1 00:00:03,580 --> 00:00:06,580 We are now going to derive the work-energy principle. 2 00:00:06,580 --> 00:00:09,880 We're going to do so by using Newton's second law, 3 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:13,180 but we're not going to consider it with respect to time 4 00:00:13,180 --> 00:00:15,100 as what we've previously done, but we're now 5 00:00:15,100 --> 00:00:18,070 going to consider it with respect to space. 6 00:00:18,070 --> 00:00:21,730 So F equals ma, and we're going to take 7 00:00:21,730 --> 00:00:24,130 the x component of that. 8 00:00:24,130 --> 00:00:26,560 And now, we're going to integrate this. 9 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:32,380 So Fx dx prime, and it runs from x prime equals 10 00:00:32,380 --> 00:00:37,420 x initial to some final value. 11 00:00:37,420 --> 00:00:43,030 And then over here, we're going to pull the m out. m integral, 12 00:00:43,030 --> 00:00:49,390 and it also goes from some initial to some final value. 13 00:00:49,390 --> 00:00:53,860 And we're going to have ax dx. 14 00:00:53,860 --> 00:00:58,570 We have previously shown that this integral here 15 00:00:58,570 --> 00:01:05,590 is one-half v final squared minus v initial squared. 16 00:01:05,590 --> 00:01:07,930 And if we're going to plug this in here, 17 00:01:07,930 --> 00:01:11,910 we're going to get that this expression is 18 00:01:11,910 --> 00:01:18,610 one-half mv final squared minus v initial squared. 19 00:01:18,610 --> 00:01:20,710 And you should recognize this term. 20 00:01:20,710 --> 00:01:26,060 This is the change in kinetic energy. 21 00:01:26,060 --> 00:01:29,620 And what we have here, on the other side, 22 00:01:29,620 --> 00:01:35,200 this integral fx dx is defined to be 23 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,789 the work-- work done on the system, which 24 00:01:39,789 --> 00:01:42,400 we're going to call w. 25 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,390 And that work done on the system, 26 00:01:45,390 --> 00:01:48,110 it's change in kinetic energy. 27 00:01:48,110 --> 00:01:51,116 So this is the work-energy principle.
