f) Power is the rate of doing work
Power (In Watts) = work done (in Joules) / time (in seconds)
g) 1 watt is the rate of working at one Joule per second
13. P = Wd/t = 1000/5 = 200W
14. P = Wd/t
Work done = force x distance = 300 x 2
P = 600/6 = 100W
15. P = Wd/t
Work done = f x d = 3000 x 10
P = 30000/4 = a) 7500W => b) 7.5kW

P4 IGCSE Physics Student Objectives
Dear Y11 Physicists, 
Thanks to Sanyam for spotting a typo in the paper versions of Obj 4.4 of the attached. Corrected version attached.
[cid:image001.jpg@01CC7862.AD9DA660]
Note that this formula is correct (gives answer as a number between 1 and 0) and the same formula x 100 is also correct (gives answer as a %)
Cheers,
Mr B

Answers:
f) Power is the rate of doing work
Power (In Watts) = work done (in Joules) / time (in seconds)
g) 1 watt is the rate of working at one Joule per second
13. P = Wd/t = 1000/5 = 200W
14. P = Wd/t
Work done = force x distance = 300 x 2
P = 600/6 = 100W
15. P = Wd/t
Work done = f x d = 3000 x 10
P = 30000/4 = a) 7500W => b) 7.5kW

· 4.15 use the relationship between power, work done (energy transferred) and time taken:
power = work done P = Wd
time taken t
P = Wd / t
P = E / t
P = Power (Watts, W)
Wd = Work Done (Joules, J)
E = Energy Transferred (Joules, J)
t = Time (s)

· 4.14 describe power as the rate of transfer of energy or the rate of doing work
"Rate" just means "divided by time" (see Entrance Activity)
So
Power = Energy / Time
or
Power = Work done / Time

Answers PFY p121
a) W = m x g --> W = 50 x 10 = 500N CORRECT
b) GPE = W x h --> 500 x 4 = 2000J CORRECT
c) Total E at Start = Total E at End --> 2000J = KE + 0 --> 2000J CORRECT
Answers PFY p91
a) GPE = mgh --> 35 x 10 x 30 = 10500J CORRECT
b) GPE at top = KE at bottom --> KE = 1/2 mv^2 --> v = sqr(10500/(35/2)) = 24.5 m/s CORRECT
c) There is friction from the snow and the sledge, which converts the KE into heat energy; therefore not all of the GPE is transferred to KE as that energy is 'wasted' CORRECT

· Imagine pushing a king sized bed from one side of the classroom to the other
· Would it make you feel tired?
o Yup!
· Would you have to work hard to push it?
o Yup!
· What could you change so you have to do less work pushing?
o Anything that decreases the force needed (reduce friction by putting wheels on it, ice under it, etc)
o Anything that decreases the distance travelled (only push it half way!, etc)
o So the formula for work must contain force and distance
