Chapter 7
Kinetic Energy and Work
In this chapter we will introduce the following concepts:
Kinetic energy of a moving object
Work done by a force
Power
In addition, we will develop the work-kinetic energy theorem and
apply it to solve a variety of problems.
This approach is an alternative approach to mechanics. It uses
scalars such as work and kinetic energy rather than vectors such as
velocity and acceleration. Therefore it is simpler to apply.

Kinetic Energy:
We define a new physical parameter to describe the state of
motion of an object of mass m and speed v.
We define its kinetic energy K as
mv 2
K
.

Unit for Kinetic energy is:
Kinetic energy is a scalar quantity.

Sample Problem 7-1
In 1896 in Waco, Texas, William Crush of the “Katy” railroad
parked two locomotives at opposite ends of a 6.4-km-long track,
fired them up, tied their throttles open, and then allowed them to
crash head-on at full speed in front of 30,000 spectators.
• Hundreds of people were
hurt by flying debris;
several were killed.
Assuming each locomotive
weighed 1.2 x 106 N and
its acceleration along the
track was a constant 0.26
m/s2, what was the total
kinetic energy of the two
locomotives just before the
collision?

Work
Work W is energy transferred to or from an object by
means of a force acting on the object.
• Energy transferred to the object is positive work,
• Energy transferred from the object is negative work.

m
Work: (symbol W)
If a force F is applied to an object of mass m it can accelerate it and
increase its speed v and kinetic energy K. Similarly F can decelerate m
and decrease its kinetic energy.
We account for these changes in K by saying that F has transferred energy
W to or from the object. If energy is transferred to m (its K increases) we
say that work was done by F on the object (W > 0). If on the other hand,
energy is transferred from the object (its K decreases) we say that work
was done by m (W < 0).

Finding an Expression for Work :
Consider a bead of mass m that can move
without friction along a straight wire along
the x-axis. A constant force F applied at an
angle  to the wire is acting on the bead.
We apply Newton's second law: Fx  max . We assume that the bead had an initial
velocity v0 and after it has traveled a distance d its velocity is v . We apply the
third equation of kinematics: v 2  v02  2ax d . We multiply both sides by m / 2 
m 2 m 2 m
m F
m
v  v0  2ax d  2 x d  Fx d  F cos  d .
K i  v02

2 m

m 2
K f  v  The change in kinetic energy K f  K i  Fd cos .
2
Thus the work W done by the force on the bead is given by W  Fx d  Fd cos .
W  Fd cos 
FA
W  F d
W  Fd cos 
FC

m
m
W  F d
FB
The unit of W is the same as that of K , i.e., joules.
Note 1:The expressions for work we have developed apply when F is constant.
Note 2:We have made the implicit assumption that the moving object is point-like.
Note 3: W  0 if 0    90, W  0 if 90    180.
Net Work: If we have several forces acting on a body (say three as in the picture)
there are two methods that can be used to calculate the net work W net .
Method 1: First calculate the work done by each force: W A by force FA ,
W B by force FB , and W C by force FC . Then determine W net W A W B W C .
Method 2: Calculate first Fnet  FA  FB  FC ; then determine W net  F  d .

Properties of Work
• Only the force component along the object’s
displacement will contribute to work.
• The force component perpendicular to the
displacement does zero work.
• A force does positive work when it has a vector
component in the same direction displacement,
• A force does negative work when it has a vector
component in the opposite direction.
• Work is a scalar quantity.

Work-Kinetic Energy Theorem
We have seen earlier that K f  K i  Wnet .
m
m
We define the change in kinetic energy as
K  K f  K i . The equation above becomes
the work-kinetic energy theorem:

The work-kinetic energy theorem holds for both positive and negative values of Wnet .
If
Wnet  0  K f  Ki  0  K f  Ki
If
Wnet  0  K f  Ki  0  K f  Ki

Figure 7-4a shows two industrial spies sliding an initially
stationary 225 kg floor safe a displacement d of
magnitude 8.50 m, straight toward their truck.

002 is 10.0 N, directed at 40° above the horizontal. The
magnitudes and directions of these forces do not
change as the safe moves, and the floor and safe make

 across a slick,
oily parking lot through a displacement d while a
steady wind pushes against the crate with a force

The wind force does negative work, i.e.
kinetic energy is taken out of the crate.

