The Law of the Conservation of Energy is stating that the total mechanical energy is always conserved or in simpler terms, not used or saved.
adelina 88 [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: The correct option A.

Explanation:

  • Law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. But it can be transformed from one form to another.
  • Law of conservation of Mechanical energy  states that mechanical energy of the closed system remain constant until dissipative forces are absent. This means that potential energy gets converted in kinetic energy or vice versa.

Mechanical energy is defined as the sum of the both potential and kinetic energies.

M.E = P.E + K.E

So, from the given options the correct answer is option A.

An electron and a proton are held on an x axis, with the electron at x = + 1.000 m and the proton at x = - 1.000 m.how much work
aksik [14]
It is required an infinite work. The additional electron will never reach the origin.

In fact, assuming the additional electron is coming from the positive direction, as it approaches x=+1.00 m it will become closer and closer to the electron located at x=+1.00 m. However, the electrostatic force between the two electrons (which is repulsive) will become infinite when the second electron reaches x=+1.00 m, because the distance d between the two electrons is zero:
F=k_e  \frac{q_e q_e}{d^2}
So, in order for the additional electron to cross this point, it is required an infinite amount of work, which is impossible.

What is the sequence of energy transformations associated with a hydroelectric dam?
Hatshy [7]

Gravitational potential energy -> Kinetic energy -> Mechanical energy -> Electrical energy.

The water starts up (potential) and flows down (kinetic), the flowing water turns a big wheel (mechanical) which creates electricity (electrical).

Which best describes the surface of a concave mirror? It is flat. It is textured. It curves outward. It curves inward.
Sonja [21]

The concave mirror is a spherical-shaped mirror that has an inner curved surface. Hence, option (4) is correct.

What is a concave mirror?

The concave mirrors are spherical-shaped mirrors that are painted on the outward surface. It is also known as the converging mirror, having the recessed inner reflecting surface.

  • The concave mirrors are generally used for the purpose to focus the light. For that, they might have a reflecting surface, curved inwards, and the reflection of light is limited to the single focal point.
  • The reflecting surface of the concave mirror has its vertex or midpoint lying farther away from the objects than the edges.

Thus, we can conclude that the surface of the concave mirror is curved inward. Hence, option (4) is correct.

Running at 1.55 m/s, Bruce, the 40.0 kg quarterback, collides with Biff, the 90.0 kg tackle, who is traveling at 7.0 m/s in the
Margarita [4]

Answer:Bruce is knocked backwards at  

14

m

s

.

Explanation:

This is a problem of momentum (

p

) conservation, where

→

p

=

m

→

v

and because momentum is always conserved, in a collision:

→

p

f

=

p

We are given that

m

The momentum of Bruce (

Similarly, the momentum of Biff (

m

Because momentum is conserved, we know that given a momentum of

Using our known values:
