The mechanical energy isn't conserved. Some energy is lost to friction.
Option A.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
The mechanical energy is defined as the energy of a body which it achieves by virtue of its position and velocity. The mechanical energy are of two types - potential energy and kinetic energy. The potential energy is the energy of the body which it achieves by means of its relative position and is directly proportional to the height of the body from its relative plane. Whereas the kinetic energy of the body is achieved by virtue of its velocity and is directly proportional to the square of velocity of the body.
As the mountaineer is skiing down the slope of a mountain, the potential energy of the person is gradually changing into his kinetic energy. Had it been in an ideal situation, the potential energy lost would have been just equal to the kinetic energy gained by the person. But there's friction which opposes the speed of the body and reduces the velocity. Thus the kinetic energy will be lost to some extent and the energy won't be conserved.
Answer:
2 /s north
Explanation:
Given that,
Velocity due North is 8 m/s and due south is 6 m/s
We need to find the magnitude and the direction of the resulting velocity.
Let North is positive and South is negative. When two velocities are in opposite direction, they adds up. So,

It is positive. So, it is in North direction.
Answer:
<u>Question 2</u>
<u>Part (a)</u>
Chlorine: type of compound = chloride
Oxygen: type of compound = oxide
<u>Part (b)</u>
The iron reacts with water and oxygen to form rust.
A water molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms joined to one oxygen atom: Di-hydrogen oxide.
<u>Question 3</u>
This circuit is in parallel.
The current in a parallel circuit splits into different branches then combines again before it goes back into the supply.
We are told that A₁ = 0.8 A
As the lamps have <u>equal resistance</u>, the current splits equally:
A₂ = 0.4 A
A₃ = 0.4 A
Then combines again:
A₄ = 0.8 A
