Which property of potential energy distinguishes it from kinetic energy?

2 answers:

6 0

There are several differences, however a big property that distinguishes the 2 is that potential energy cannot be transferred, whereas kinetic energy can.
We can see this for example in a bow, when you pull it back it has elastic potential energy because of the strain in the bow, however you can't transfer this potential energy to another object, whereas the flying arrow can transfer it's KE to the target it hits as several things including thermal and sound energy.

A 1.5m long string weighs 0.0020 kg. It is tensioned to 100N. A disturbance travels along it with a wavelength of 1.5m, find:a)

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

the propagation velocity of the wave is 274.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

length of the string, L = 1.5 m

mass of the string, m = 0.002 kg

Tension of the string, T = 100 N

wavelength, λ = 1.5 m

The propagation velocity of the wave is calculated as;

$v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } \\\\\mu \ is \ mass \ per \ unit \ length \ of \ the \ string\\\\\mu = \frac{0.002 \ kg}{1.5 \ m} = 0.00133 \ kg/m\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{100}{0.00133} } \\\\v = 274.2 \ m/s$

Therefore, the propagation velocity of the wave is 274.2 m/s

A particle moves in a straight line with the velocity function v ( t ) = sin ( w t ) cos 3 ( w t ) . find its position function

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Integrating the velocity equation, we will see that the position equation is:

$$f(t)=\frac{\cos ^3(\omega t)-1}{3}$

<h3>How to get the position equation of the particle?</h3>

Let the velocity of the particle is:

$$v(t)=\sin (\omega t) * \cos ^2(\omega t)$

To get the position equation we just need to integrate the above equation:

$$f(t)=\int \sin (\omega t) * \cos ^2(\omega t) d t$

$$\mathrm{u}=\cos (\omega \mathrm{t})$

Then:

$$d u=-\sin (\omega t) d t$

$\Rightarrow d t=-d u / \sin (\omega t)$

Replacing that in our integral we get:

$\int \sin (\omega t) * \cos ^2(\omega t) d t$

$-\int \frac{\sin (\omega t) * u^2 d u}{\sin (\omega t)}-\int u^2 d t=-\frac{u^3}{3}+c$

Where C is a constant of integration.

Now we remember that $u=\cos (\omega t)$

Then we have:

$$f(t)=\frac{\cos ^3(\omega t)}{3}+C$

To find the value of C, we use the fact that f(0) = 0.

$$f(t)=\frac{\cos ^3(\omega * 0)}{3}+C=\frac{1}{3}+C=0$

C = -1 / 3

Then the position function is:

$$f(t)=\frac{\cos ^3(\omega t)-1}{3}$

Integrating the velocity equation, we will see that the position equation is:

$$f(t)=\frac{\cos ^3(\omega t)-1}{3}$

What the kinetic energy quantities in calculation pls help me

Rashid [163]

Answer:

KE = 0.5 * m * v², where: m - mass, v - velocity.

Explanation:

In classical mechanics, kinetic energy (KE) is equal to half of an object's mass (1/2*m) multiplied by the velocity squared. For example, if a an object with a mass of 10 kg (m = 10 kg) is moving at a velocity of 5 meters per second (v = 5 m/s), the kinetic energy is equal to 125 Joules, or (1/2 * 10 kg) * 5 m/s 2.

What is happening in the diagram?

pishuonlain [190]

In the diagram, the ship send sound(?) waves to the water, to determine if there is anything there. If there is something like a sunken ship shown in the diagram, the waves return in a shorter time hence you can understand if theres something or now. This is the principle of radars and sonars.

Can concave lens be used to make hand lens .why?

mario62 [17]

Answer:

No concave lens cannot be used to make hand lens because in hand Lens we use convex lens so as to converge the rays of the light After refraction and helps to produce a magnified image of an object.
