    FACTORS AFFECTING POTENTIAL and KINETIC ENERGY

    Uploaded by

    Aaron Manuel Munar
    This document discusses potential and kinetic energy. It defines energy as the ability to do work, and defines potential energy as stored energy due to an object's position or mass and height. Kinetic energy is the energy of moving objects and depends on an object's mass and velocity. Examples are provided of how to calculate potential energy using the formula PE=mgh and kinetic energy using the formula KE=1/2mv^2. Factors that affect each type of energy are identified. Short problems demonstrate calculating each type of energy.

    WHAT IS ENERGY?
    ENERGY
    • It is the ability to do work.
    • Without energy, you cannot do any work.
    • When work is done by an object it loses
    energy and it gains energy.
    • When work is done, energy is transferred.

    ENERGY
    • The energy that possessed
    by an object by the virtue
    of its position.
    • An energy when the work
    POTENTIAL is WAITING to be done,
    ENERGY or when there is the
    potential to be performed.

    PE = mgh
    PE = potential energy in J (Joules)
    m = mass in kg
    g = gravity, which is equal to 9.8 m/s2 (constant)
    h = height m
    PE = mgh
    NOTE: The Potential Energy is directly
    proportional to the mass and height of an object.
    MEANING: The greater the mass and the height of
    an object, the higher the potential energy.
    PE = mgh
    NOTE: Joules = kg . m/s . m

    SOLVE THE PROBLEM
    How much potential energy Solution:
    does a 1.8 kg object has PE = mgh
    from a height of 3 meters? = (1.8 kg)(9.8 m/s2)(3 meters)
    Given: = 52.92 J
    m = 1.8 kg
    ANSWER: 52.92 J
    h = 3 meters
    g = 9.8 m/s2
    PE = ?
    SOLVE THE PROBLEM
    There is a bell at the top of a Solution:
    tower that is 45 m high. The PE = mgh
    bell weighs 190 KG. =

    KINETIC • This means that
    whether an object is
    ENERGY accelerating or in
    constant motion, as
    long as it moves, then
    it has kinetic energy.

    KE = mv 2

    KE = kinetyic energy in J (Joules)


    m = mass in kg
    v = speed in meter per second (m/s)
    NOTE: Do not forget to square the speed when you solve for
    kinetic energy.

    How much kinetic energy Solution:
    is present in a 3.5 kg KE = mv2
    object with a constant =
    speed of 4 m/s? = 28 J
    Given:
    m = 3.5 kg. ANSWER: 28 J
    v = 4 m/s
    KE = ?
