False, as an object falls its potential energy turns into kinetic energy thus decreasing the potential energy.

I). Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy in an object that is used to do work.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

false statement : b )  For the motion of a cart on an incline plane having a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.5, the magnitude of the change in kinetic energy equals the magnitude of the change in gravitational potential energy

Explanation:

mechanical energy = potential energy + kinetic energy = constant

differentiating both side

Δ potential energy + Δ kinetic energy = 0

Δ potential energy = -  Δ kinetic energy

first statement is true.

Friction is a non conservative force so inter-conversion of potential and kinetic energy is not possible in that case. In case of second  option,  the correct relation is as follows

change in gravitational potential energy = change in kinetic energy + work done against friction .

So given 2 nd  option is incorrect.

In case of no change in gravitational energy , work done is equal to

change in kinetic energy.

Suppose a plane accelerates from rest for 30 s, achieving a takeoff speed of 80 m/s after traveling a distance of 1200 m down th
Margaret [11]

Answer:

300 m

Explanation:

The train accelerate from the rest so u = 0 m/sec

Final speed that is v = 80 m/sec

Time t = 30 sec

The distance traveled by first plane = 1200 m

We know the equation of motion S=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2 where s is distance a is acceleration and u is initial velocity

Using this equation for first plane 1200=0\times 30+\frac{1}{2}a30^2

a=2.67\frac{m}{sec^2}

As the acceleration is same for both the plane so a for second plane will be 2.67 \frac{m}{sec^2}

The another equation of motion is v^2=u^2+2as using this equation for second plane 40^2=0+2\times 2.67\times s

s = 300 m
