Work is _________ acting upon an object to cause displacement.
force
What is the formula for power?
power = w/t
power = force x velocity
An object in motion has _________ energy.
kinetic

If no displacement happens, then no __________ happens.
work
What is the unit for power?
watt
What is the formula for potential energy?
PE = m x g x h
mass x gravity x height

A waiter carries a tray full of meals above his head by one arm across the room.
Is work being done?
Bob and Alice ran up a hill. Bob is twice as massive as Alice; yet Alice ascends the same distance in half the time. Who has the most power?
they have the same amount of power
Alice does one-half the work yet does it one-half the time. The reduction in work done is compensated for by the reduction in time.
A bicycle has a kinetic energy of 100 Joules.
What kinetic energy would the bicycle have if it had twice the mass and was moving at the same speed?

Caitlyn
Same amount of work but less time.
490 J
A 10-N force is applied to push a block across a frictional surface for a displacement of 5.0 m to the right.
Which forces cause work?
Fapp and Ffrict cause work.
