What is energy transfer? Give some examples

Physics

Energy transfer is the conversion or movement of one form of energy to another. 

An example of energy transfer would be if a light switch is turned on, electrical energy runs through the wires and is transferred to the light bulb, where electrical energy is converted to light and heat energy. 

Another example would be our bodies converting chemical energy from food into mechanical and electrical energy, which allows us to move.

point A is at the bottom of a rough plane which is inclined at angle tita to the horizontal . A body of mass M is projected from
ziro4ka [17]

<h2>The work done , when body moves along the plane </h2>

Explanation:

A body is projected from bottom of the inclined plane . When body is going up the plane .

The downward force = m g sinθ is developed due to its weight

As body is moving upwards , the force of friction will act downwards

The force of friction = μ R

here μ is the coefficient of friction ans R is the normal reaction

Thus force of friction f = μ mg cosθ

Let the acceleration upwards is a

The upward force required = m a

Thus m a = mg sinθ + μ mg cosθ

or acceleration a = g ( sinθ + μ cosθ )

The work done in moving upwards  W = F S

Thus W =  mg ( sinθ + μ cosθ ) S

here S is the displacement on the plane

When body moves down , the force of friction acts upwards

Thus m a = m g ( sinθ - μ cosθ )

The work done W = m g ( sinθ - μ cosθ ) S

As the body is projected with velocity u

which can be calculated by the relation v² - u² = - 2 a X

Here v = 0 at the highest point

Thus u = \sqrt{2ax}

here a = g ( sinθ + μ cosθ )

Similarly , when it moves down , the initial velocity u = 0

Thus v² - 0 = 2 a x

or  v = \sqrt{2ax}

here a = g ( sinθ - μ cosθ )

A student applies a force 6 newtons to move a bool 1.5 meters across a table. How much work, in joules did the student do?​
Anna [14]

Answer:

  1. 9 J

Explanation:

The work done by an object can be found by using the formula

workdone = force × distance

From the question we have

workdone = 6 × 1.5

We have the final answer as

<h3>9 J</h3>

A load of 36 N attached to a spring hanging
Annette [7]

Answer: 115.38N

Explanation:

Firstly, let's determine the constant.

Hooke's law was discovered by Robert Hooke in 1660.

Using hooke's law which states that provided the elastic limit of an elastic material is not exceeded, the force is equal to the extension applied provided all factors are kept constant.

Hooke's Law is a principle of physics that states that the force which is needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance is proportional to that distance

Therefore,

Force=kx

K= F/x

Where Force= 75m

x= 0.065m

K= 75/0.065m

K= 1153. 846N

We can use the constant to find the force when the distance that is stretched(x) is known.

Here

Force=kx

F= 1153.846 × 0.10

F= 115.38N

The force required to stretch it by this amount is 115.38N.
