Internal energy.

Explanation:

In any substance/object, the particles inside it (atoms/molecules) constantly move in random directions and with random speeds (this motion is called Brownian motion). As a result, the particles have some kinetic energy (which is proportional to the temperature of the substance). Moreover, the particles interact with each other due to the presence of electrostatic intermolecular forces, and as a result, the particles also have some potential energy.

The sum of the kinetic energies and potential energies of the particles in a substance is called internal energy.

Internal energy would be the answer because it says the sum of energies "IN" the particles.

Answer:

Explanation:

The inclined plane

An inclined plane consists of a sloping surface; it is used for raising heavy bodies. The plane offers a mechanical advantage in that the force required to move an object up the incline is less than the weight being raised (discounting friction). The steeper the slope, or incline, the more nearly the required force approaches the actual weight. Expressed mathematically, the force F required to move a block D up an inclined plane without friction is equal to its weight W times the sine of the angle the inclined plane makes with the horizontal (θ). The equation is F = W sin θ.

The lever

A lever is a bar or board that rests on a support called a fulcrum. A downward force exerted on one end of the lever can be transferred and increased in an upward direction at the other end, allowing a small force to lift a heavy weight.

The wedge

A wedge is an object that tapers to a thin edge. Pushing the wedge in one direction creates a force in a sideways direction. It is usually made of metal or wood and is used for splitting, lifting, or tightening, as in securing a hammer head onto its handle.

The wheel and axle

A wheel and axle is made up of a circular frame (the wheel) that revolves on a shaft or rod (the axle). In its earliest form it was probably used for raising weights or water buckets from wells.

Its principle of operation is best explained by way of a device with a large gear and a small gear attached to the same shaft. The tendency of a force, F, applied at the radius R on the large gear to turn the shaft is sufficient to overcome the larger force W at the radius r on the small gear. The force amplification, or mechanical advantage, is equal to the ratio of the two forces (W:F) and also equal to the ratio of the radii of the two gears (R:r)

Eddi Din [679]

Explanation:

In recent times of pandemic, robots can be use as replacement of labor in the industries. Mundane tasks can be programmed in their system so that they can used readily.

Drones can used delivery for essential goods and services, so that human interference can be least and the spread of virus can be curbed.

In a recent example, Argentina where aerial data has reportedly been used to accelerate the construction of emergency hospitals.

How does the angle of launch affect the kinetic energy of a rubber band?​
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The angle of launch of the rubber band affects the initial velocity. The more the rubber band is stretched the more force it applies to return to equilibrium and the more kinetic energy that results in.
