Elastic Energy is stored in it.
Well there is many ways we are not evolved as much as we think we are from being we die from a lot of diseases to world hunger and other things to be honest humans are far from being really evolved in life we really need to focus on cures and solving world hunger and fighting among ourselves
Hope this helps
The springs stored energy is transferred to the cube as kinetic energy and then by the slop the KE is converted to height energy.
<span>0.5 . k . x^2 = 0.5 . m . v^2 = m . g . ∆h </span>
<span>0.5 . 50 . (0.1^2) = 0.05 . 9.8 . ∆h </span>
<span>∆h = 0.51 m = 51 cm </span>
<span>This is the height gained </span>
<span>Distance along the slope = ∆h / sin 60 = 0.589 = 59 cm </span>
<span>In the second case, the stored spring energy is converted into height energy AND frictional heat energy. </span>
<span>The height energy is m . g . d sin 60 where d is the distance the cube moves along the slope. </span>
<span>The Frictional energy converted is F . d </span>
<span>F ( the frictional force ) = µ . N </span>
<span>N ( the reaction to the component of the gravity force perpendicular to the surface of the slope ) = m . g . cos60 </span>
<span>Total energy converted </span>
<span>0.5 . k . x^2 = (m . g . dsin60) + (µ . m . g . cos60 . d ) </span>
<span>Solve for d </span>
<span>d = 0.528 = 53 cm</span>
Answer:
A person climbs a set of stairs
Explanation:
Potential energy is said to be possessed by an object due to its position. As the height from the ground level increase, the potential energy increases. It is calculated by the below formula as :
P = mgh
Out of the given options, the option that illustrates an increase in potential energy is option (b) i.e. a person climbs a set of stairs. As he steps one stair, its position from ground increases. It means its potential energy increases.
