k (s 1 ) 2
k s ds F s ds U 1-2 s 2 s 1 s 2 s 1 = } = } SPRING FORCES 1. The equations above are for linear springs only! Recall that a linear spring develops a force according to F = ks (essentially the equation of a line). 3. Always double check the sign of the spring work after calculating it. It is positive work if the force put on the object by the spring and the movement are in the same direction. 2. The work of a spring is not just spring force times distance at some point, i.e., (ks i )(s i ). Beware, this is a trap that students often fall into! It is important to note the following about spring forces. PRINCIPLE OF WORK AND ENERGY (Section 14.2 & Section 14.3) U 1-2 is the work done by all the forces acting on the particle as it moves from point 1 to point 2. Work can be either a positive or negative scalar. By integrating the equation of motion, F t = ma t = mv(dv/ds), the principle of work and energy can be written as U 1-2 = 0.5 m (v 2 ) 2 0.5 m (v 1 ) 2 or T 1 + U 1-2 = T 2 T 1 and T 2 are the kinetic energies of the particle at the initial and final position, respectively. Thus, T 1 = 0.5 m (v 1 ) 2 and T 2 = 0.5 m (v 2 ) 2 . The kinetic energy is always a positive scalar (velocity is squared!). So, the particles initial kinetic energy plus the work done by all the forces acting on the particle as it moves from its initial to final position is equal to the particles final kinetic energy. PRINCIPLE OF WORK AND ENERGY (continued) The principle of work and energy cannot be used, in general, to determine forces directed normal to the path, since these forces do no work. Note that the principle of work and energy (T 1 + U 1-2 = T 2 ) is not a vector equation! Each term results in a scalar value. Both kinetic energy and work have the same units, that of energy! In the SI system, the unit for energy is called a joule (J), where 1 J = 1 N m. In the FPS system, units are ft lb. The principle of work and energy can also be applied to a system of particles by summing the kinetic energies of all particles in the system and the work due to all forces acting on the system. The case of a body sliding over a rough surface merits special consideration. This equation is satisfied if P = k N. However, we know from experience that friction generates heat, a form of energy that does not seem to be accounted for in this equation. It can be shown that the work term ( k N)s represents both the external work of the friction force and the internal work that is converted into heat. WORK OF FRICTION CAUSED BY SLIDING The principle of work and energy would be applied as 0.5m (v) 2 + P s ( k N) s = 0.5m (v) 2 Consider a block which is moving over a rough surface. If the applied force P just balances the resultant frictional force k N, a constant velocity v would be maintained. Given: When s = 0.6 m, the spring is not stretched or compressed, and the 10 kg block, which is subjected to a force of F= 100 N, has a speed of 5 m/s down the smooth plane. Find: The distance s when the block stops. Plan: Since this problem involves forces, velocity and displacement, apply the principle of work and energy to determine s. EXAMPLE Apply the principle of work and energy between position 1 (s 1 = 0.6 m) and position 2 (s 2 ). Note that the normal force (N) does no work since it is always perpendicular to the displacement. EXAMPLE (continued) Solution: T 1 + U 1-2 = T 2
There is work done by three different forces;
1) work of a the force F =100 N; U F = 100 (s 2 s 1 ) = 100 (s 2 0.6) 2) work of the block weight; U W = 10 (9.81) (s 2 s 1 ) sin 30 = 49.05 (s 2 0.6) 3) and, work of the spring force. U S = - 0.5 (200) (s 2 0.6) 2 = -100 (s 2 0.6) 2
The work and energy equation will be T 1 + U 1-2 = T 2
EXAMPLE (continued) Solving for (s 2 0.6), (s 2 0.6) = {-149.05 (149.05 2 4(-100)125) 0.5 } / 2(-100)
Selecting the positive root, indicating a positive spring deflection, (s 2 0.6) = 2.09 m Therefore, s 2 = 2.69 m CONCEPT QUIZ 1.

Plan: 1) Define the kinematic relationships between the blocks. 2) Draw the FBD of each block. 3) Apply the principle of work and energy to the system of blocks. Why choose this method? GROUP PROBLEM SOLVING (continued) Since the cable length is constant: 2s A + s B = l 2As A + As B = 0 When As B = -2 ft => As A = 1 ft and 2v A + v B = 0 => v B = -2v A Note that, by this definition of s A and s B , positive motion for each block is defined as downwards.

