Potential energy: A type of energy which is possessed by an object due its position.

Example: A raised weight or when we raise any weight is a potential energy.

Potential energy depends upon three factors. They are:

Mass of an object.
Height of an object.
Gravitational force upon an object.

The potential energy of the object depends on

the height of the object with respect to some reference points,
the mass of the object,
the gravitational field the object is in.

Two blocks can collide in a one-dimensional collision. The block on the left hass a mass of 0.40 kg and is initially moving to t

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

The velocity of the first block is 1.15m/s while of the second block 2.56m/s.

Explanation:

Momentum is only conserved in an isolated system, and because this problem requires us to find the value of the two variables, we need two equations; therefore, to conserved momentum the energy must be released in to the system only after the collision has occurred.

Therefore, from conservation of momentum

$m_1v_1= m_1v_{1f}+m_2v_{2f}$

$0.4(2.4)= 0.4v_{1f}+0.5v_{2f}$

$\boxed{\:0.96= 0.4v_{1f}+0.5v_{2f}}$

and from conservation of energy

$\frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2+1.2 = \frac{1}{2} m_1v_{1f}^2+\frac{1}{2}m_2v_{2f}^2$

$m_1v_1^2+2.4 = m_1v_{1f}^2+m_2v_{2f}^2}$

$\boxed{\:3.804= 0.4v_{1f}^2+0.5v_{2f}^2.}$

Thus, we have two equations and two unknowns

$(1). \: 0.4v_{1f}+0.5v_{2f}=0.96$

${(2). \: 0.4v_{1f}^2+0.5v_{2f}^2 =3.804$

which has solutions

$(v_{1f}, v_{2f}) = (1.15,2.56)$

and

$(v_{1f}, v_{2f}) = (1.15,-2.56)$

Since the blocks cannot pass through each other, the 0.5kg block cannot have $v_{2f} = -2.56m/s$ (moves to the left) while the 0.4 kg block has $v_{1f} = 1.15m/s$ (moves to the right); therefore, we take the first solution for the velocities:

$(v_{1f}, v_{2f}) = (1.15,2.56)$ .

Thus , the velocity of the first block is 1.15m/s while of the second block 2.56m/s.

Pls help its about baseball and energy (one question) '^'

avanturin [10]

The answer would be A. As the bat is swung, it gains kinetic energy. But once it hits the ball, it loses, or transfers, it’s kinetic energy to the ball.

Write the relation between horsepower and Watt?

Vadim26 [7]

Explanation:

Horsepower is related to watt as: 1 horsepower = 746 W = 750 W approximately. 1 horsepower (HP) = 750 watt (approx.) The power is one watt when one joule of work is done in one second.

A 2.5 kg block is launched along the ground by a spring with a spring constant of 56 N/m. The spring is initially compressed 0.7

Norma-Jean [14]

vf ^2 = kx^2/m = 56(0.75)^2 / 2.5 = 12.6

Therefore, v= 3.5 m/s.
