Kinematics

A machine is a device that accepts energy in some available form and utilizes it to do a type of work. Energy, work, or power has to be transferred from one mechanical part to another to run a machine. While the transfer of energy between two machine par…

Kinetic Energy and Work-Energy Theorem

In physics, work is the product of the net force in direction of the displacement and the magnitude of this displacement or it can also be defined as the energy transfer of an object when it is moved for a distance due to the forces acting on it in the d…

Textbook Question

Chapter 29, Problem 64PCE

Predict/Calculate Consider a baseball with a rest mass of 0.145 kg. (a) How much work is required to increase the speed of the baseball from 25.0 m/s to 35.0 m/s? (b) Is the work required to increase the speed of the baseball from 200,000,025 m/s to 200,000,035 m/s greater than, less than, or the same as the amount found in part (a)? Explain. (c) Calculate the work required for the increase in speed indicated in part (b).
