Total mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy
E = KE + PE
E = ½mv² + mgh
E = ½(0.1 kg)(2 m/s)² + (0.1 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(1.5 m)
E = 0.2 J + 1.47 J
E = 1.67 J

We know that:
EM=Epg+Ek
So:
Epg=mgh
Epg=0,1kg*9,8m/s²*1,5m
Epg=1,47J
Now:
Ek=1/2mv²
Ek=1/2(0,1kg)(2m/s)²
Ek=0,2J
That give us:
EM=1,47J*0,2J
EM=1,67J

What is the difference between temperature and heat???
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Difference between heat and temperature in tabular form

Heat vs Temperature

1.Heat is a form of energy that can transfer from a hot body to a cold body. and Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness of a body.

2.Heat is the total kinetic energy and potential energy obtained by molecules in an object. and Temperature is the average K.E of molecules in a substance.

3.Heat flows from hot body to cold body. It rises when heated and falls down when an object is cooled down and It has a working ability. It does not have the working ability

.

4.Its SI unit is “Joule” and Its SI unit is “Kelvin”.

5.It is measured by the calorimeter and It is measured by the thermometer

.

6.It is represented by “Q”. and It is represented by “T”.

Explanation:

A calorimeter is an object used for calorimetry, or the process of measuring the heat of chemical reactions or physical changes as well as heat capacity. ... A simple calorimeter just consists of a thermometer attached to a metal container full of water suspended above a combustion chamber.
