Answer:

 Em₀ = U = m g h ,  Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

Explanation:

When a car is on a ramp it has a certain amount of mechanical energy. At the highest point of the ramp the mechanical energy is fully potential given by

          Em₀ = U = m g h

As part of this energy descends down the ramp, part of this energy is transformed into kinetic energy and has one part of each, even though the sum remains the initial energy

            Em = K + U = ½ m v² + mg y

        y <h

when it reaches the bottom of the ramp it has no height therefore there is no potential energy, all of it has been transformed into kinetic energy

          Em_{f} = K = ½ m v²

This energy transformation is in the case that the friction force is zero.

If there is a friction force, it performs work against the low car, it is reflected in an increase in the internal energy (temperature) of the car. In this case the energy in the lower part is less than the initial one by a factor

         W_{nc} = - fr L

therefore the numeraire values ​​of the velocity are lower, due to the energy lost by friction.

marta [7]

Answer: hello question b is incomplete attached below is the missing question

a) attached below

b) V = 0.336 ft/s

Explanation:

Elongation ( Xo)  = 16/ 7 feet

mass attached to 4-foot spring = 16 pounds

medium has 9/2 times instanteous velocity

<u>a) Find the equation of motion if the mass is initially released from the equilibrium position with a downward velocity of 2 ft/s</u>

The motion is an underdamped motion because the value of β < Wo

Wo = 3.741 s^-1

attached below is a detailed solution of the question

A ball rolls forward in the grass slowing down as it rolls?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Yes it does, uh huh.  It slows down as it rolls.  That's a fact.

In order for the ball to roll forward, it has to push grass out of the way.  That takes energy.  To bend each blade of grass out of its way, the ball has to use a tiny bit of the kinetic energy that it has, so it gradually runs out of kinetic energy.  When its kinetic energy is all gone, it stops moving.

A car was moving at 14 m/s After 30 s, its speed increased to 20 m/s. What was the acceleration during this time ( need help fas
Arada [10]

Answer:let initial velocity u=14m/s

Final velocity v=20m/s

Time taken t=30

Acceleration =a

V=u +at

a= (20-14)/30

a=0.2m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity with respect to time.
