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.

Which law describes how the Earth applies a gravitational force on the Moon, the Moon applies a gravitational force on Earth? *
nikdorinn [45]
The answer is Newton's 3rd Law. The reason why is because a force is a push or a pull that acts upon an object as a results of its interaction with another object. ... These two forces are called action and reaction forces and are the subject ofNewton's third law of motion. Formally stated, Newton's third law is: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

The formula v = √2.5r models the maximum safe speed, v, in miles per hour, at which a car can travel on a curved road with radiu
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

The maximum safe speed of the car is 30.82 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that,

The formula that models the maximum safe speed, v, in miles per hour, at which a car can travel on a curved road with radius of curvature r r, is in feet is given by :

v=\sqrt{2.5\ r}.........(1)

A highway crew measures the radius of curvature at an exit ramp on a highway as 380 feet, r = 380 feet

Put the value of r in equation (1) as :

v=\sqrt{2.5\ \times 380}

v = 30.82 m/s

So, the maximum safe speed of the car is 30.82 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

The space shuttle, in circular orbit around the Earth, collides with a small asteroid which ends up in the shuttle's storage bay
Artemon [7]

Answer:

b

Explanation:

The space shuttle, in circular orbit around the Earth, collides with a small asteroid which ends up in the shuttle's storage bay.

This form of collision is called inelastic collision. And inelastic collision momentum is conserved but the kinetic energy is not conserved. Hence the correct option is b. only momentum is conserved.
