Where is there potential energy throughout the loading, cocking, and releasing if the trebuchet?

Physics

pshichka [43]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

adapted from NOVA, a team of historians, engineers, and trade experts recreate a medieval throwing machine called a trebuchet. To launch a projectile, a trebuchet utilizes the transfer of gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy. A massive counterweight at one end of a lever falls because of gravity, causing the other end of the lever to rise and release a projectile from a sling. As part of their design process, the engineers use models to help evaluate how well their designs will work.

How is the motion of an object affected when a force acts on it?
Arada [10]

Newton's first law of motion is sometimes called the law of inertia. When the forces acting on an object are balanced, the object is either at rest or moving with a constant velocity. Unbalanced forces can cause an object to accelerate or decelerate. Unbalanced forces can also cause an object to change direction.

Hope that helps!

Gases are more prone to expansion and contraction than liquid . The biggest change in the volume in your thermometer was probabl
KiRa [710]

Answer:

In the air

Explanation:

There are three states of matter:

- Solids: in solids, the particles are tightly bond together by strong intermolecular forces, so they cannot move freely - they can only vibrate around their fixed position

- Liquids: in liquids, particles are more free to move, however there are still some intermolecular forces keeping them close to each other

- Gases: in gases, particles are completely free to move, as the intermolecular forces between them are negligible

For this reason, it is generally easier to compress/expand the volume of a gas with respect to the volume of a liquid.

In this problem, we are comparing water (which is a liquid) with air (which is a gas). From what we said above, this means that the change in volume is larger in the air rather than in the water.
