A 0.40-kg particle moves under the influence of a single conservative force. At point A, where the particle has a speed of 10 m/

s, the potential energy associated with the conservative force is 40 J. As the particle moves from A to B, the force does 25 J of work on the particle. What is the value of the potential energy at point B

Answer:

The value of the potential energy of the particle at point B is 85 joules.

Explanation:

According to the Principle of Energy Conservation, the energy cannot be created nor destroyed, only transformed. The particle at point A has kinetic and potential energy and receives a work due to an external conservative force (Work-Energy Theorem), whose sum is equal to potential energy at point B. Mathematically speaking, the expression that describes the phenomenon is:

K_{A} + U_{A} + W_{A \rightarrow B} = U_{B}

Where:

K_{A} - Kinetic energy at point A, measured in joules.

U_{A} - Potential energy at point A, measured in joules.

W_{A \rightarrow B} - Work due to conservative force from A to B, measured in joules.

U_{B} - Potential energy at point B, measured in joules.

The initial kinetic energy of the particle is:

K_{A} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2}

Where:

m - Mass, measured in kilograms.

v - Velocity, measured in meters per second.

If m = 0.4\,kg and v = 10\,\frac{m}{s}, then:

K_{A} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (0.4\,kg)\cdot \left(10\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}

K_{A} = 20\,J

Finally, the value of the potential energy at point B is:

U_{B} = 20\,J + 40\,J + 25\,J

U_{B} = 85\,J

The value of the potential energy of the particle at point B is 85 joules.

-Boston tea party-
lisov135 [29]

Answer: The Boston Tea Party was a political protest that occurred on December 16, 1773, at Griffin’s Wharf in Boston, Massachusetts. American colonists, frustrated and angry at Britain for imposing “taxation without representation,” dumped 342 chests of tea, imported by the British East India Company into the harbor. The event was the first major act of defiance to British rule over the colonists. It showed Great Britain that Americans wouldn’t take taxation and tyranny sitting down, and rallied American patriots across the 13 colonies to fight for independence.
