Describe the transformation of mechanical energy in a ball when it is thrown straight up and then comes back down

Physics
1 answer:
zhenek [66]3 years ago

I believe that the mechanical energy would transform from starting out as kinetic, the reaching the top it would be potential, then go back to kinetic as it is falling back down.


I'm not 100% sure that this is right but if I had to take a guess this is what I would say.

Two electric motors drive two elevators of equal mass in a three-story building 10 meters tall. Each elevator has a mass of 1,00
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

(C) Work=9.8×10⁴J

Explanation:

Given data

mass m=1000 kg

building height=10 m

To

Find work

Solution

As we know that:

Work=mass*gravity*height\\W=mgh\\W=(1000kg)*(9.8m/s^{2} )*(10m)\\W=9.8*10^{4}J

So option (C) is correct one

A rock is dropped from the top of a tower. When it is 40 meters above the ground velocity of 17 m/s. When its velocity is 24 m/s
eimsori [14]

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Let us consider 40 meter above ground as origin.

Initial velocity = 17 m/s

Final velocity = 24 m/s

Acceleration = 9.81 m/s

We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Substituting

         24² = 17² + 2 x 9.81 x s

           s = 14.63 m

Distance traveled by rock = 14.63 m down.

Height of rock from ground = 40 - 14.63 = 25.37 m = 25.4 m

Option B is the correct answer.

During one cycle, a refrigerator removes 500 J from a cold reservoir and discharges 800 J to its hot reservoir. (a) What is its
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

a)COP = 1.67

b) W = 300 J

Explanation:

given,

refrigerator removes = 500 J from a cold reservoir

discharge = 800 J to its hot reservoir

a) COP = \dfrac{Q}{w}      

   COP = \dfrac{500}{800-500}

   COP = 1.67                        

b) heat per cycle exhausted to the

     W + 500 = 800                        

     W = 800- 500                        

      W = 300 J

True or false The Earth revolves around the sun in a nearly circular orbit.
Allisa [31]
Well, see, there you go ... using a word that means different things
to different people, and may even mean different things to the same
people at different times.

What does "nearly" mean ? ?  And how do you measure how far
or near to a circle it is ? ?

Every closed gravitational orbit is an ellipse.  An ellipse looks like a
circle that either has or hasn't been squashed.  If it's perfectly round
and hasn't been squashed at all, then we call it a circle.  If it's been
squashed at all, then we call it an ellipse. 

To come up with a number that tells how squashed it is, we divide
               (the distance from the center to one focus of the ellipse)
         by
               (the distance from the center to one vertex of the ellipse). 

The eccentricity of a circle is zero.  When you squeeze the circle,
the more you squash it, the higher the eccentricity gets, until ... if
you totally squash it down to a straight line ... the eccentricity is 1.

Perfect circle . . . . . . zero
Totally squashed . . . 1.00

Orbit            Eccentricity    Compared to Earth

Mercury              0.21               x  12.3
Venus                 0.007             x    0.4
Earth                   0.017             x   1.0
Moon                  0.055             x    3.3
Mars                   0.094             x    5.6
Pluto                   0.244             x 14.6
Halley's Comet  0.97               x  57.1


Conclusions:

-- All of the planets (and their moons too) have nearly circular orbits.

-- While Pluto was considered a planet, it had the most eccentric orbit
of all.  (That's one of the reasons it lost its standing as a planet.  There
were other reasons.)

-- Now the planet with most eccentric orbit is Mercury.  The orbits didn't
change.  Pluto just got bumped from the list.

-- Most comets have very eccentric, far-from-circlular, elliptical orbits.
They go waaaay out, and come waaay in close to the Sun.
