Work and Kinetic Energy
A meaningful work in physics is done only when the sum of
the forces exerted on an object made a motion to the object.
What does this mean?
However much tired your arms feel, if you were
just holding an object without moving it you
have not done any physical work to the object.
Mathematically, the work is defined as the
scalar product of the net force vector, and
the displacement vector!

Work and Energy Involving Kinetic Friction
• What do you think the work looks like if there is friction?
– Static friction does not matter! Why? It isn’t there when the object is moving.
– Then which friction matters? Kinetic Friction

Example of Work Under Friction
A 6.0kg block initially at rest is pulled to East along a horizontal surface with coefficient
of kinetic friction mk=0.15 by a constant horizontal force of 12N. Find the speed of the

Ex. Downhill Skiing
A 58kg skier is coasting down a 25o
slope. A kinetic frictional force of
magnitude fk=70N opposes her motion.
At the top of the slope, the skier’s
speed is v0=3.6m/s. Ignoring air
resistance, determine the speed vf at
the point that is displaced 57m downhill.
What are the forces in this motion?
Gravitational force: Fg Normal force: FN
Kinetic frictional force: fk

Potential Energy & Conservation of Mechanical Energy
Energy associated with a system of objects  Stored energy which has the
potential or the possibility to work or to convert to kinetic energy
What does this mean?
In order to describe potential energy, U,
a system must be defined.
The concept of potential energy can only be used under the
special class of forces called the conservative force which
results in the principle of conservation of mechanical energy.
EM  KEi  PEi  KE f  PE f
What are other forms of energies in the universe?
Mechanical Energy
Chemical Energy
Electromagnetic Energy
Biological Energy
Nuclear Energy
These different types of energies are stored in the universe in many different forms!!!
If one takes into account ALL forms of energy, the total energy in the entire

Gravitational Potential Energy
This potential energy is given to an object by the gravitational field in the
system of Earth by virtue of the object’s height from an arbitrary zero level
When an object is falling, the gravitational force, Mg, performs the work
on the object, increasing the object’s kinetic energy. So the potential energy
of an object at height h, the potential to do work, is expressed as
m

The gymnast leaves the trampoline at an initial height of 1.20 m and reaches
a maximum height of 4.80 m before falling back down. What was the initial
speed of the gymnast?

Conservative Forces and Potential Energy
The work done on an object by a conservative force is
Wc 
equal to the decrease in the potential energy of the system
What does this
statement tell you?

xf
xi
Fx dx  U
The work done by a conservative force is equal to the negative
change of the potential energy associated with that force.
Only the changes in potential energy of a system is physically meaningful!!
We can rewrite the above equation
in terms of the potential energy U
xf
U  U f  U i   x Fx dx
i
So the potential energy associated
with a conservative force at any
given position becomes
U f  x     Fx dx  U i Potential energy
What can you tell from the
potential energy function above?
Since Ui is a constant, it only shifts the resulting
Uf(x) by a constant amount. One can always
change the initial potential so that Ui can be 0.
