GPE=WhGPE=Wh
We can calculate the change in gravitational potential energy (GPE) for a moving object using the formula below:
Change in GPE = Weight x Change in height
GPE=Wh
GPE measured in Joules (J)
Weight measured in Newtons (N)
Height measured in Metres (m)

A parachutistA parachutist
A parachutist of weight 600N jumps from a plane, 2000m above the ground.
How much gravitational potential energy will she have lost when she reaches the ground?
Change in GPE = Weight x change in height
= W x h
= 600N x 2 000m
= 1 200 000 J

Mass and speedMass and speed
If you increase the mass of a moving object you increase the kinetic energy.
If you double the mass, you double the kinetic energy.
If you increase the speed of a moving object you increase the kinetic energy.
BUT… If you double the speed, you quadruple the kinetic energy.
This is why even if you are slightly above the speed limit, you increase the kinetic energy of a moving car a lot, this means it is harder to stop the car and there is more chance of an accident.

KE=½m(v)²KE=½m(v)²
We can calculate the kinetic energy (KE) for a moving object using the formula below:
Kinetic Energy = ½x mass x(velocity)2
KE=½mv2
KE measured in Joules (J)
Mass measured in Kilograms (Kg)
Velocity measured in Metres per second (ms-1)

Some questions…Some questions…2) What is the kinetic energy of a 100g tennis ball being thrown at a speed of 5m/s?
KE = ½ mv2
KE = ½ x 0.1 x 52 KE = 1.25 J
3) A braking force of 1000N is applied by a driver to stop his car. The car covered 50m before it stopped. How much work did the brakes do?
(This equals the kinetic energy of the car)
Work done = Force x distance = 1000N x 50m = 50,000 J

4) A crane is lifting a 50kg load up into the air with a constant speed. If the load is raised by 200m how much work has the crane done?
(The answer isn’t 10,000J * remember 1Kg = 10 N )
Work done = Force x distance = 500N x 200m = 100,000 J
