Answer:
Chemical energy to electrical energy
Explanation:
In nature, there are several types of energy.
In this example (a flashlight being turned on), we have a conversion of energy from chemical energy to electrical energy. In fact:
- Chemical energy is the energy stored in the chemical bonds of the molecules of the substances used inside the battery. When the chemical reaction inside the battery occurs, this energy is liberated, and it is used to "push" the electrons along the circuit connected to the battery
- Electric energy is the energy associated to the motion of the electrons along the circuit of the flashlight; it is the energy associated to an electric current.
Moreover, in the flashlight the electric energy is then converted into two more types of energy: light energy (since the bulb in the flashlight produces light) and heat energy (because the flashlight also produces heat, so thermal energy).
Distance covered is given as follows
1). 7 km North
2). 5 km North
3). 1 km East
Now total distance covered will be given as
Now in order to find the displacement we will show all with their directions
towards North
towards East
So total displacement is
so net displacement will be
so displacement is 12.04 km
Answer:
Explanation:
Work is equal to the product of force and distance.
The force is 8 Newtons and the distance is 15 meters.
Substitute the values into the formula.
Multiply.
- 1 Newton meter is equal to 1 Joule
- Our answer of 120 N*m equals 120 J
The work done is <u>120 Joules</u>
Answer:
There is absolutely No relationship between the weight of an object (which is constant) and the frictional force. If a block is sliding on a surface, that surface will be exerting a force on the block. That force can be resolved into a component parallel to the surface (which we call the frictional component), and a component perpendicular to the surface (called the normal component). For many situations, we find experimentally that the frictional component is approximately proportional to the normal component. The frictional component divided by the normal component is defined to be a quantity called the coefficient of kinetic or sliding friction. The coefficient of kinetic friction obviously depends on the nature of the surfaces involved. The normal component on an object can be decreased if you pull in the direction of the normal component (the weight does not change). However pulling this way on the object not only decreases the normal component, but it also decreases the frictional component since they are proportional. This is why it is easier to slide something if you pull up on it while you push it. If you push down, the normal and frictional components increase so it is harder to slide the object. The weight of an object is the downward force exerted by Earth’s gravity on that object, and it does not change no matter how you push or pull on the object.
