To calculate the change in kinetic energy, you must know the force as a function of position. The work done by the force causes the kinetic energy change
Explanation:
The work-energy theorem states that the change in kinetic enegy of an object is equal to the work done on the object:
where the work done is the integral of the force over the position of the object:
As we see from the formula, the magnitude of the force F(x) can be dependent from the position of the object, therefore in order to solve correctly the integral and find the work done on the object, it is required to know the behaviour of the force as a function of the position, x.
Hi there!
Recall the equation for weight.
W = Weight (N)
M = Mass (kg)
g = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)
The weight of an object depends upon its MASS and the strength of the GRAVITATIONAL field. We can solve for weight:
The answer to this is true. Usually when a volcano forms it starts off from the ocean floor then it will form up towards the surface. Volcanoes are also known for creating new islands like for example The Hawaiian Chain, it was created by volcanoes. in order for the islands to form, the plates in the ocean floor aka where the volcanoes are located has to push up another rock aka an island. Molten rock falls into the ocean and hardens creating a new island.
The correct answer is amplitude
