If no frictional work is considered, then the energy of the system (the driver at all positions is conserved.
Let
position 1 = initial height of the diver (h₁), together with the initial velocity (v₁).
position 2 = final height of the diver (h₂) and the final velocity (v₂).
The initial PE = mgh₁ and the initial KE = (1/2)mv₁²
where g = acceleration due to gravity,
m = mass of the diver.
Similarly, the final PE and KE are respectively mgh₂ and (1/2)mv₂².
PE in position 1 is converted into KE due to the loss in height from position 1 to position 2.
Therefore
(KE + PE) ₁ = (KE + PE)₂
Evaluate the given answers.
A) The total mechanical energy of the system increases.
FALSE
B) Potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy but not vice versa.
TRUE
C) (KE + PE)beginning = (KE + PE) end.
TRUE
D) All of the above.
FALSE
Answer:
Because each color is refracted differently, each bends at a different angle, resulting in a fanning out and separation of white light into the colors of the spectrum.
The jetliner is traveling against the wind. The net speed of the jetliner is
590 mph - 36 mph = 554 mph
The time it takes for the jetliner to arrive at the destination is
1850 miles / 554 mph = 3.34 hours
Answer:
Explanation:
mass (m1) = 1150 kg
mass (m2) = 1900 kg
impulse (J) = 200 N.s
With what relative speed do the two parts separate because of the detonation?
since both parts separate, their relative speed = speed of m1 + speed of m2
- speed of m1 =
=
= 0.174 m/s
- speed of m2 =
=
= 0.105 m/s - relative speed = 0.174 + 0.105 = 0.279 m/s
