Newtons first law — Inertia
An object at rest remains at rest, and an object in motion remains in motion at constant speed and in a straight line unless acted on by an unbalanced force.

4.3 Force and work
Slide 14 - Slide
work
Forces cause objects to accelerate (change speed).
Changing in speed means an object gains or looses kinetic energy (movement energy)
Work is a measure of how much kinetic energy a force transfers to an object.
Slide 15 - Slide
Work
W: the work that the force has carried out (the amount of kinetic energy a force has transferred to an object).
F: The magnitude of the force acting out the work.
S: The distance this work caused the object to move.
W=F⋅s
Slide 16 - Slide
Work
W: the work that the force has carried out (the amount of kinetic energy a force has transferred to an object).
F: The magnitude of the force acting out the work.
S: The distance this work caused the object to move.
W=F⋅s
A force that causes an object to move is called a motive force

Practice problem
Jane and Wendy are going on holiday. They attach their caravan to the car and drive to the campsite, 50 km away (figure 2). The car exerts a pulling force of 1.2 kN on the caravan.
Calculate the work done on the caravan.
Slide 19 - Slide
Work and energy
work is related to energy.
1 Newton-meter of work = 1 joule of energy
When considering for example a carengine, the work done by the car comes from the useful energy supplied by the engine.

Work and energy
η=EtotEused⋅100
Eused=work

Practice problem
Dimah uses the setup in figure 4 to determine the efficiency of a small electric motor. The motor takes 6.0 s to pull the wood block 1.8 m. During those 6.0 s, the voltmeter reads 1.5 V and the ammeter 0.64 A. The tractive force acting on the wood block is 2.5 N.
