potential energy because it has the ability to do work

Explanation:

A rock resting high in a cliff is an example of potential energy because it has the ability to do work. This form of energy is called potential energy.

  • Energy is defined as the ability to do work. To do work, force must applied using energy to move a body through a particular distance.
  • A body at rest is not doing any work. This is the case with potential energy of the body on a high cliff.
  • At the state of rest, it is not doing any work.
  • The potential energy of this body expresses the ability of such body to do work.

A current of 0.92 a flows in a wire. how many electrons are flowing past any point in the wire per second? the charge on one ele
Fantom [35]
The current is defined as the ratio between the charge Q flowing through a certain point of a wire and the time interval, \Delta t:
I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t}
First we need to find the net charge flowing at a certain point of the wire in one second, \Delta t=1.0 s. Using I=0.92 A and re-arranging the previous equation, we find
Q=I \Delta t= (0.92 A)(1.0 s)=0.92 C

Now we know that each electron carries a charge of e=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C, so if we divide the charge Q flowing in the wire by the charge of one electron, we find the number of electron flowing in one second:
N= \frac{Q}{q} = \frac{0.92 C}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C}=5.75 \cdot 10^{18}

How is friction reduced between an air hockey puck and the table.
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

An air hockey table has a very smooth and slippery surface which reduces friction by suspending the puck on cushion of air, so that this its motion is much less altered by friction, causing it to glide in a straight line at relatively constant velocity across the table.

A marble, a bowling ball, a basketball, and a baseball are all sitting on the top shelf of a display case. Which one has the gre
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Bowling Ball

Explanation:

The potential energy depends on the factors: mass of the object and distance between the two objects. In this case the distance is between the ground and the balls. Here, the bowling ball is heaviest and its center of mass is farthest in comparison to other two balls. Thus, it has the greatest potential energy.
