WORK
work is defined as the action
that results when a force causes
an object to move
in the direction of the force.
Work in the scientific sense is a hard concept for
many people to understand. You know that work
is done if the following two conditions are met:
The object moves as a force is applied.
The direction of the object's motion is the

same as the direction of the force applied.
A.
Is work being
done? of the force?
What is the direction
B
. What is the direction
of the motion ?
.
Is work being
done?
of the force?

of the motion ?
You Try!
work!
Work = force x displacement or
W= fd
Expressed in units called joules (J)
Practice Problem
A crane lifts a load of logs 3 meters with a
force of 5,200 Newton.
How much work did the crane do

1. KINETIC ENERGY
 Energy in motion
 Energy in moving
objects
KINETIKOS
GREEK word
which means moving

What is Kinetic Energy?
 Energy an object has due to
its motion
 K.E. = .5(mass x speed2)
How to solve Kinetic Energy
KE = mv2
Where:
KE - is the Kinetic energy in joule(J)
m - is the object’s mass in
kilogram ( kg)
v - is the object’s speed in
meter per second (m/s)
Sample problem
A car is traveling with a velocity of
40 m/s and has a mass of 1120 kg.
What is the Kinetic Energy of the
moving car?
Formula KE = mv2
Given Solution:
KE = (½ ) x (1120kg) x (40 m/s) 2
v= 40 m/s
KE = (.5) x (1120 kg) x (1600m 2 /s 2)
m= 1120 kg
KE = 896, 000 J
1. POTENTIAL ENERGY
 Energy in position or at rest
 Energy stored in an object due to
its position and waiting to be used later
How to solve Potential Energy
PE = mgh
PE = Fxh ( F= mg)
Where:
PE - is the Potential energy in joule( J)
m - is the object’s mass in kilogram ( kg)
g - gravitational acceleration ( 9.8m/s 2)
h - height (m)
Reminder: when calculating mass and height
since division is one of the operations to be used, cancel similar unit
to determine the unit of the final answer
Sample problem
A cinder block is sitting on a platform 20 m
high. It weighs 79N. How much potential
energy is present in the cinder block?
Given Formula PE = F x h
Solution:
h = 20 m PE = 79 N x 20 m
F= 79 N PE = 1,580 Nm or
1, 580 J
What is Gravitational Potential Energy?
Potential energy due
to an object’s
position
Don’t look down, P.E. = mass x
Rover! height x gravity
Good boy!
Exercises

a. What is the rock’s gravitational potential
energy at 100 meters high?

energy at 50 m, 20 m, and 1 m. Put the answers in
the data table below.
Height (m) Potential Energy (J)

20 m
1m
.
c. Make a graph of height versus energy
d. What can you conclude about the

gravitational potential energy of the rock as
height is changed?
What is Elastic Potential Energy?
Potential energy due compression or
expansion of an elastic object.
Notice the ball compressing

and expanding
What is Chemical Potential Energy?
Potential energy
stored within the
chemical bonds of
an object
