Class 9 Science Chapter 2 Work and Energy Textbook Questions and Answers

a. Explain the difference between potential energy and kinetic energy.

 Kinetic Energy Potential Energy (i) Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by the body due to its motion. (i) Potential energy is the energy possessed by the body because of its shape or position. (ii) K.E = 1/2 mv2 (ii) P.E = mgh (iii) e.g., flowing water, such as when falling from a waterfall. (iii) e.g., water at the top of a waterfall, before the drop.

b. Derive the formula for the kinetic energy of an object of mass m, moving with velocity v.
Suppose a stationary object of mass ‘m’ moves because of an applied force. Let ‘u’ be its initial velocity (here u = 0). Let the applied force be ‘F’. This generates an acceleration a in the object, and after time T, the velocity of the object becomes equal to ‘v’. The displacement during this time is s. The work done on the object is
W = F x s ……………….. (1)
Using Newton’s 2nd law of motion,
F = ma ……………….. (2)
Using Newton’s 2nd equation of motion
$$s=u t+\frac{1}{2} a t^{2}$$
However, as initial velocity is zero, u = 0

c. Prove that the kinetic energy of a freely falling object on reaching the ground is nothing but the transformation of its initial potential energy.
Let us look at the kinetic and potential energies of an object of mass (m), falling freely from height (h), when the object is at different heights.

As shown in the figure, the point A is at a height (h) from the ground. Let the point B be at a distance V, vertically below A. Let the point C be on the ground directly below A and B. Let us calculate the energies of the object at A, B and C.

(1) Let the velocity of the object be vB when it reaches point B, having fallen through a distance x.

(2) When the object is stationary at A, its initial velocity is u = 0
∴ K.E = 1/2 mass x velocity2

(3) Let the velocity of the object be vc when it reaches the ground, near point C.

From equations (i) and (iii) we see that the total potential energy of the object at its initial position is the same as the kinetic energy at the ground.

d. Determine the amount of work done when an object is displaced at an angle of 300 with respect to the direction of the applied force.
When an object is displaced by displacement ‘s’ and by applying force ‘F’ at an ’angle’ 30°. work done can be given as

e. If an object has 0 momenta, does it have kinetic energy? Explain your answer.

• No, it does not have kinetic energy if it does not have momentum.
• Momentum is the product of mass and velocity. If it is zero, it implies that v = 0 (since mass can never be zero).
• Now K.E = ~ mv2, So if v = 0 then K.E also will be zero.
• Thus, if an object has no momentum then it cannot possess kinetic energy.

f. Why is the work done on an object moving with uniform circular motion zero?

• In uniform circular motion, the force acting on an object is along the radius of the circle.
• Its displacement is along the tangent to the circle. Thus, they are perpendicular to each other.
Hence θ = 90° and cos 90 = θ
∴ W = Fs cos θ = 0

A rocket of mass 100 tonnes is propelled with a vertical velocity 1 km/s. Calculate kinetic energy.

The kinetic energy of the rocket is 5 x 1010 J

Type – C

Formula:
$$\text { 1) Power }=\frac{\text { work }}{\text { time }}=\frac{\text { mgh }}{t}$$

Power should be expressed in kW
Time should be expressed in hours
1 k Wh = 1 unit

Question 10.
Swaralee takes 20 s to carry a bag weighing 20 kg to a height of 5 m. How much power has she used?
Given:
Mass (m) = 20 kg
Height (h) = 5 m
Time (t) = 20s
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s2
To Find:
Power (P) = ?
Formula:
$$\mathrm{P}=\frac{\mathrm{mgh}}{\mathrm{t}}$$
Solution:
\begin{aligned} P &=\frac{m g h}{t} \\ &=20 \times 9.8 \times \frac{5}{20} \\ &=9.8 \times 5 \end{aligned}
= 49 W
Power used by Swaralee is 49 W

Write notes on the following:

Question 1.
Derive the expression for potential energy.
(i) To carry an object of mass ‘m’ to a height ‘h’ above the earth’s surface, a force equal to ‘mg’ has to be used against the direction of the gravitational force.

