This document contains an evaluation for a lesson on work, power, and energy. It includes picture analysis questions to define terms like work, potential energy, and kinetic energy based only on illustrations. There are also essay questions about how normal force and static friction do zero work on an object and how kinetic energy changes with speed. Finally, there are problem solving questions involving calculations of speed, energy, force, and power for scenarios like a car accelerating from rest and a ball launched from a cliff.

EVALUATION Direction: Each part of the test has instructions on what to do. Answer what is asked. A. PICTURE ANALYSIS: Using one sentence only, define the word/s using only the picture as illustrated. ( 3 points each)
1) Work 2) Potential Energy 3) Kinetic Energy
4) Elastic Potential Energy 5) Power
B. ESSAY: Answer briefly but precise. (5 points each)
1) In most circumstances, the normal force acting on an object and the force of static friction does zero work on the object. However, the reason that the work is zero is different for the two cases. Explain why each does zero work. 2) (a) If the speed of a particle is doubled, what happens to its kinetic energy? (b) What can be said about the speed of a particle if the net work done on it is zero? 2 C. PROBLEM SOLVING: Answer the following with complete details as instructed. (5 points each. Total points 30) 1) A mechanic pushes a car of mass m, doing work W in making it accelerate from rest. Neglecting friction between car and road, (a) what is the final speed of the car? During this time, the car moves a distance d. (b) What constant horizontal force did the mechanic exert on the car? 2. A 0.40 kg ball is launched at a speed of 16 m/s from a 22 m cliff. (a) What are its kinetic energy, potential energy, and total mechanical energy at the instant it was launched? (Use the base of the cliff for your reference level.) (b) If air resistance is negligible what is the kinetic energy just before it hits the ground? Does this answer depend on the direction the ball was launched? (c) At what speed will the ball be moving just prior to striking the ground if air resistance is negligible? 3. A 750-N Marine in basic training climbs a 12.0-m vertical rope at a constant speed in 6.00 s. What is his power output? --------------------------------------------------------------END ------------------------------------------------------------------
