The kinetic energy is not conserved because the chemical potential energy initially present in the explosive is converted into kinetic energy of the pieces of the bomb

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>
  • Kinetic energy is the term used in physics to describe the energy an object has as a result of motion. The effort needed to move a mass-determined body from rest to the stated velocity is how it is defined.
  • The body holds onto the kinetic energy it acquired during its acceleration until its speed changes.
  • The body exerts the same amount of effort when slowing down from its current pace to a condition of rest.
  • Formally, a kinetic energy is any term that includes a derivative with respect to time in the Lagrangian of a system.
  • This is a fair approximation in relativistic mechanics only when v is considerably slower than the speed of light.

Explanation:

\implies   v_{av} =  \dfrac{total \: displacement}{total \: time}

\implies   v_{av} =  \dfrac{100}{10}

\implies   v_{av} =10 \:  {ms}^{ - 1}

Which of the following choices defines energy in scientific terms?
snow_tiger [21]
1) B. Energy is the ability to do work

2) C. Energy is conserved, it just goes from one form to another.

3) Work = Force x displacement
= 300 x 100 = 30,000 Joules

4) leaning a brick because no displacement is taking place.

5) They change the amount/strength or direction of the force needed.

6) Less force is needed and applied over a longer distance.

7) Heat is the flow of thermal energy from one object to another.

Can someone tell me the answer and the reason
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

(a) the blocks all had different masses.

Explanation:

The surface is smooth, therefore coefficient of friction is tending to zero.

Forces for each blocks varied from 6N to 8N to 7N to 5N

The blocks were made of different materials and different materials are going to have varying weight for the same size of block.
