Lecture
Work, Power
Description
This lecture covers the concepts of work and power, starting with the definition of work for an infinitesimal displacement. It then explores examples, such as the work done by weight in ballistic motion. The lecture also delves into the calculation of power, providing real-world examples of power magnitudes, from low consumption light bulbs to the power generated by the sun. The importance of understanding work and power in various contexts, from human physiology to engineering, is emphasized.
