Learning Goal:
To understand the meaning and possible applications of the work-energy theorem.
Find the net work W done on the particle by the external forces during the particle's motion.
In this problem, you will use your prior knowledge to derive one of the most important relationships
in mechanics: the work-energy theorem. We will start with a special case: a particle of mass m
moving in the x direction at constant acceleration a. During a certain interval of time, the particle
accelerates from Vị to vf, undergoing displacement s given by s = af
Express your answer in terms of F and s.

In this lab, we will explore the relationships between work, kinetic energy, potential energy, and even power through some makeshift pulley systems. In you lab kit, you should find thread, the ping pong ball and marble, and the measuring tape. You will also need tape to adhere your thread, to both balls and a timer. You will need to adjust your set up, so make sure your tape can be removed. Find furniture in your home you can use to set up the pulley system pictured to the right. Ideally, both the marble and ping pong ball would be able to hang freely without any normal force acting on them. First, we will bring the heavier ball close to the top of our pulley system and allow it to fall, pulling the lighter ball up a distance. We will then calculate the work done by gravity on the heavier ball and the potential energy gained by the lighter ball. In order to do this, we must measure some quantities first. Fill in the table below with your measurements. Mass…arrow_forward
