3 Power Forces Conservative Force: P ave = W Δt P = dw dt P = F net v Net work done by a conservative force on an object moving around every closed path is zero Non-conservative Force: Net work done by a non-conservative force on an object moving around every closed path is non-zero

4 Potential energy: Energy U which describes the configuration (or spatial arrangement) of a system of objects that exert conservative forces on each other. It s the stored energy in system. ΔU = W Definition Gravitational Potential energy: [~associated with the state of separation] ΔU grav = y f y i ( mg)dy = mg( y f y ) i If U grav (y = 0) 0 = mgδy then U grav (y) = mgy Elastic Potential energy: [~associated with the state of compression/tension of elastic object] ΔU spring = 1 kx 2 2 f 1 kx 2 i2 If U spring (x = 0) 0 then U spring (x) = 1 2 kx 2 ΔU grav if going up ΔU grav if going down ΔU spring if x goes or (any displacement)

5 Mechanical Energy Mechanical energy: E mech = KE + U Only conservative forces (gravity & spring) cause energy transfer (work) W net = ΔKE Sec. 7-3 W conservative = ΔU Sec. 8-1 Isolated system: Assuming only internal forces (no external forces yet - Sec. 8.6) No external force from outside causes energy change inside ΔE mech = 0 = Δ KE + U ( ) ΔKE = ΔU

6 How to apply your knowledge to solve problems? Step I: Choose a system Step II: Check if forces are conservative Step III: If so, apply ΔE mech = 0 ΔKE = ΔU ( ) = ( KE 2 + U 2 ) KE 1 + U 1

15 Example A block of mass kg is given an initial velocity V a = 1.20 m/sec to the right and collides with a light spring of force (spring constant k=50.0 N/m) as seen in the figure. If the surface is frictionless, calculate the maximium compression of the spring after the collision.

16 Problem A small block of mass m can slide along the frictionless loopthe-loop. The block is released from rest at point P, at a height h = 5R above the bottom of the loop. How much work does the gravitational force do on the block as the block travels from point P to point Q? W g = F g d = mg( ˆ j ) j 5Rˆ j ) j ) ( ) ((Rˆ ) = ( mg( ˆ ) (( 4Rˆ j )) = 4mgR If U = 0 at the bottom, what is the potential energy when the block is at the top of the loop? W g = F g d = 0 = ΔU U top U bottom = W g = mg( ˆ j ) j 0Rˆ j ) [( ) ((2Rˆ )] = 2mgR If, instead of being released, the block is given some initial speed downward along the track, how do the above answers change? Do the answers depend on velocity? NO -> Answers don t change What is the minimum height h so that the block ΔU = ΔKE makes it around the loop? From forces (see prior lecture) y ˆ : F g = ( mg) = m v2 or v min = gr r ( mgh min ) mg(2r) ( ) = 1 m v 2 2 top 2 ( v initial ) ( ) + 2R h min = 1 2g v 2 top 0 h min = 1 2g gr ( ) + 2R = 5 2 R

17 Potential Energy Curve Plot of U(x), the potential energy as a function of the a system with 1-D movement along x-axis: E mech = KE(x) + U(x) = constant KE(x) = E mech U(x) Equilibrium Points Turning point E mech = 3 J F(x) = du(x) dx E mech = 5 J E mech = 4 J E mech = 1 J Equilibrium positions: where slope of U(x) curve is zero [i.e. F(x) = 0 ; NO FORCE ] -> Neutral vs Unstable vs Stable Equilibrium KE=0 ; F=0 & if move left or right move back KE=0 ; F=0 but if move left or right force to move away KE=0 ; E mech =U stationary particle

18 Finding a conservative force from potential energy F (x) U(x) In 1-D: ΔU(x) = W cons = Fdx x 2 x 1 then where F is a slowly varying, internal force acting on a particle in system ΔU(x) F(x)Δx Now go backwards, say you know the change in potential energy at some point and you want to know the force at that point (in the differential limit) F(x) = du(x) dx F grav (y) = du grav (y) dy F spring (x) = du spring (x) dx ( = mgy ) dy = = mg 1 ( kx 2 2 ) = kx dx

19 Potential Energy Curve Plot of U(x), the potential energy as a function of the a system with 1-D movement along x-axis while a conservative force does work on it: F(x) = du(x) dx F(x) is negative slope of tangent to U(x)
