Answer:
13 meters
Explanation:
Step one:
given
We are told that Nathalie leaves a history classroom and walks 3 meters North
Then travels another 10 meters south to an art classroom.
Required
The total distance.
Step two:
The total distance can be computed by summing up the 3 meter North distance traveled and the 10 meter south distance traveled
Total distance= 3+10= 13meters
Answer:
Subtract the kinetic energy at the bottom from the potential energy loss. The remainder becomes frictional heat.
Potential energy loss:
M g H = 21.7*9.81*3.5 = 745.1 J
Kinetic energy at bottom of slide:
= (1/2) M v^2 = 52.5 J
It takes work to push charge through a change of potential.
There's no change of potential along an equipotential path,
so that path doesn't require any work.
