Chpter3 Work&Energy

The document discusses the principles of energy methods in dynamics. It covers the following key points in 3 sentences: Work relates the displacement of an object to the force applied and the direction of motion. Kinetic energy is defined as one-half the mass times the velocity squared, and results from work being done on an object to change its speed. Potential energy is the energy an object has due to its position or state, such as due to its height in a gravitational field, and is the work required to move an object to that position against conservative forces.

Principle of Energy Methods

Principles of work and energy relates between the change in


position of an object to the change in its velocity..
If an object is displaced, it will have work or a certain level of
energy to move. During the displacement process, unbalance
force occur.
When the unbalanced force is considered, 2 cumulative
results happen. The first one leads to the development of
equations of work and energy. 2nd one leads to the
development of impulse and momentum equation
Work

Work relates the vector force F with the displacement vector


s as in Figure 1. In mathematical definition work is obtain by
performing dot matrix multiplication of 2 vectors.
The multiplication can be performed in this form to obtain
the scalar magnitude of work;
Fx U FTs

Unit or work is Nm or J (Joule)


Work

In curvilinear motion, the work F during a small dr


displacement of a moving particle, shown in Figure 2.

Work

In s small displacement, dr can be replaced with ds in


tangential direction, where finite work is expressed in
dU Ft ds

Ft is tangential force component in line with ds. The


representation of dU is as in Figure 3

position s2 , then total work

When the force is as a function of displacement, the

integration means calculation of area under the graph will


represent distance s
Work In Linear Spring

If a particle is attached to one end of a fixed spring as in


Figure 4, without any pulling force applied to the spring, the
spring is unstretched. Applying pulling force will cause the
spring stretched to a distance.
For linear spring, the pulling force linearly corresponds with
the extension of spring as in Figure 4(a) with constant k value
that is the spring constant in N/m.

Work of Weight

When the altitude variations of a displaced particle is small, the


acceleration due to gravity can be considered constant. Figure
5 shows the particles displaced to a new location from 1 to 2.
The work of weight purely depending on the vertical distance,
while horizontal movement do not contribute to work.

The work done is independent


of the path motion, but relies on the height difference.
Kinetic Energy

Figure 6 shows a particle moves as an external force applied


to it. The work of the moving particle following a curvilinear
path can be defined as;

Figure 7 illustrates a car (particle)changes the velocity from v1


to v2. The changing velocity is due to the work done to the
car resulting kinetic energy alteration.

Kinetic Energy

In other words, the particle's initial kinetic energy plus work


done by all forces acting in the particle as it moves from
initial to final position is equal the particle's final kinetic
energy.

Potential Energy

Particle of mass m in in earth surface will experience earth


gravitational constant , the conservative gravitational
potential energy Vg is defined as the work done of the
weight to elevate a particle from initial height h1 to final
height h2 . Refer Figure 8
Potential Energy

The change of potential energy Vg mgh2 h1


The work done on the elastic spring to deform as in Figure 10,
is stored in the spring and its called conservative elastic
potential energy.
The change in potential energy is calculated based on the
final stretched x2 and the inital stretched x1 of the linear
elastic spring. The unstretchewd length is used for reference.
If deformation, compressive of tensile, the change of
potential energy of the spring is

Non Conservative Work & Energy Equation

When a particle is acted upon by a system both non


conservative (external) and conservative (related to gravity,
velocity and elastic spring), the principle of work and energy
will be;
U12 T Vg Ve

U12 : Work of all external non conservative forces

Vg : Potential energy change due to gravity (vertical dir)

Ve : Potential energy change due to spring deformation

T : Potential energy change due to velocity alteration


Energy Equation

Previous equation if written in terms of its states,


T1 Vg1 Ve1 U12 T2 Vg 2 Ve 2
This equation tells that the state of initial total energy will be
changed if a non conservative work, due to external force is
applied to the system.
Conservation Of Energy

Consider the state energy equation as previous,


T1 Vg1 Ve1 U12 T2 Vg 2 Ve 2

When no nonconservative forces (external)are applied to the


particle, the non conservative work U12 does not exist.
U 1 2 0
T1 V g 1 V e1 T2 V g 2 V e 2

It can be stated that in the absent of non conservative force,


the sum of all energies in the system is always constant. This
is the principles of Conservation Of Energy. K = constant
T V K
Power

The capacity of system is measured by the time rate at which


it can do work or deliver energy. In another word, power is
equals to the time rate of doing work.

Unit is Nm/s = J/s = Watt = W
Another unit is Horse Power (HP)

Mechanical devices involve moving parts, there will always


be some loss of energy due to negative work of kinetic
friction forces.

In addition to energy loss, some other effcicency loss may
occur that is electrical efficiency, thermal efficiency must be
taken into account
