When the child is moving, he/she has kinetic energy. For just a brief second before they move the other way, the child is not moving, but they have gravitational potential energy.
The child may need a push from time to time because friction with the air causes loss of energy.
Answer:
D. Drawing a conclusion about something
Answer:
(a) 61.25 N
(b) 6.25 kg
(c) 6.25 Kg
Explanation:
Weight on moon = 10 N
Acceleration due to gravity on moon = 1.6 m/s^2
Acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8 m/s^2
Let m be the mass of the package.
(a) Weight on earth = mass x acceleration due to gravity on earth
Weight on earth = 6.25 x 9.8 = 61.25 N
(b) Weight on moon = mass x acceleration due to gravity on moon
10 = m x 1.6
m = 6.25 kg
(c) Mass of the package remains same as mass does not change, so the mass of package on earth is 6.25 kg.
Answer:
We say fictitious because the actual source of the centrifugal acceleration is somewhat indirect and the experience one has results from the unbalanced forces acting on the reference frame, not a force. Note, it is an acceleration not a force. For instance, imagine yourself on a swing.
