Question

A child is swinging back and forth on a swing. Changes in her kinetic and potential energy are happening each moment. At which point, or multiple points, in her swinging would each of these two types of energy be at a maximum? In one to two sentences, describe these points and which type of energy is at a maximum at each point.(2 points)

Answer 1

If a child is swinging back and forth on a swing. Changes in her kinetic and potential energy are happening each moment .

What is mechanical energy?

The sum of all the energy in motion (total kinetic energy) and all the energy that is stored in the system (total potential energy) is known as mechanical energy .

As given in the problem a child is swinging back and forth on a swing. Changes in her kinetic and potential energy are happening each moment .

At the extreme end of the swing, the potential energy of the child is maximum and the at lowest height of the swing the kinetic energy of the child is maximum .