Work Done by the Gravitational Force :
Consider a tomato of mass m that is thrown upward at point A
with initial speed v0 . As the tomato rises, it slows down by the
gravitational force Fg so that at point B it has a smaller speed v.
The work Wg  A  B  done by the gravitational force on the
tomato as it travels from point A to point B is
Wg  A  B   mgd cos180   mgd .
The work Wg  B  A  done by the gravitational force on the
tomato as it travels from point B to point A is

Work Done by a Force in Lifting an Object :
The work-kinetic energy theorem states that K  K f  K i W net .
We also have that K i  K f  K  0 W net  0. There are two forces
acting on the object: The gravitat ional force Fg and the applied force F
that lifts the object. W net W a  A  B  W g  A  B   0 
W a  A  B   W g  A  B  .

Sample Problem 7-4
Let us return to the lifting feats of Andrey
Chemerkin and Paul Anderson.
• (a) Chemerkin made his record-breaking lift with rigidly
connected objects (a barbell and disk weights) having a total
mass m = 260.0 kg; he lifted them a distance of 2.0 m. During
the lift, how much work
was done on the objects by the

gravitational force Fg acting on them?
SOLUTION:
The gravitational force points down and the
displacement d points up :
Wg (up path)  mgd cos   (2548 N) (2.0 m) (cos 180 )
  5100 J
The work done by the gravitational force is negative
23
to the work done by the applied force.
(b) How much work was done on the objects by
Chemerkin's force during the lift?
SOLUTION:
The work done by the applied force is :
WAC (up)   Wg (up)   5100 J
(c) While Chemerkin held the objects
stationary above his head, how much work
was done on them by his force?
Since the displacement d is zero, the work done is zero.

(d) How much work was done by the force Paul
Anderson applied to lift objects with a total weight
of 27 900 N, a distance of 1.0 cm?
SOLUTION:
The work done by the applied force of Paul Anderson is :
WPA (up path)   Wg (up path)

Sample Problem 7-5
• An initially stationary 15.0 kg
crate of cheese wheels is
pulled, via a cable, a distance
L = 5.70 m up a frictionless
ramp, to a height h of 2.50 m,
where it stops (Fig. 7-8a).
(a) How much work W g is
done on the crate by
 the
gravitational force Fg during
the lift?
26
13
12/04/32
SOLUTION:
The work done by the gravitational
force during the lift is negative :
Wg (up path)   mg sin  d
Since d sin  = h, we have :
Wg (up path)   mgh
  (15.0 kg) (9.8 m / s 2 ) (2.50 m)
  368 J
27
(b) How much work WT is done on the crate by
the force
from the cable during the lift?
T
SOLUTION:
Since the crate has zero velocity
before and after the lift, the work
done by the applied force must be
equal and opposite to the work
done by the gravitational force.
WT   Wg (up path)  368 J

29
SOLUTION:

The Spring Force :
Fig. a shows a spring in its relaxed state. In fig. b
we pull one end of the spring and stretch it by an
amount d . The spring resists by exerting a force F
on our hand in the opposi te direction.
In fig. c we push one end of the spring and compress
it by an amount d . Again the spring resists by
exerting a force F on our hand in the opposite
direction.
The force F exerted by the spring on whatever agent (in the picture it is our
hand) is trying to change its natural length either by extending or by
compressing it is given by the equation F  kx. Here x is the amount by
which the spring has been extended or compressed. This equation is known
as "Hooke's law" and k is known as the "spring constant" F  kx

(in this case our hand) that changed the spring length. We
assume that the spring is massless and that it obeys Hooke's law.

Sample Problem 7-8
• In Fig. 7-11, a cumin canister of mass m = 0.40 kg
slides across a horizontal frictionless counter with
speed v = 0.50 m/s. It then runs into and compresses a

Work Done by a Variable Force F( x ) Acting Along the x - Axis :
A force F that is not constant but instead varies as a function of x
is shown in fig. a. We wish to calculate the work W that F does
on an object it moves from position xi to position x f .
We partition the interval  xi , x f
 into N "elements" of length
x each, as is shown in fig. b. The work done by F in the jth
interval is W j  Fj ,avg x, where Fj ,avg is the average value of F
N
over the j -th element. W   Fj ,avg x. We then take the limit of

Unit of P : The SI unit of power is the watt. It is defined as the power
of an engine that does work W = 1 J in a time t = 1 second.
A commonly used non-SI power unit is the horsepower (hp), defined as
1 hp = 746 W.
The kilowatt-hour The kilowatt-hour (kWh) is a unit of work. It is defined
as the work performed by an engine of power P = 1000 W in a time t = 1 hour ,
W  Pt  1000  3600  3.60 10 6 J . The kWh is used by electrical utility

The kinetic energy of the box is not changing.
The speed of the box remains at 3 m/s. The49net

(b) If the magnitude of F2 is, instead, 6.0 N, what
now is the net power, and is it changing?
SOLUTION:
