·         
4.14 describe power as the rate of transfer of energy or the rate of doing work
"Rate" just means "divided by time" (see Entrance Activity)

So

Power = Energy / Time

or

Power = Work done / Time

Tell the person next to you...
·         You can run up the stairs in the Science block in 30 seconds.
·         Mr. Roff can run up the stairs in the Science block in 20 seconds.
·         Who is the most powerful?  Why?
·         Mr Roff.  He does more work running up the stairs (because has a higher weight) in a shorted time so he is more powerful

 

·         It takes 2 minutes to fill the 20 litre sinks in this room with water. 
·         How fast is the sink filling?
·         10 litres/min
·         At what rate is the sink filling?
·         10 litres/min
·         How long would it take to fill a 10 litre sink?
·         1 min

Power questions

Power is the rate of doing work
Power - in watts - = work done - joules- / time - seconds
1 watt is a rate of working of one joule per second 

1. 1000/5 = 200w

2. p=wd/t 
Wd = Fxd
600/6 = 100w

3 p=wd/t
p=30000/4
= 7500w
= 7.5kw

4.13

· 4.13 understand how conservation of energy produces a link between gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy and work

PFY pg 121

19a) w=50x10
w= 500N

b) GPE = MGH
GPE = 50x10x4 GPE = 2,000J

c) KE= 2,000J

Collins pg 91 3a) GPE = 35x10x30 GPE = 10,500J

b) GPE at the top = KE at the bottom 10 500 = 0.5x 35x v squared v squared = 600 v= 24.5m/s c) SOme energy is wasted due to friction

1.
a) Joules => Force => Distance b) Newton => Meter => force d) Energy 2. Wd= f x d
Wd = 5 x 2
Wd = 10J

4. Wd = f x d Wd = 500 x 40
Wd = 20kJ

4.9



·         
4.9 recall and use the relationship between work, force and distance moved in the direction of the force:

       work done = force × distance moved         

Wd = F × d
