The Ninja, a roller coaster at Six Flags over
Georgia, has a height of 122 ft and a speed of
52 mi/h. The potential energy due to its
height changes into kinetic energy of motion.
Objectives: After completing this
module, you should be able to:
• Define kinetic energy and potential energy,
along with the appropriate units in each
system.
• Describe the relationship between work and
kinetic energy, and apply the WORK-
ENERGY THEOREM.
• Define and apply the concept of POWER,
along with the appropriate units.
Energy
Energy is anything that can be con-
verted into work; i.e., anything that can
exert a force through a distance.

virtue of motion. (Mass with velocity)

If we define kinetic energy as ½mv2 then we
can state a very important physical principle:
F x = - ½ mvo2 F=?

Resultant Force = 19.6 N – kn ; and k = 0.2
Resultant Force = 19.6 N – (0.2)(33.9 N) = 12.8 N
Resultant Force Down Plane = 12.8 N
Example 3 (Cont.): The resultant work on
4-kg block. (x = 40 m and FR = 12.8 N)
