Answer:
1270 J
Explanation:
Recall that the mechanical energy of a system is the addition of the Potential energy and the Kinetic energy at any given time.
As the skier descends, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, but the total mechanical energy should remain the same.
We see that it is not the case, so that difference is what has gone into thermal energy; 19500 J - 18230 J = 1270 J
A. Parallel circuit
Short circuits are circuits that is like plugging in a USB into your computer and the other end to your iPhone, so it's not D.
Series circuits can come in all kinds of different shapes, so it's not C.
Open circuits are circuits that are opened, meaning that whenever you turn on the light and it's an open circuit, it won't work cause the two wires are not connected, meaning it's not D.
Parallel circuits are circuits that are in one straight line, just like parallel lines, meaning the answer would be A. (Look at the picture and don't get confused with the other question that's the same question and has the same answers, they both have different pictures, so look at the pictures they give you whenever they ask the question so your getting the right answer)
Hope this helped.
Rod is 450mm and disk has a radius of 75mm So there is a pin holding the assembly upwards which is when Θ=0 and at the pin there is a torsional spring with constant of k=20N m/rad. One end of the rod is attached to the pin and the other is attached to the disk.
