The energy concerned with the objects in motion or action is called kinetic energy. Potential energy is defined as the energy contained in the object, as a result of its state of rest. Kinetic energy can be transferred between objects. ... Kinetic energy is relative to the environment of the moving body.

Potential energy is energy that is stored within the object with respect to its position or configuration.

Potential energy is converted into kinetic energy when it moves. Kinetic energy is energy that is released through movement.

A 100 kg box is initially at rest on a level surface. One 10 N force acts on the box , directed toward the right. A second 10 N

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The box will not move because balanced forces are acting on it.

Explanation:

According to Newton's first law of motion, an object will remain in its state of rest or motion along a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

An unbalanced force is an individual force acting on any side of an object which is not balanced by a force of equal magnitude acting in the opposite direction.

From the image, two forces of equal magnitude of 10 N are pulling the 100 kg box in opposite directions. Since the two forces, 10 N each are pulling the object in opposite directions, they are balanced forces. Therefore, the box will not move because balanced forces are acting on it.

Food and nutrition are fundamental to military capability. Historical examples demonstrate that a failure to supply adequate nutrition to armies inevitably leads to disaster; however, innovative measures to overcome difficulties in feeding reap benefits, and save lives. In barracks, UK Armed Forces are currently fed according to the relatively new Pay As You Dine policy, which has attracted criticism from some quarters. The recently introduced Multi-Climate Ration has been developed specifically to deal with issues arising from Iraq and the current conflict in Afghanistan.Answer:
