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 helium nucleus (charge = 2e, mass = 6.63 10-27 kg) traveling at 6.20 105 m/s enters an electric field, traveling from point ci

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

$v_B=3.78\times 10^5\ m/s$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge on helium nucleus is 2e and its mass is $6.63\times 10^{-27}\ kg$

Speed of nucleus at A is $v_A=6.2\times 10^5\ m/s$

Potential at point A, $V_A=1.5\times 10^3\ V$

Potential at point B, $V_B=4\times 10^3\ V$

We need to find the speed at point B on the circle. It is based on the concept of conservation of energy such that :

increase in kinetic energy = increase in potential×charge

$\dfrac{1}{2}m(v_A^2-v_B^2)=(V_B-V_A)q\\\\\dfrac{1}{2}m(v_A^2-v_B^2)={(4\times 10^3-1.5\times 10^3)}\times 2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}=8\times 10^{-16}\\\\v_A^2-v_B^2=\dfrac{2\times 8\times 10^{-16}}{6.63\times 10^{-27}}\\\\v_A^2-v_B^2=2.41\times 10^{11}\\\\v_B^2=(6.2\times 10^5)^2-2.41\times 10^{11}\\\\v_B=3.78\times 10^5\ m/s$

So, the speed at point B is $3.78\times 10^5\ m/s$ .

If the frequency of the motion of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what factor does the maximum speed of the oscillat

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

If the frequency of the motion of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled , then maximum speed of the oscillator changes by the factor 2

Explanation:

We know that in a simple harmonic oscillator the maximum speed is given by

$v_{max}$ = $Aw$

Here A is amplitude which is constant , so from above equation we see that maximum speed is directly proportional to $w\\$ of the oscillation .

Since $w = 2 \pi f$

$v_{max}^{|}/v_{max} = 2f/f$ = 2

Where $v_{max}^{|}$ is the maximum speed when frequency is doubled .

1) 4°C : It has the highest density as shown on the graph.

2) Water expands when it freezes, making it less dense than just water.

3) The ice would sink to the bottom, then the rest of the water would freeze as well, the entire lake/river/whatever will freeze eliminating the organisms that live there.

Two 800 cm^3 containers hold identical amounts of a monatomic gas at 20Â°C. Container A is rigid. Container B has a 100 cm^2 pis

Vikki [24]

Answer:

1) Final Temperature of the gas in A will be GREATER than the temperature in B

2) Diagram of both processes on a single PV has been uploaded below

3) The Initial pressures in containers A and B is 3039.87 J/liters

4) the final volume of container B is 923.36 cm³

Explanation:

Given that;

Temperature = 20°C = 293 K

mass of piston = 10 kg

Area = 100cm³

Volume V = 800 cm³ = 0.8 L

ideal gas constant R = 8.3 J/K·mol

Final Temperature of the gas in A will b GREATER than the temperature in B

Diagram of both processes on a single PV has been uploaded below,

Initial pressures in containers A and B

PV = nRT

P = RT/V

we substitute

P = (8.3 × 293) / 0.8

P = 2431.9 / 0.8

P = 3039.87 J/liters

Therefore, The Initial pressures in containers A and B is 3039.87 J/liters

Given that;

power = 25 W

time t = 15s

the final volume of container B = ?

we know that;

work done = power × time

work done = 25 × 15 = 375

Also work done = P( V₂ - V₁ )

so we substitute

375 = 3039.87 ( V₂ - 0.8 )

( V₂ - 0.8 ) = 375 / 3039.87

V₂ - 0.8 = 0.12336

V₂ = 0.12336 + 0.8

V₂ = 0.92336 Litres

V₂ = 923.36 cm³

Therefore, the final volume of container B is 923.36 cm³
