Small paragraph explaining how how potential and kinetic energy are related

2 answers:

7 0

Kinetic energy is the energy of a moving object. Potential energy is the energy an object CAN have. For example a ball about to be dropped has potential energy. They are related because when an object has potential energy, once put into motion, it uses kinetic energy to move, and when it stops, it has potential energy. It’s kind of like a cycle.

Answer:

Kinetic energy is energy possessed by a body by virtue of its movement. Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position or state. While kinetic energy of an object is relative to the state of other objects in its environment, potential energy is completely independent of its environment.

If velocity is decreasing,then acceleration:

ziro4ka [17]

If velocity is decreasing, then acceleration is in the direction
opposite to the velocity.

If the object is moving in the direction that you call 'positive',
then acceleration is negative.

An object is moving at a constant speed along a straight line. Which of the following statements is not true? A. There must be a

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

False statement = There must be a non-zero net force acting on the object.

Explanation:

An object is moving at a constant speed along a straight line. If the speed is constant then its velocity must be constant. We know that the rate of change of velocity is called acceleration of the object i.e.

$a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}$

a = 0

⇒ The acceleration of the object is zero.

The product of force and acceleration gives the magnitude of force acting on the object i.e.

F = m a = 0

⇒ The net force acting on the object must be zero.

So, the option (a) is not true. This is because the force acting on the object is zero. First option contradicts the fact.

A 500 W hair dyer is used to dry hair for 6 minutes a day for 3 days. How much energy is used? A laptop uses 75 W. The cot of el

zzz [600]

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

We will solve this problem by calculating each part separately.

A 500 W hair dyer is used to dry hair for 6 minutes a day for 3 days.

Energy can be calculated by multiplying the value of the power of the equipment by the amount of time of use.

$500 [W]*[\frac{6min}{1day} ]*[\frac{1day}{24hr} ]*[\frac{1hr}{60min} ]=2.083 [W]$

The cots of electricity is 5.6 cents per kWh. How much would it cost to operate the laptop for 24 hours a day for one week?

We know that the power of the latop is 75 [W], then we can calculate the cost, multiplying the value of the power by the value of the cost by the time of use of the computer.

$0.075[kW]*5.6[\frac{cents}{kw*h}}]*[\frac{24hr}{1day}]*[1week]*[\frac{7days}{1week} ]=70.56 [cents]$

A toaster oven is 85% efficient. It uses 1200 J of energy. How much thermal energy is it producing?

Efficiency is defined as the relationship between the energy obtained on the energy delivered. Almost always the energy delivered is greater than the energy obtained (first law of thermodynamics).

Therefore.

$Effic = E_{obtained}/E_{delivered}\\0.85=E_{obtained}/1200\\E_{obtained}=1020[J]$
