Answers and Explanation:

Forms of Kinetic energy

  • Translational kinetic energy
  • Rotational kinetic energy
  • Vibrational kinetic energy

Forms of Potential energy

  • Gravitational potential energy
  • Electrostatic potential energy
  • Elastic potential energy
  • chemical potential energy

Energy efficiency is a measure of the amount of energy conserved in a process. It is the ratio of the output energy to the input energy.

Differences between renewable and non renewable energy

  • Renewable energy can replenish themselves by recycling and replacement while non-renewable energy cannot
  • Renewable energy are continuously available while non renewable energy are exhausted
  • Renewable energy has low carbon emission and hence environment friendly while non renewable energy has high carbon emission and not environmental friendly

Sources of renewable energy

Solar energy.

Wind energy.

Hydro energy.

Tidal energy.

Geothermal energy.

Biomass energy.

Sources of non-renewable energy

Coal

Petroleum

Natural gas

Distribution of energy consumption in the US by energy sector

Petroleum = 36.2 %

Natural gas = 28%

Coal = 13.9%

Renewable energy = 11.0%

Nuclear electric power = 8.4%

Most of the energy consumed by the United States is non-renewable

Electricity is a secondary source of energy. It is derived from the conversion of primary sources

A secondary source of energy is a derivative from the transformation of primary sources of energy

A ship leaves the island of Guam and sails a distance 255 km at an angle 49.0 o north of west. Part A: In which direction must i
kiruha [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall represent displacement in vector form .Consider east as x axes and north as Y axes west as - ve x axes and south as - ve Y axes . 255 km can be represented by the following vector

D₁ = - 255 cos 49 i  + 255 sin49 j

= - 167.29 i + 192.45 j

Let D₂ be the further displacement which lands him 125 km east . So the resultant displacement is

D = 125 i

So

D₁ + D₂ = D

- 167.29 i + 192.45 j + D₂ = 125 i

D₂ = 125 i + 167.29 i - 192.45 j

= 292.29 i - 192.45 j

Angle of D₂ with x axes θ

tan θ = -192.45 / 292.29

= - 0.658

θ = 33.33 south of east

Magnitude of D₂

D₂² = ( 192.45)² + ( 292.29)²

D₂ = 350 km approx

A mass of 1 slug, when attached to a spring, stretches it 2 feet and then comes to rest in the equilibrium position. Starting at
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Y=(\dfrac{3}{16}+t \dfrac{3}{8})e^{-2t}-\dfrac{3}{16}cos 4t

Explanation:

Given that m= 1 slug and given that spring stretches by 2 feet so we can find the spring constant K

mg=k x

1 x 32= k x 2

K=16

And also give that damping force is 8 times the velocity so damping constant C=8.

We know that equation for spring mass system

my''+Cy'+Ky=F

Now by putting the values

1 y"+8 y'+ 16y=6 cos 4 t ----(1)

The general solution of equation Y=CF+IP

Lets assume that at steady state the equation of y will be

y(IP)=A cos 4t+ B sin 4t

To find the constant A and B we have to compare this equation with equation 1.

Now find y' and y" (by differentiate with respect to t)

y'= -4A sin 4t+4B cos 4t

y"=-16A cos 4t-16B sin 4t

Now put the values of y" , y' and y in equation 1

1 (-16A cos 4t-16B sin 4t)+8( -4A sin 4t+4B cos 4t)+16(A cos 4t+ B sin 4t)=6sin4 t

So by comparing the coefficient both sides

-16A+32B+16A=0  So B=0

-16 B-32 A+16B=6  So A=-3/16

y=-3/16 cos 4t

Now to find the CF  of differential equation 1

y"+8 y'+ 16y=6 cos 4 t

Homogeneous version of above equation

m^2+8m+16=0

So CF =(C_1+tC_2)e^{-2t}

So the general equation

Y=(C_1+tC_2)e^{-2t}-3/16 cos 4t

Given that t=0 Y=0 So

C_1=\dfrac{3}{16}

t=0 Y'=0 So

C_2 =\dfrac{3}{8}

Y=(\dfrac{3}{16}+t \dfrac{3}{8})e^{-2t}-\dfrac{3}{16}cos 4t

The above equation is the general equation for motion.

A concave mirror is used as a<br> reflector ina torch light?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

A concave mirror is used as a torch reflector. ... When a light bulb is placed at the focus of a concave mirror reflector, the diverging light rays of the bulb are collected by the reflector. These rays are then reflected to produce a strong, parallel-sided beam of light.

Help on finding kinetic energy??
Jobisdone [24]
Trick question? In order to have kinetic energy, an object must be moving. Therefore, in this case, kinetic energy would be 0. If it were asking about potential energy, it would be a different story.
