Schedule for the Week and 6, 7, 8 notes
Monday: Chapter 6, 7, 8 Notes and get all tests from the semester (staple together in order)
Tuesday: Study for exam and Chapter 6, 7, 8 Assessment
Wednesday: Chapter 6, 7, 8 Assessment and study for exam time **collect books
Thursday: Study
NOTES:
Work is done when a force moves an object some DISTANCE (displacement)!!
Work has direction--positive and negative--can cancel each other out to have a displacement of 0)
Work=Force times displacement (W=F*d) (direction matters so label + or -)
Work label is JOULE (J) and remember Force=m*g or weight
(a meter/newton is Torque)
The more powerful machine it can do more work in a certain amount of time. Power is work divided by time. P=W/t
Label: Joules/seconds.....WATTS
Kinetic Energy and Potential Energy: The unit is joules. Because there has to be work to get either one of these types of energies.
KE=1/2 mass * velocity squared (just velocity is squared....) and label is joules
PE=
potential elastic: storing something in something stretched (like a rubber band)
potential gravitational:
PEe=1/2 k x2
K is spring constant and x is displacement
PEg=mgh
Potential Energy gravitational= mass times acceleration due gravity
times height
Law of Conservation of Energy:
- energy cannot be destroyed
- it can only change forms or states
