When storm clouds produce lightening and thunder, then, potential energy changes into kinectic energy.

The clouds become negatively charged,and the ground is positively charged during a storm. So there creates a potential difference between the charged clouds and the ground. And when this becomes huge so much that it over comes the electrical insulation cover of air, the electrons jump to the ground.i.e. the potential energy changes into kinetic energy.

Answer: When storm clouds produce lightning and thunder, <u>electric potential </u>energy changes to <u>light </u>energy and <u>sound </u>energy.

Explanation:

A lightning occurs within cloud, between two clouds or cloud and ground whenever electric potential difference is created. Electric discharge occurs between the two electrically charged regions. The electric potential energy converts into light energy and sound energy. Lightning is oftenly accompanied by sound. Since the speed of light is much greater than speed of sound, we hear sound of lightning after seeing it.

A simple harmonic oscillator of amplitude A has a total energy E.
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

a) K=E-\frac{kA^2}{18}

b) U=\frac{kA^2}{18}

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mechanical energy states that total mechanical energy remains constant during oscillation. Mechanical energy is defined as the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy:

E=U+K\\E=\frac{kx^2}{2}+\frac{mv^2}{2}

a) The position is one-third the amplitude. So, we have x=\frac{1}{3}A. Replacing and solving for K

E=\frac{k(\frac{1}{3}A)^2}{2}+K\\E=\frac{kA^2}{18}+K\\K=E-\frac{kA^2}{18}

b) The potential energy is defined as:

U=\frac{kx^2}{2}

Replacing:

U=\frac{k(\frac{1}{3}A)^2}{2}\\U=\frac{kA^2}{18}

4.7 cm. The tube is sealed at one end and loaded with lead shot to give it a total mass of M = 130 g. The tube floats in water (
babunello [35]

Answer:

Depth is 7.49cm

Explanation:

Given that;

The diameter of tube is (D)=4.7cm

Area of the tube is =πD^2/4

Area is 3.142*4.7*4.7/4=17.35cm2

Mass(M)=130g

Density =1g/cm^3

Recall that Density =mass /volume

Hence volume =130/1=130cm^3

Also note

Volume=area*depth

130=17.35*depth

Depth=130/17.35=7.49cm
