Answer:
The Energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position or state is called Potential energy.
Mathematically potential energy can be written as,
Potential energy = mgh
Where 'm' represents mass of the body, 'g' represents gravity of the earth and 'h' represents height of body. Potential energy depends on the height, higher the hight from the surface of the earth, maximum will be the potential energy.
Answer:
-3.4 m
Explanation:
The displacement is the difference between the final position and the initial position:
4.4 m - 7.8 m = -3.4 m
From the information given in the drawing, it's not possible
to tell whether the displacements are equal, because we
don't know what the vectors represent.
If the vectors are distances, then the displacements are not
equal, because the distance between the start and end points
are not equal.
If the vectors are speeds, then they don't tell us anything about
the distance between the start and end points, so we can't calculate
the displacements.
Answer:
Emechanical=mgh+
mν²
Explanation:
The equation for the total mechanical energy is:
Emechanical=Epotential+Ekinetic
In which,
Epotential=mgh; m: mass of the body, g: gravity; h: height
Ekinetic=mν²; m: mass of the body, ν: velocity of the body
So,
Emechanical=mgh+mν²
