WORK, POWER AND ENERGY
WORK
Work is said to be Done, 
if the point of Application of Force moves. 
When Force is Applied 
Actual Place Final Place
For Work to be done, the following conditions must 
be satisfied, 
I. A force must applied. 
II. The applied Force must produce a 
Displacement. 
When Force is Applied 
Actual Place Final Place
The amount of Work done is measured by the 
product of applied Force and the distance through 
which it moves in the direction of Force. 
Actual Place 
Final Place 
When Force is Applied
Why work is Zero ?
If a Force F is applied on a body and Produces 
a Displacement S in its direction, The Work 
done W is given by 
W=F.S 
If S is Zero, No Work is done. 
Unit of Work is Joule 
1Joule = 1N X 1m 
1Joule = Kgm2/s2 
Dimension of Work is M1 L2 T-2
POWER
The Rate of doing Work is Known as Power
• Power is measured by the amount of Work done in One 
Second. 
• If Work W is done in ‘t’ seconds, then Power 
Thus, 
• Smaller the time in which Work is done, the greater is the 
Power. 
• Power is a Scalar Quantity. 
• Unit of Power is Watt. 
• Watt is equal to Joule/second. 
• Watt is equal to Kgm2/s3 . 
• Dimension of power is M1 L2 T-3. 
P=W/T
Energy
• Energy is the Capacity of a body to do 
Work. 
• Energy represents the total amount of 
Work that a Body can do. 
• Unit of Energy is Joule. 
• Joule = Kgm2/s2. 
• Dimension of Energy is M1 L2 T-2.
There are various types of Energy associated with 
material bodies. 
a)Mechanical Energy 
b)Electrostatic Energy 
c)Magnetic Energy 
d)Light Energy 
e)Sound Energy 
f) Chemical Energy....... 
etc
• Mechanical Energy is of two types 
i. Potential Energy 
ii. Kinetic Energy
Potential Energy 
Potential Energy is the Energy Possessed by virtue of its position, 
configuration or intermal mechanics.
Examples: 
a. Water at the top of a Fall.
b. A compressed Spring.
c. A Streched Elastic band.
Expression of Potential Energy 
Let a body of mass ‘m’ be raised to a height ‘h’ from the 
ground. It possesses P.E by virtue of its postion. The 
work done in lifting it is stored as P.E in the body. 
By definition 
Work done = Force X Displacement 
W = F.h 
But the Force acting on the body is its Weight ‘mg’ 
downwards. 
Therefore Work done = mgh. 
This Work done is nothing but the P.E stored in the body. 
therefore 
P.E = mgh
Kinetic Energy 
Kinetic Energy of a body is the Energy Possessed by it by virtue of its 
motion.
• It is measured by the amount of work that the 
body can do before coming to rest. 
Examples: 
a. An Athlete who is running has K.E due to motion.
b. Water flowing in a pipe has K.E which can be 
used to rotate a turbine.
c. A girl dropping ball from her hand. 
d. A boy Pushing a ball from the tip of 
the Hill.
Expression of Kinetic Energy 
Let a body of mass ‘m’ move with a velocity v. Let it be brought to 
rest by applying 
A constant force F. Then the uniform retardation produce in the 
body is a=f/m. 
Let the body travel a distance is before coming to rest. Then 
Work done=Force X displacement 
W = F.S 
Now, the value of retardation is found by the relation 
v2 = u2+2as 
In this case, Initial Velocity is ‘v’ and Final Velocity is ‘0’. 
Therefore 0 = v2 - 2as Or 
a = v2 /2s 
But K.E of the body = work done before the body comes to rest 
K.E = F.s = ma. S 
K.E= m(v2 /2s)
K.E = ½ mv2 or
Principle of Conservation Energy 
The conservation of energy Principle was first 
Stated by the German Phsiologist 
Helmnoltz(1821-1894). 
It is generally regarded as the corner stone of 
physical science. 
A/c to the Principle, 
“Energy can neither be created nor be 
destroyed. It can change one form to another 
so that total Energy always remains 
constant”.
Example: 
Consider the Energy involved in a 
Water-fall. The water at the top of 
the fall P.E is Maximum and K.E is 
Zero. As it falls Ever increasing 
speed, the K.E gradually increases. 
At the bottom of the fall, P.E is 
Zero and K.E is Maximum. Total 
Energy, however, remains constant 
through out the fall.
h

(h-x)

C 
B
Let us discuss the another example, 
Freely falling body 
let a particle of mass ‘m’ be 
at ‘A’ at a height ‘h’ from the 
ground (fig a). Let it fall freely to a 
point ‘B’ on the ground. 
(a) A freely falling body. 
let a particle of mass ‘m’ be at ‘A’ at 
a height ‘h’ from the ground.
(i) At point ‘A’, the body is at rest. Initial 
velocity ‘u’ is Zero and therefore K.E is Also 
Zero. 
P.E of the body = mgh. 
T.E = P.E + K.E 
T.E = mgh + 0 
T.E = mgh (1) 
(ii) Let the body fall through a distance ‘x’ 
below ‘A’. The new position of the body in 
‘c’ at a height (h-x) above the ground. 
At ‘c’, P.E = mg(h-x)
Now velocity, v1 
2 acquired by the 
body in reaching ‘c’ is calculated 
from 
v1 
2 = u2 + 2gx 
v1 
2 = 0 + 2gx 
v1 
2 = 2gx 
But K.E = ½ m v1 
2 
K.E = ½ m (2gx) 
K.E = mgx
T.E = P.E + K.E 
T.E = mg(h-x) + mgx 
T.E = mgh – mgx + mgx 
T.E = mgh (2) 
(iii) At point ‘B’, let V2 be the velocity of the 
body. P.E at B is Zero Since h=0 and 
v2 
2 = u2 + 2gs 
v2 
2 = 0 + 2gh 
v2 
2 = 2gh 
2 
Therefore K.E = ½ mv2 
K.E = ½ m(2gh) = mgh
T.E = P.E + K.E 
T.E = 0 + mgh (3) 
T.E = mgh 
from eq(1) eq(2) and (3) it is clear that 
total energy of the body remains 
constant throughout its motion. 
Therefore Total Energy is constant.
Simple Harmonic Motion
SHM is defined as the motion 
of a particle which moves back 
and forth along a straight line 
such that its acceleration is 
directly proportional to its 
Displacement from a fixed 
point and is always directed 
towards that point.
Note : Harmonic means the motion 
being SINUSOIDAL 
Characteristics of SHM 
(1) The motion of a body 
executing SHM is Periodic. 
(2)The motion of a body is to 
and fro along a straight line 
about the mean position.
(3)Acceleration produced is directly 
proportional to displacement of 
the equilibrium position. 
(4) Acceleration is always directed 
towards the equilibrium position