(ii) The amount of work done can be calculated as follows:
Work = force x displacement
∴ W = mg x h
∴ W = mgh

(iii) The amount of potential energy stored in the object because of its displacement.
PE = mgh (W = P.E)

(iv) Displacement to height h causes energy equal to mgh to be stored in the object.

Question 2.
When can you say that the work done is either positive, negative or zero?

• When the force and the displacement are in the same direction, the work done by the force is positive.
• When the force and displacement are in the opposite directions, the work done by the force is negative.
• When the applied force does not cause any displacement or when the force and the displacement are perpendicular to each other, the work done by the force is zero.

Question 3.
Explain the relation between, the commercial and SI unit of energy.
The commercial unit of energy is a kilowatt-hour (kWh) while the SI unit of energy is the joule. Their relation is
1 kWh = 1kW x 1hr
= 1000 Wx 3600 s
= 3600000J
(Watt x Sec = Joule)
1 kWh = 3.6 x 106 J.

Question 4.
How is work calculated if the direction of force and the displacement are inclined to each other?

If the direction of force and the displacement are inclined to each other then, we must convert the applied force into the force acting along the direction of displacement.

If θ is angle between force and displacement, then force (F1) in direction of displacement is

Write effects of the following with examples.

Question 1.
Force

• A force can move a stationary object. The force of engine makes a stationery car to move.
• A force can stop a moving object. The force of brakes can stop a moving car.
• A force can change the speed of a moving object. When a hockey player hits a moving ball, the speed of ball increases.
• A force can change the direction of a moving object. In the game of carrom ,when we take a rebound then the direction of striker changes because the edge of the carrom board exerts a force on the strike.
• A force can change the shape and size of an object. The shape of kneaded wet clay changes when a potter converts it into pots of different shapes and sizes because the p otter applies force on the kneaded wet clay.

Question 1.
………….. is the measure of energy transfer when a force (F) moves an object through a ………….. (d). So when ………….. is done, energy has been transferred from one energy store to another, and so: energy transferred = ………….. done. Energy transferred and work done are both measured in ………….. (J)

Activity-based questions

Question 1.
State the expression for work done when displacement and force makes an angle θ OR State the expression for work done when force is applied making an angle θ with the horizontal force.

Let ‘F’ be the applied force and Fj be its component in the direction of displacement. Let ’S’ be the displacement.

The amount of work done is given by W = F1s ……………………………………… (1)
The force ‘F’ is applied in the direction of the string.

Let ‘θ’ be the angle that the string makes with the horizontal. We can determine the component ‘F1‘, of this force F, which acts in the horizontal direction by means of trigonometry.
\begin{aligned} \cos \theta=\frac{\text { base }}{\text { hypotenuse }} \\ \therefore \quad \cos \theta=\frac{\mathrm{F}_{1}}{\mathrm{~F}} \\ \therefore \quad \mathrm{F}_{1}=\mathrm{F} & \cos \theta \end{aligned}
Substituting the value of F1 in equation 1
Thus, the work done by F1 is
W cos θ s
∴ W = Fscosθ

Question 2.
When a body is dropped on the ground from some height its P.E is converted into K.E but when it strikes the ground and it stops, what happens to the K.E?
When a body is dropped on the ground, its K.E appears in the form of:

• Heat (collision between the body and the ground).
• Sound (collision of the body with the ground).
• The potential energy of change in state of the body and the ground.
• Kinetic energy is also utilized to do work i.e., the ball bounces to a certain height and moves to a certain distance vertically and horizontally till Kinetic energy becomes zero.
• The process in which the kinetic energy of a freely falling body is lost in an unproductive chain of energy is called the dissipation of energy.
