Given Information:
Mass of elephant = m = 750 kg
Height = h = 14.3 m
time = t = 30 seconds
Required Information:
Power needed to lift elephant = P = ?
Answer:
Power needed to lift elephant ≈ 3507 watts
Explanation:
As we know power is given by
P = PE/t
Where PE is the potential energy and t is the time
Potential energy is given by
PE = mgh
Where m is the mass of elephant, g is the gravitational acceleration and h is the height to lift the elephant.
PE = 750*9.81*14.3
PE = 105212.25 Joules
Therefore, the required power to lift the elephant is
P = PE/t
P = 105212.25/30
P ≈ 3507 watts
Compute the ball's angular speed <em>v</em> :
<em>v</em> = (1 rev) / (2.3 s) • (2<em>π</em> • 180 cm/rev) • (1/100 m/cm) ≈ 4.917 m/s
Use this to find the magnitude of the radial acceleration <em>a</em> :
<em>a</em> = <em>v </em>²/<em>R</em>
where <em>R</em> is the radius of the circular path. We get
<em>a</em> = <em>v</em> ² / (180 cm) = <em>v</em> ² / (1.8 m) ≈ 13.43 m/s²
The only force acting on the ball in the plane parallel to the circular path is the tension force. By Newton's second law, the net force acting on the ball has magnitude
∑ <em>F</em> = <em>m</em> <em>a</em>
where <em>m</em> is the mass of the ball. So, if <em>t</em> denotes the magnitude of the tension force, then
<em>t</em> = (1.6 kg) (13.43 m/s²) ≈ 21 N
Answer:
Sound energy (that is, mechanical vibrational waves passing through an elastic medium) is a combination of kinetic and potential energies. As the wave compresses the medium (storing elastic potential energy) the medium comes to rest (no motion so no kinetic energy).

Hi!
1. R-Value - a standardized rating for insulating materials
R value is essentially the measure of the resistance to the conductive flow of heat that is determined by the thickness of a material. Different materials are allocated different R values in accordance with the degree of insulation they offer, such as a window, or a wall. It can be said to be the degree of insulation a layer of material offers, and the greater the R value, the higher the resistance it offers to the flow of heat, meaning better the insulation
2. Thermal Equilibrium - when two materials in contact are at the same temperature
Thermal equilibrium is a state when there is no net flow of thermal energy between two materials that are in contact through a pathway that offers thermal conductivity, or in more simple terms permeable to heat. If the temperature of a system is temporally and spatially consistent, the system is said to be in a thermal equilibrium.
3. Insulation - any material that reduces loss of energy due to heat flow
Insulation is when a material prevents the flow or passage of thermal energy or stops heat flow by some degree from one environment to another. For instance, a blanket offers insulation to the body by impairing the flow of heat from the body to the surrounding air. The greater the insulation, the less would be the flow of heat or thermal energy from one place to another.
4. Thermal Conductivity - a physical property of materials that relates its ability to conduct thermal energy
Thermal conductivity is a property of a material that deals with its ability to conduct heat, or thermal energy. The higher the thermal conductivity of a material, the greater would be the heat transfer within the material. For instance, a metal has a higher thermal conductivity that wood, meaning wood allows a lower transfer of heat through it. This is the reason why most cooking utensils such as spatula have a wooden base, instead of a metallic base.

Answer: When a child is riding on a sled down a steep, snow-covered hill, his elevation decreases and hence Kinetic energy increases and potential energy decreases.
