What kind of energy is stored when you squeeze a mattress?

Physics
2 answers:
Umnica [9.8K]2 years ago
7 0

Answer: When you squeeze a mattress, and you release it, you can see that return to the original shape. So, when you are squeezing it, the mattress "want" to return to the original shape. The mattress does it by storing elastic energy, and when you stop squeezing it, uses the elastic energy to return to the original shape.

so the energy stored is elastic energy.

Two hoops, starting from rest, roll down identical inclined planes. The work done by nonconservative forces, such as air resiste
Maurinko [17]

Answer: both hoops have the same kinetic energy at the bottom of the incline.

Explanation:

If we assume no work done by non conservative forces (like friction) , the total mechanical energy must be conserved.

K1 + U1 = K2 + U2

If both hoops start from rest, and we choose the bottom of the incline to be the the zero reference level for gravitational potential energy, then

K1 = 0 and U2 = 0

⇒ ΔK = ΔU = m g. h

If both inclines have the same height, and both hoops have the same mass m, the  change in kinetic energy, must be the same for both hoops.
