· 4.15 use the relationship between power, work done (energy transferred) and time taken:
power = work done P = Wd
time taken t
P = Wd / t
P = E / t
P = Power (Watts)
Wd = Work Done (Joules)
E = Energy Transferred (Joules)
t = Time (s)
· 4.14 describe power as the rate of transfer of energy or the rate of doing work
"Rate" just means "divided by time" (see Entrance Activity)
So
Power = Energy / Time
or
Power = Work done / Time
· 4.13 understand how conservation of energy produces a link between gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy and work
· 4.12 recall and use the relationship:
kinetic energy = ½ × mass × speed2
KE = ½ × m × v2
· 4.11 recall and use the relationship:
gravitational potential energy = mass × g × height
GPE = m × g × h

1. Copy and complete these sentences.
a) The work done (measured in JOULES) is equal to the WEIGHT (in Newton’s) multiplied by the DISTANCE moved (in metres).
b) 1 Joule is the work done when a force of one NEWTON moves through a distance of 1 METRE (in the direction of force)
c) Work done = ENERGY transferred.
2. A man lifts a parcel weighing 5 Newton’s from the ground to a shelf 2 metres high. How much work does he do on the parcel?
Wd = F * d
Wd = 5 * 2
Wd = 10J
3. A girl weighing 500N climbs 40m vertically when walking up the stairs in an office block. How much work does she do against gravity? What are the energy transfers here?
Wd= F* d
Wd= 500*4
Wd= 2000J

· 4.9 recall and use the relationship between work, force and distance moved in the direction of the force:
work done = force × distance moved
Wd = F × d

Tell the person next to you...
· Imagine pushing a king sized bed from one side of the classroom to the other
· Would it make you feel tired?
o Yup!
· Would you have to work hard to push it?
o Yup!
· What could you change so you have to do less work pushing?
o Anything that decreases the force needed (reduce friction by putting wheels on it, ice under it, etc)
o Anything that decreases the distance travelled (only push it half way!, etc)
o So the formula for work must contain force and distance
· 4.7 describe the role of convection in everyday phenomena
