Can the kinetic energy of an object be negative? Can the potential energy of an object be negative? Can a potential energy funct
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Kinetic energy cannot be negative

potential energy is a reference dependent quantity and it can be positive as well as negative both

Since potential energy is defined only for conservative force so it can not be found for friction force

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of an object is given by the formula

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

here we know that

m = mass of object that can not be negative

v = speed of the object and since its square is given here so it can not be negative

so Kinetic energy is always positive

potential energy is given as the energy due to the virtue of the position of object

so it is

\Delta U = -\int F.dr

so potential energy is a reference dependent quantity and it can be positive as well as negative both

Since potential energy is defined only for conservative force so it can not be found for friction force

What is the relationship between elevation and energy
jasenka [17]

The Energy related to object motion.Potential energy most commonly refers to gravitational potential energy, which is energy associated with an object's elevation. For an object of mass m and elevation z, its potential energy is mgz where g is the gravitational constant .............. HOPE IT HELPS YOU :)

What is a fault please tell me because I need to know
fomenos

Answer:

A fault is commonly known as a rock fracture, where the two sides have been displaced, like when an earthquake happens the plates will slide against each other causing the fault to be the surface of where the rocks slipped.

The resistance, R, of a wire varies directly as its length and inversely as the square of its diameter. If the resistance of a w
lbvjy [14]

R is proportional to the length of the wire:

R ∝ length

R is also proportional to the inverse square of the diameter:

R ∝ 1/diameter²

The resistance of a wire 2700ft long with a diameter of 0.26in is 9850Ω. Now let's change the shape of the wire, adding and subtracting material as we go along, such that the wire is now 2800ft and has a diameter of 0.1in.

Calculate the scale factor due to the changed length:

k₁ = 2800/2700 = 1.037

Scale factor due to changed diameter:

k₂ = 1/(0.1/0.26)² = 6.76

Multiply the original resistance by these factors to get the new resistance:

R = R₀k₁k₂

R₀ = 9850Ω, k₁ = 1.037, k₂ = 6.76

R = 9850(1.037)(6.76)

R = 69049.682Ω

Round to the nearest hundredth:

R = 69049.68Ω
