Physics Week 6 Laboratory Report Lab 6a1: Conservation of Energy in Spring Mass System Name: Minwoo Choi Group #3 Date: March 2, 2023 Submission Date: March 9, 2023 Course/Section: Phys111A-002 Professor Apte Partners: Kevin Moranchel, Jake Mulrenan, Aavinaash Rampersad Introduction and Background Our objectives in this lab are to use the work-energy theorem by measuring the force done on the object and kinetic energy along with understanding how the total work done on the object changes the object’s overall energy. Physical work can be defined as the amount of physical effort you exert to achieve change over the time you’re working. In physics, force acting upon an object or change in position can be defined as: W = F x S = Fscos Ø Ø is the angle between force and displacement vectors. Where the direction of force is the same as displacement, work will become: W = Fs Work is scalar with the unit of joule. This is the same unit as energy. The unit of work is the product of force and displacement. The work-energy theorem states that the work done by the net force on an object equals the change in its kinetic energy:
Went = Fnet x s = delta(K)€ = KE2 – KE1 In this lab, we will use a frictionless air-track to demonstrate the work-energy theorem by determining the work done on the glider and change in kinetic energy as its being pulled by constant force.
