Object falling down from rest  h < 0  Wg > 0

Wg = K  K > 0  K > 0 (Isn’t obvious?)

If you want to stop the object, K: +  0  K < 0
negative work
 W < 0 by you You are doing _______

associated force.

when object falls from different initial heights
Conservative and Nonconservative
Forces
Conservative Force:



The net work done by a conservative force on a particle moving
around any closed path is zero.
The work done by a conservative force on a particle moving
between two points does not depend on the path taken by the
particle.
Examples: gravity (weight), spring force
Nonconservative Force:


6
The work done by a nonconservative force on a particle moving
between two points depends on the path taken by the particle.
Example: friction, force you push a table from some initial point
to final point
Force and Potential Energy

energies.

A volcanic ash flow is moving across horizontal ground when it
encounters a 10o upslope. The front of the flow then travels 920 m on
the upslope before stopping. Assume that the gases entrapped in the
flow lift the flow and thus make the frictional force from the ground
negligible; assume also that mechanical energy of the front of the flow
is conserved. What was the initial speed of the front of the flow?
