What steps are involved in converting potential energy to kinetic energy, or kinetic energy to potential energy?

Physics

Ray Of Light [21]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy obtained by an object due to the position of an object. Whereas kinetic energy is the energy obtained by an object due to its motion.

For example, an ball is placed over a building of height h. Then steps followed to covert its potential energy into kinetic energy are as follows.

Step 1: When ball is at placed over a building of height h, then it has only potential energy and no kinetic energy.

Step 2: A man pushes the ball and it moves in the downward direction.

Step 3: When ball starts to move or fall it gains kinetic energy, that is potential energy now becomes equal to 0.

Similarly, on reaching the ground and after bouncing a few times when it stop moving then kinetic energy converts into potential energy.

A billiards ball B rests on a horizontal surface and is struck by another billiards ball A of the same mass m = 0.2 kg. Ball A i
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

v1 = 15.90 m/s

v2 = 8.46 m/s

mechanical energy before collision = 32.4 J

mechanical energy after collision = 32.433 J

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 0.2 kg

speed = 18 m/s

angle =  28°

to find out

final velocity and  mechanical energy both before and after the collision

solution

we know that conservation of momentum remain same so in x direction

mv = mv1 cosθ + mv2cosθ

put here value

0.2(18) = 0.2 v1 cos(28) + 0.2 v2 cos(90-28)

3.6 =  0.1765 V1 + 0.09389 v2    ................1

and

in y axis

mv = mv1 sinθ - mv2sinθ

0 = 0.2 v1 sin28 - 0.2 v2 sin(90-28)

0 = 0.09389 v1 - 0.1768 v2   .......................2

from equation 1 and 2

v1 = 15.90 m/s

v2 = 8.46 m/s

so

mechanical energy  before collision = 1/2 mv1² + 1/2 mv2²

mechanical energy before collision = 1/2 (0.2)(18)² + 0

mechanical energy before collision = 32.4 J

and

mechanical energy after collision = 1/2 (0.2)(15.90)² + 1/2 (0.2)(8.46)²

mechanical energy after collision = 32.433 J
