Which of the following does NOT describe the conversion of potential to kinetic energy? Question 12 options:

Physics

Marianna [84]3 years ago

The option “The sum emitting light energy” does not describe the conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

The potential energy, the object's energy at rest while the kinetic energy is the energy the object in motion. So among the options given, a rocket leaving the Earth's atmosphere consists of conversion of potential energy as the thrusting force to kinetic energy of the movement of the rocket to space.

Similarly the stretching of rubber band is a form of elastic potential energy and when it is released, the band will vibrate which will be the converted kinetic energy.

Also, the avalanche is the falling of ice berg which were once in rest, so the potential energy of the ice berg will get converted to kinetic energy during avalanche.

The option that is the sun emitting light does not convert potential to kinetic energy, instead it converts potential to light energy.

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Please see answer in explanation

Explanation:

1. Since each molecule has three kinetic degrees of freedom (can move in three independent directions), the gas must have 3N DoFs.

2. Each molecule has the three kinetic degrees of freedom the monotonic atom has ­­ moving without rotating ­­ but it can also spin. There are three axes for it to spin around so we would expect three rotational degrees of freedom, but as were as above, the one about the diatomic molecule's axis doesn't count because of quantum. So we have two rotational DoFs and three kinetic, for a total of 5 per molecules. So the gas will have 5N DoFs.

3.When a spring vibrates it has two DoFs, its KE and its PE, so adding 1 vibration adds 2 DoFs per molecule, giving 7 per molecule and giving thegas 7N DoFs.

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

hydrostatic pressure, P=hρg,

where 'h' is the ht of the liq column and ρ is the density of the liquid and 'g' is the effective acceleration, but as far as hydroSTATICS is concerned, g stands for the acceleration due to gravity

A satellite does not need any fuel to revolve around the earth?why​
Nadusha1986 [10]

They don't need gas because satellites rotate around the world using our planet's gravitational force as centripetal force. That as well as since there is no air in space, it doesn't have to work against air resistance. This way it doesn't lose energy by going around and around the Earth.

Hope this helps, have a BLESSED day! :-)
