The work-energy principle states that the work done by all the non-conservative forces acting on an object (or system of objects) causes a change in the total mechanical energy of the object or system.


What is the work-energy principle?
The work-energy principle states that the total work done on a system is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system. It is given as:

W.D = ΔK.E

       = K.E₁ - K.E₂

where K.E₁ is the initial kinetic energy of the system

            K.E₂ is the final kinetic energy of the system



What is meant by non-conservative forces?

Non-conservative forces as the name suggests are not conserved i.e. these forces cause a loss of mechanical energy from the system. A prime example of non-conservative forces is friction.

The total mechanical energy of the system is the sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy that the system contains. This energy is conserved and follows the work-energy theorem.

What are graphs used for?
kari74 [83]

A line that joins dots plotted on a graph paper is called a line graph. It is used to show the variation of a quantity with respect to another. A line graph represents two pieces of information that are usually related.

Taking the perspective of a student learning astronomy or physics, graphs are useful because they can summarize a LOT of information into one picture. When scientists do research graphs are often the only way to represent data that has been collected.

Explain how the extension of a spring is determined
fgiga [73]

Answer:

For a given spring the extension is directly proportional to the force applied For example if the force is doubled, the extension doubles When an elastic object is stretched beyond its limit of proportionality the object does not return to its original length when the force is removed

A charged balloon will stick to a neutral wall. which process is involved?
Leokris [45]
<span>The charged balloon will stick to a neutral wall because of the Static Electricity:
</span>
 The matter is formed by atoms and these atoms are composed of electrons, protons and neutrons (the electrons have a negative charge, the protons have a positive charge and the neutrons have no charge).

 As the balloon is charged (It gained electrons), and the charge of the same sign repel each other, when it approaches the wall, the electrons of this wall will move away, and the positive charges (protons) will remain in the nearest area to the balloon. As the charges of different signs are attracted, the balloon will be stuck to the wall.
