<u>Answer
</u>
A. 1 and 2
<u>Explanation
</u>
At point 1 we have the highest potential energy and the kinetic energy is zero.
At 2 the potential energy is minimum and the kinetic energy is maximum.
The law of conservation of energy says that energy cannot be created nor destroyed. So, the change in P.E = Change in K.E.
P.E = height × gravity × mass. The height referred here is the perpendicular height. Gravity and mass are constant in this case.
From the diagram it can be seen clearly that the vertical height from 2 to 1 is much greater than from 4 to 3.
This shows that the change in P.E is greater between 1 and 2 and so is kinetic energy.
Answer:
Explanation:
mass of refrigerator, m = 110 kg
coefficient of static friction, μs = 0.85
coefficient of kinetic friction, μk = 0.59
(a) the minimum force required to just start the motion in refrigerator
F = μs x mg
F = 0.85 x 110 x 9.8
F = 916.3 N
(b) The force required to move the refrigerator with constant speed
F' = μk x mg
F' = 0.59 x 110 x 9.8
F' = 636.02 N
(c) Let a be the acceleration.
Net force = Applied force - friction force
F net = 950 - 636.02
F net = 313.98 N
a = F net / mass
a = 313.98 / 110
a = 2.85 m/s²
Explanation:
Gravitational potential energy
= mgh
= (2kg)(10N/kg)(5m)
= 100J.
