<span>The correct answer is: Mechanical Energy
Explanation:
As the guitar strings are plunked, the potential energy stored in the strings has an ability to make them vibrate. When the strings are vibrating, that potential energy is actually converted to the kinetic energy. Hence, the whole phenomena contains both the kinetic energy and the potential energy. The sum of kinetic energy and the potential energy is called Mechanical energy. Therefore, the correct answer is Mechanical Energy.</span>
Answer:
the work converted to thermal energy is 40 J.
Explanation:
Given;
work done by the physicist,w = 100 J
height through which the book is raised, h = 0.2 m
efficiency of machine = 60% = 0.6
The useful work done by the machine is calculated as;
useful work = 0.6 x 100 = 60 J
The wasted energy = 100 J - 60 J
The wasted energy = 40 J
The wasted energy by the machine is possibly converted to thermal energy by the frictional part of the machine.
Therefore, the work converted to thermal energy is 40 J.
Answer:
D. magnitude and direction
Explanation:
The equivalent resistance of resistors connected in parallel is

In our problem, we have 5 identical resistor of resistance

, so their equivalent resistance is

The problem also says that the equivalent resistance is

, so we can find the resistance R of each piece of wire:

In the initial wire, it's like the 5 pieces are connected in series, so the equivalent resistance of the wire is just the sum of the resistances of the 5 pieces:
I would say the same thing as the first answer
