Conclusion

• If the work is positive then it is called MOTIVE

• If the work is negative then it is called RESISTIVE

• The work done by a force is zero when the force is perpendicular

to the displacement cos 90° = 0

• If there are multiple forces acting on an object, the total work done
is the algebraic sum of the amount of work done by each force
Example 1: A 600 𝑁 force is applied by a man to a dresser that
moves 2 𝑚. Find the work done if the force and displacement are:
(a) parallel (b) at right angles (c) oppositely directed (see figure
below); we may imagine that the dresser is being slowed and
brought to rest.
Energy
➢Is the ability to do work
➢ Work and energy are interchangeable even they have the same unit the
joule (J).

Mechanical Energy
It could be one of two types or their sum:
1- Kinetic Energy
2- Potential energy
a- Gravitational b- Elastic
Kinetic Energy
➢ Energy associated with the motion of an object
The work-energy principle
Example 2

solution
Potential Energy

• Potential energy is associated with the position of the object

within some system

• Potential energy is a property of the system, not the object

• A system is a collection of objects interacting via forces or

processes that are internal to the system
Power
Example 3
A 70 − 𝑘𝑔 man runs up a flight of stairs 3𝑚 high in 2𝑠. (a) How much work does
he do against gravitational forces? (b) what is his average power output?
ARTERIAL BLOOD PRESSURE

• Definition : Arterial blood pressure can be defined as the lateral

pressure exerted by the moving column of blood on the walls of
the arteries.
SIGNIFICANCE
1. To ensure the blood flow To various organs.
2. Plays an important role in exchange of nutrients and gases
across the capillaries.

Normal Values
1. Normal Adult range, Can fluctuate within a wide range and still
be normal
2. Systolic/diastolic
3. 100/60 - 140/80
Homework

Give the simple concept about the following points

1. SYSTOLIC B.P

2. DIASTOLIC B.P
