Mechanical Energy = PE + KE

PE: mgh = 200 x 9.8 x 18 = 35280

PE: 35280 Joules

KE: 1/2mv^2 = 1/2 x 200 x 16^2 = 25600

KE: 25600 Joules

ME: 35280 + 25600

ME: 60,880J

A blinking light of constant period is situated on a lab cart. Which diagram best represents a photograph of light, taken every
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

The snapshot of light as the cart moves with constant velocity is represented by a graph with uniform displacement at each time interval.

The change in displacement with time is uniform at constant velocity. The displacement of the supplied moving item grows at the same pace.

The beginning velocity equals the ultimate velocity at constant velocity.

v₁ = v₂

The object's acceleration at constant velocity is zero since the velocity change with time is zero.

As a result, we may deduce that the graph with equal displacement at each time interval reflects a snapshot of light as the cart moves at a constant speed.

A moving object's displacement-time graph shows the distance traveled by a moving item as time passes. A vector quantity is displacement. The slope or gradient of this graph represents the velocity of the item. The displacement-time graph, also known as the position-time graph, describes an object's motion. In this graph, the displacement of the moving item is displayed on the y-axis as a dependent variable, while time is shown on the x-axis as an independent variable.
