Which property of potential energy distinguishes it from kinetic energy?

Physics

dimaraw [331]4 years ago

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.

What happens to the object if the line crosses the x-axis from the positive portion of a velocity versus time diagram?
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

A velocity time graph shows the change of velocity of an object with respect ot time. If the slope of the graph is increasing in the postive region, it means that the velocity is changing, if the slope is decreasing, it means the the velocity is decreasing, but the object is moving in the same direction (positve direction).

If this slope intersects the graph at x-axis, it means that the body has 0 velocity and has become still. After that, if the line enters in the negative region, it means that its velocity is started to increases again, but the body is movinging in the opposite direction (negative direction)

A ball moves along a smooth metal surface while an identical ball moves along concrete.
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

2. The metal surface exerts less frictional force because there are fewer bumps and irregularities on it than there are on the concrete.

Explanation:

Frictional force is a force that is exerted between two surfaces in contact with each other. Frictional force always opposes the direction of relative motion of the two surfaces: for instance, for a ball moving along a surface, the force of friction exerted by the surface on the ball points opposite to the direction of motion of the ball.

The magnitude of the frictional force for a ball moving on a flat surface is given by

F=\mu mg

where

\mu is the coefficient of friction

m is the mass of the ball

g is the acceleration of gravity

The value of \mu depends on the type of surface involved. In particular, a smooth surface has a smaller value of \mu, while a rough surface will have a bigger value. In this case, we are comparing a smooth metal surface with concrete: since the metal surface has fewer bumps and irregularities than concrete, it has a smaller value of coefficient of friction, so it exerts less frictional force than concrete.
