According to the Jefferson lab, "The scientific definition of work is: using a force to move an object a distance (when both the force and the motion of the object are in the same direction.)"
You can use the impulse momentum theorem and just subtract the two momenta.
P1 - P2 = (16-1.2)(11.5e4)=1702000Ns
If you first worked out the force and integrated it over time the result is the same
Answer:
Answer is D.......Falling water turns a turbine that helps generate electricity.
Explanation:
Hydropower plants capture the energy of falling water to generate electricity. A turbine converts the kinetic energy of falling water into mechanical energy. Then a generator converts the mechanical energy from the turbine into electrical energy.
Answer:
A, total.
<em>The </em><em>total</em><em> energy in a mechanical system is determined by adding the potential and kinetic enters together.</em>

Answer:
The answer to your question is Pe = 2452.5 J
Explanation:
Data
mass = 50 kg
height = 5 m
gravity = 9.81 m/s²
Process
The energy of this process is Potential energy which is proportional to the mass of the body, the gravity and the height of the body.
Pe = mgh
Substitution
Pe = (50)(5)(9.81)
Simplification
Pe = 2452.5 J
