Jay bought a toy car. To make the car move, he must turn a key attached to a spring. Turning the key winds the spring tight. The

toy car moves when the key is released and the spring unwinds. What’s the main transformation of energy in this example?

The chemical energy in Jay's body, to kinetic energy in the car

Answer:

Elastic potential energy into kinetic energy

Explanation:

Initially, all the energy is stored in the spring, which is compressed. This energy is called elastic potential energy, and it is equal to

U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

where k is the spring constant and x is the compression of the spring. When the key is turned, the spring is released, and all this energy is converted into kinetic energy, which is the energy due to the motion of the car. The equation that gives this energy is

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where m is the mass of the car and v is the speed of the car.

Guys please helpp!!!!1

Answer:

Position A/Position E

K = E, U = 0

Position B/Position D

K = (1-x)\cdot E, U = x\cdot E, for 0 < x < 1

Position C

K = 0, U = E

Explanation:

Let suppose that ball-Earth system represents a conservative system. By Principle of Energy Conservation, total energy (E) is the sum of gravitational potential energy (U) and translational kinetic energy (K), all measured in joules. In addition, gravitational potential energy is directly proportional to height (h) and translational kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of velocity.

Besides, gravitational potential energy is increased at the expense of translational kinetric energy. Then, relative amounts at each position are described below:

Position A/Position E

K = E, U = 0

Position B/Position D

K = (1-x)\cdot E, U = x\cdot E, for 0 < x < 1

Position C

K = 0, U = E

How far from the castle wall does the launched rock hit the ground?
lina2011 [118]
King Arthur's knights use a catapult to launch a rock from their vantage point on top of the castle wall, 14 m above the moat. The rock is launched at a speed of 27 m/s and an angle of 32degrees above the horizontal.

High-speed stroboscopic photographs show that the head of a 210-g golf club is traveling at 56 m/s just before it strikes a 46-g
tamaranim1 [39]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of golf club, m₁ = 210 g = 0.21 kg

Initial velocity of golf club, u₁ = 56 m/s

Mass of another golf ball which is at rest, m₂ = 46 g = 0.046 kg

After the collision, the club head travels (in the same direction) at 42 m/s. We need to find the speed of the golf ball just after impact. Let it is v.

Initial momentum of golf ball, p_i=m_1u_1=0.21\ kg\times 56\ m/s=11.76\ kg-m/s

After the collision, final momentum p_f=0.21\ kg\times 42\ m/s+0.046v

Using the conservation of momentum as :

p_i=p_f

11.76\ kg-m/s=0.21\ kg\times 42\ m/s+0.046v

v = 63.91 m/s

So, the speed of the  golf ball just after impact is 63.91 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
