Term 2 Week 3 2018

Homework:

  • Ex 4J, p. 143-147 Energy, Work, Power
  • Ex 4I, p.137-141, Springs
  • Ex 4G, p. 125-130, Torque, Static Moments
Torque
𝝉 = F L⦜
𝝉: Torque (Nm)
F: applied Force (N)
L⦜: Length of lever at right angles to the applied force (m)

  • Torque (Moments) in Level 2 Physics will involve Static Systems
  • Therefore the Torques are balanced and the Forces are balanced - Newton's Laws of Motion apply to turning forces as well as linear forces
  • PhET - Torque Balancing Act simulation

Work
Work is a transformation (change) of energy from one form to another form. Work only occurs when something is done.

  • Power is the rate at which energy is transformed
  • Power is the rate at which work is done
  • Unit of power Watt (W = J/s)
Power vs Energy

Term 2 Week 1 2018

Homework

  • Ex 4J, p. 143-147 Energy, Work, Power

Energy
Energy can never be created
Energy can never be destroyed
Energy can only change its form (Work is done)
Energy has the ability to make something happen, i.e. to do Work
The unit for energy is the Joule (J)
J = Kgm2s-2  in fundamental units
