WORK
2.10 Work, energy, power and efficiencyWork
Work is defined as the product of the force, F and the distance travelled, s in the direction of force.
2.10 Work, energy, power and efficiencyWork
Work = F(N) x s(m)
*Unit = Nm or J
2.10 Work, energy, power and efficiencyWork
When the force and the direction of motion of an object are perpendicular to each other, the work done is equal to zero.
2.10 Work, energy, power and efficiencyWork
If the direction of the force acts on an object is different from the direction of the motion, therefore we need to get the component of the force in the direction of motion.

ENERGY
2.10 Work, energy, power and efficiencyEnergy
• When work is done, energy is consumed.• Energy is the ability to do work.• Mechanical energy is divided into–Kinetic energy –Potential energy
–The unit for energy is J (Joule)

PRINCIPLE OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY
Principle of conservation of energy states that ENERGY CANNOT BE CREATED OR DESTROYED. It can be transformed from one form to another, but the total energy in a system is constant.

EFFICIENCY
2.10 Work, energy, power and efficiency
Work can be done by machine when input energy is supplied.
If a machine does least work from the supplied energy, it is said to be non-efficient.
EFFICIENCY

The efficiency of a machine is defined as

If efficiency = 100%, then useful energy output = energy input perfect device
In general, the efficiency for all machines is less than 100% because the work done against friction when operating a machine.

ExampleA crane lifts a load of 500 kg to a
height of 120 m in 16 s.If the power input is 45000 W, what is
the efficiency of the motor used in the crane?
