NASA Sci Files segment explaining energy and work.
It takes energy to do work.
00:00:00
Energy comes in a variety of forms.
00:00:02
The powder in this funnel has potential energy.
00:00:04
It's changed into heat energy when I blow it through this flame.
00:00:07
If I do work and use my energy to stretch this giant slingshot,
00:00:14
the energy is stored as elastic potential energy.
00:00:18
And when I let go, the energy is changed into energy of motion, or kinetic energy.
00:00:22
Finally!
00:00:28
Flexiglass did the work to stop the tomato.
00:00:30
It takes a lot of work to lift this 25-kilogram anvil.
00:00:33
I have to overcome the pull of gravity.
00:00:36
The anvil now has a lot of gravitational potential energy.
00:00:38
This poor cantaloupe will be smashed when I release the energy by letting go.
00:00:42
Hi, Dr. D.
00:00:53
That was a great show.
00:00:54
I really like the experiments.
00:00:56
Thanks.
00:00:58
By the way, are you working on any projects?
00:00:59
Well, Jacob has broken his foot,
00:01:01
so we're trying to figure out a way to get him back into the treehouse.
00:01:03
We think we can lift him with a rope, if we all work together.
00:01:07
Let's talk a little bit about work.
00:01:10
First, you have to have a force, a push or a pull.
00:01:12
The force alone is not enough.
00:01:15
To do work, the force must be applied through a distance.
00:01:17
Here, hold onto this anvil for me.
00:01:20
Sure, but why?
00:01:23
Why?
00:01:26
Getting tired yet?
00:01:32
You bet.
00:01:33
Because you haven't moved the anvil, you haven't done any work.
00:01:34
Doing work and getting tired are not necessarily the same thing.
00:01:38
Can we put this thing down?
00:01:42
Of course.
00:01:44
Now with the slingshot, I did work when I pulled on the strap
00:01:45
and moved it back about one meter.
00:01:49
When I let go of the strap, the slingshot did work on the tomato
00:01:51
because I pushed it forward and sped it up.
00:01:54
I love the slap.
00:01:56
Now with the 25-kilogram anvil,
00:01:58
I had to supply a force of about 55 pounds,
00:02:00
going against gravity as I picked it up.
00:02:03
The higher I lifted the anvil, the more work I did
00:02:05
and the more gravitational energy the anvil had.
00:02:08
Then the anvil must have had a lot of energy
00:02:11
because it sure crushed the cantaloupe.
00:02:13
But Jacob is heavier than 55 pounds.
00:02:15
Does that mean it would take more work to lift him?
00:02:18
Yes, that's right.
00:02:20
Since work is equal to force times distance,
00:02:21
increasing either the force or the distance will require more work.
00:02:23
You said it took energy to do work.
00:02:27
So where did the energy come from to lift the anvil?
00:02:29
The energy came from the corn flakes I had for breakfast this morning.
00:02:32
Corn gets energy from the sun.
00:02:35
It's going to take a lot of energy to lift Jacob into the treehouse.
00:02:37
I think it's going to take all our energy to do the job.
00:02:40
Thanks, Dr. D.
00:02:43
You're welcome.
00:02:44
Bye.