A) displacement B) velocity C) gravity D) friction APPLICATIONS Engines and motors are often rated in terms of their power output. The power output of the motor lifting this elevator is related to the vertical force F acting on the elevator, causing it to move upwards. Given a desired lift velocity for the elevator (with a known maximum load), how can we determine the power requirement of the motor? APPLICATIONS (continued) The speed at which a truck can climb a hill depends in part on the power output of the engine and the angle of inclination of the hill. For a given angle, how can we determine the speed of this truck, knowing the power transmitted by the engine to the wheels? Can we find the speed, if we know the power? If we know the engine power output and speed of the truck, can we determine the maximum angle of climb of this truck ? POWER AND EFFICIENCY (Section 14.4) Thus, power is a scalar defined as the product of the force and velocity components acting in the same direction.
Since the work can be expressed as dU = F dr, the power can be written P = dU/dt = (F dr)/dt = F (dr/dt) = F v If a machine or engine performs a certain amount of work, dU, within a given time interval, dt, the power generated can be calculated as P = dU/dt Power is defined as the amount of work performed per unit of time.
POWER Using scalar notation, power can be written P = F v = F v cos u where u is the angle between the force and velocity vectors. In the FPS system, power is usually expressed in units of horsepower (hp) where 1 hp = 550 (ft lb)/s = 746 W . So if the velocity of a body acted on by a force F is known, the power can be determined by calculating the dot product or by multiplying force and velocity components.
The unit of power in the SI system is the Watt (W) where 1 W = 1 J/s = 1 (N m)/s . EFFICIENCY If energy input and removal occur at the same time, efficiency may also be expressed in terms of the ratio of output energy to input energy or c = (energy output) / (energy input) Machines will always have frictional forces. Since frictional forces dissipate energy, additional power will be required to overcome these forces. Consequently, the efficiency of a machine is always less than 1. The mechanical efficiency of a machine is the ratio of the useful power produced (output power) to the power supplied to the machine (input power) or c = (power output) / (power input) PROCEDURE FOR ANALYSIS Multiply the force magnitude by the component of velocity acting in the direction of F to determine the power supplied to the body (P = F v cos u ). If the mechanical efficiency of a machine is known, either the power input or output can be determined. Determine the velocity of the point on the body at which the force is applied. Energy methods or the equation of motion and appropriate kinematic relations, may be necessary. In some cases, power may be found by calculating the work done per unit of time (P = dU/dt). Find the resultant external force acting on the body causing its motion. It may be necessary to draw a free-body diagram. EXAMPLE Given: A 50 kg block (A) is hoisted by the pulley system and motor M. The motor has an efficiency of 0.8. At this instant, point P on the cable has a velocity of 12 m/s which is increasing at a rate of 6 m/s 2 . Neglect the mass of the pulleys and cable. Find: The power supplied to the motor at this instant. Plan: 1) Relate the cable and block velocities by defining position coordinates. Draw a FBD of the block. 2) Use the equation of motion to determine the cable tension. 3) Calculate the power supplied by the motor and then to the motor. EXAMPLE (continued) Solution: Here s P is defined to a point on the cable. Also s A is defined only to the lower pulley, since the block moves with the pulley. From kinematics, s P + 2 s A = l a P + 2 a A = 0 a A = a P / 2 = 3 m/s 2 ()

EXAMPLE (continued) 3) The power supplied by the motor is the product of the force applied to the cable and the velocity of the cable. P o = F v = (320.3)(12) = 3844 W P i = P o /c = 3844/0.8 = 4804 W = 4.8 kW The power supplied to the motor is determined using the motors efficiency and the basic efficiency equation.

Understand the concept of conservative forces and determine the potential energy of such forces. 2. Apply the principle of conservation of energy. In-Class Activities: Check Homework Reading Quiz Applications Conservative Force Potential Energy Conservation of Energy Concept Quiz Group Problem Solving Attention Quiz READING QUIZ 1. The potential energy of a spring is ________ A) always negative. B) always positive. C) positive or negative. D) equal to ks. 2. When the potential energy of a conservative system increases, the kinetic energy _________ A) always decreases. B) always increases. C) could decrease or D) does not change. increase. APPLICATIONS The weight of the sacks resting on this platform causes potential energy to be stored in the supporting springs.
