Answer:
11.16 J
Explanation:
Elastic energy (E) stored in the tendon is given by 1/2ke^2
SPRINTERS
k = 31N/mm = 31N/mm × 1000mm/1m = 31,000N/m
e = 41mm = 41mm × 1m/1000mm = 0.041m
E = 1/2 × 31,000 × 0.041^2 = 26.06J
NON-ATHLETES
k = 31,000N/m
e = 31mm = 31mm × 1m/1000 = 0.031m
E = 1/2 × 31,000 × 0.031^2 = 14.90 J
Difference = 26.06 J - 14.90 J = 11.16 J
Answer:
vaporation
Explanation:
latent heat also called the heat of vaporization is the amount of energy necessary to change a liquid to a vapour at constant temperature and pressure.
Answer:
1. When a spring scale is used to do work pulling a cart to the top of an incline, the elastic energy stored in the spring is converted into gravitational potential energy, since the top of an incline has a certain height.
2. The roller coaster get its gravitational potential energy from the kinetic energy it carries when it moves with a certain velocity.
3. Truckers use a ramp because it is easier to load a truck with less applied force. Although the work required is the same, without the ramp the force that they should apply is much greater, hence more difficult.
h is greater than (d x cos(Θ)), hence F2 is smaller than F1.
Explanation:
Scientists collect data for decades after Apollo 11's return to earth. Finding include that the moon is moving farther away from earth and that the universal force of gravity is stable.
Answer:
Earth orbits the Sun at an average distance of 149.60 million km (92.96 million mi), and one complete orbit takes 365.256 days (1 sidereal year), during which time Earth has traveled 940 million km (584 million mi).
