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

Physics
1 answer:
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.

If riding a lawnmower engine exerts 19 hp in one minute to move the lawnmower how much work is done
ioda

Answer:

the work done by the lawnmower is 236.14 J.

Explanation:

Given;

power exerted by the lawnmower engine, P = 19 hp

time in which the power was exerted, t = 1 minute = 60 s.

1 hp = 745.7 watts

The work done by the lawnmower is calculated as follows;

Work = Energy = \frac{Power}{time} \\\\Work = \frac{(19 \times 745.7)}{60} = 236.14 \ J

Therefore, the work done by the lawnmower is 236.14 J.

Describe what happens to chemical<br> bonds during a chemical reaction
dimulka [17.4K]

Explanation:

The bonds that keep molecules together break apart and form new bonds during chemical reactions, rearranging atoms into different substances. Each bond takes a distinct amount of energy to either break or form; the reaction does not take place without this energy, and the reactants stay as they were.

Why does apparent depth of different liquids vary
Anvisha [2.4K]
It’s due to the refraction of light rays as they traverse the boundary between water and air. The greater the viewing angle, the more the bending of the light and therefore the less the apparent depth. An object placed in a denser medium, when viewed from rarer medium appears to be at a lesser depth than its real depth due to refraction of light.