As each sack is removed, the platform will rise slightly since some of the potential energy within the springs will be transformed into an increase in gravitational potential energy of the remaining sacks. If the sacks weigh 100 lb and the equivalent spring constant is k = 500 lb/ft, what is the energy stored in the springs? APPLICATIONS (continued) The boy pulls the water balloon launcher back, stretching each of the four elastic cords. If we know the unstretched length and stiffness of each cord, can we estimate the maximum height and the maximum range of the water balloon when it is released from the current position ? APPLICATIONS (continued) The roller coaster is released from rest at the top of the hill. As the coaster moves down the hill, potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy. What is the velocity of the coaster when it is at B and C? Also, how can we determine the minimum height of the hill so that the car travels around both inside loops without leaving the track? CONSERVATIVE FORCE (Section 14.5) A force F is said to be conservative if the work done is independent of the path followed by the force acting on a particle as it moves from A to B. This also means that the work done by the force F in a closed path (i.e., from A to B and then back to A) is zero.
Thus, we say the work is conserved. } r F 0 = d x y z A B F The work done by a conservative force depends only on the positions of the particle, and is independent of its velocity or acceleration. CONSERVATIVE FORCE (continued) A more rigorous definition of a conservative force makes use of a potential function (V) and partial differential calculus, as explained in the text. However, even without the use of the these mathematical relationships, much can be understood and accomplished. The conservative potential energy of a particle/system is typically written using the potential function V. There are two major components to V commonly encountered in mechanical systems, the potential energy from gravity and the potential energy from springs or other elastic elements. V total = V gravity + V springs POTENTIAL ENERGY Potential energy is a measure of the amount of work a conservative force will do when a body changes position. In general, for any conservative force system, we can define the potential function (V) as a function of position. The work done by conservative forces as the particle moves equals the change in the value of the potential function (e.g., the sum of V gravity and V springs ). It is important to become familiar with the two types of potential energy and how to calculate their magnitudes. POTENTIAL ENERGY DUE TO GRAVITY The potential function (formula) for a gravitational force, e.g., weight (W = mg), is the force multiplied by its elevation from a datum. The datum can be defined at any convenient location. V g = W y
V g is positive if y is above the datum and negative if y is below the datum. Remember, YOU get to set the datum. ELASTIC POTENTIAL ENERGY Recall that the force of an elastic spring is F = ks. It is important to realize that the potential energy of a spring, while it looks similar, is a different formula. Notice that the potential function V e always yields positive energy. k s 2 2 1 V e = V e (where e denotes an elastic spring) has the distance s raised to a power (the result of an integration) or CONSERVATION OF ENERGY (Section 14.6) When a particle is acted upon by a system of conservative forces, the work done by these forces is conserved and the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy remains constant. In other words, as the particle moves, kinetic energy is converted to potential energy and vice versa. This principle is called the principle of conservation of energy and is expressed as 2 2 1 1 V T V T + = + = Constant T 1 stands for the kinetic energy at state 1 and V 1 is the potential energy function for state 1. T 2 and V 2
represent these energy states at state 2. Recall, the kinetic energy is defined as T = mv 2 . EXAMPLE Given: The 2 kg collar is moving down with the velocity of 4 m/s at A. The spring constant is 30 N/m. The unstretched length of the spring is 1 m.
Find: The velocity of the collar when s = 1 m.
Plan:
Apply the conservation of energy equation between A and C. Set the gravitational potential energy datum at point A or point C (in this example, choose point Awhy?). Similarly, the potential and kinetic energies at A will be V A = 0.5 (30) (2 1) 2 , T A = 0.5 (2) 4 2
EXAMPLE (continued) Solution: Note that the potential energy at C has two parts. V C = (V C ) e + (V C ) g
V C = 0.5 (30) (5 1) 2 2 (9.81) 1 The kinetic energy at C is T C = 0.5 (2) v 2
The energy conservation equation becomes T A + V A = T C + V C . [ 0.5(30) (5 1) 2 2(9.81)1 ] + 0.5 (2) v 2
= [0.5 (30) (2 1) 2 ]+ 0.5 (2) 4 2 v = 5.26 m/s CONCEPT QUIZ 2. Recall that the work of a spring is U 1-2 = - k(s 2 2 s 1 2 ) and can be either positive or negative.
