What is potential energy

2 answers:

7 0

The energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within itself, electric charge, and other factors.

Example: A roller coaster. When you are going up the energy that is accumulating is potential energy and when you go down the energy that is release is kinetic energy

Answer:

The potential energy is the energy possessed by the body by the position relative to other things. It is also known as stored energy

The formula is: P.E = mgh

P.E = mass * gravitational energy * height

You pull with a force of 295 N on a rope that is attached to a block of mass 22 kg, and the block slides across the floor at a c

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Fnet = 0

Explanation:

Since the block slides across the floor at constant speed, this means that it's not accelerated.
According Newton's 2nd Law, if the acceleration is zero, the net force on the sliding mass must be zero.
This means that there must be a friction force opposing to the horizontal component of the applied force, equal in magnitude to it:

$F_{appx} = F_{app} * cos \theta = 295 N * cos 35 = 242 N (1)$

In the vertical direction, the block is not accelerated either, so the sum of the normal force and the vertical component of the applied force, must be equal in magnitude to the force of gravity on the block:

$F_{appy} = F_{app} * cos \theta = 295 N * sin 35 = 169 N (2)$

⇒ 169 N + Fn = Fg = 216 N (3)

This means that there must be a normal force equal to the difference between Fappy and Fg, as follows:
Fn = 216 N - 169 N = 47 N (4)

A 2.5-kg ball and a 5.0-kg ball have an elastic collision. Before the collision, the 2.5-kg ball was at rest and the other ball

lesantik [10]

The kinetic energy of 2.5 kg ball after collision is 27.09 J.

Answer:

Explanation:

In elastic collision, the sum of momentum of the objects before collision will be equal to the sum of momentum of the objects after collision.

We know that momentum is the product of mass and velocity acting on any object.

So, the conservation of energy in elastic collision leads to following equation:

$M_{1} u_{1} +M_{2} u_{2}=M_{1} v_{1}+M_{2} v_{2}$

Since, the momentum is conserved ,the kinetic energy will also be conserved in elastic collision. So

$M_{1} u_{1} ^{2}+M_{2} u_{2} ^{2}=M_{1}v_{1} ^{2}+ M_{2}v_{2} ^{2}$

Since initial velocity for M1 ball is zero, then

$M_{2} u_{2}=M_{1} v_{1}+M_{2} v_{2}$

and

$M_{2} u_{2} ^{2}=M_{1}v_{1} ^{2}+ M_{2}v_{2} ^{2}$

So, on solving all the above equation, we get an equation for velocity and that is

$\frac{2M_{2}u_{2} }{(M_{1}+M_{2} }$ =final velocity of ball with mass 2.5 kg

$v = \frac{2(5*3.5)}{2.5+5}=4.67 m/s$

So kinetic energy will be 1/2 mv2

Kinetic energy of 2.5 kg ball is $\frac{1}{2}*2.5*(4.67)^{2} =27.09 J$

So the kinetic energy of 2.5 kg ball after collision is 27.09 J.

The distiction between long and short term memory

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The main difference between short term and long term memory is that the short term memory stores data temporarily while the long term memory stores data permanently. Moreover, the short term memory is volatile while the long term memory is nonvolatile. Memory is the component in a computer that stores data and information.
