To explain, I will use the equations for kinetic and potential energy:
Potential energy is the potential an object has to move due to gravity. An object can only have potential energy if 1) <u>gravity is present</u> and 2) <u>it is above the ground at height h</u>. If gravity = 0 or height = 0, there is no potential energy. Example:
An object of 5 kg is sitting on a table 5 meters above the ground on earth (g = 9.8 m/s^2). What is the object's gravitational potential energy? <u>(answer: 5*5*9.8 = 245 J</u>)
(gravitational potential energy is potential energy)
<h3>Kinetic energy</h3>Kinetic energy is the energy of an object has while in motion. An object can only have kinetic energy if the object has a non-zero velocity (it is moving and not stationary). An example:
An object of 5 kg is moving at 5 m/s. What is the object's kinetic energy? (<u>answer: 5*5 = 25 J</u>)
<h3>Kinetic and Potential Energy</h3>Sometimes, an object can have both kinetic and potential energy. If an object is moving (kinetic energy) and is above the ground (potential), it will have both. To find the total (mechanical) energy, you can add the kinetic and potential energies together. An example:
An object of 5 kg is moving on a 5 meter table at 10 m/s. What is the objects mechanical (total) energy? (<u>answer: KE = .5(5)(10^2) = 250 J; PE = (5)(9.8)(5) = 245 J; total: 245 + 250 = 495 J</u>)
Answer:
10m/s²
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial velocity = 0m/s
Final velocity = 100m/s
Time taken = 10s
Unknown:
Acceleration = ?
Solution:
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
A =
v = final velocity
u = initial velocity
t = time taken
So, insert the parameters and solve;
A = = 10m/s²
Answer:
The string will break with a speed of 20 m/s.
Explanation:
It is given that,
Tension at which the string just breaks, T = 400 N
Mass of the stone, m = 10 kg
Radius of the circle, r = 10 m
We need to find the speed at which the string will break. The boy continuously increases the speed of the stone. The tension acting on the stone is equal to the centripetal force. It is a force that acts towards the center of circle. It is given by :
v = 20 m/s
So, the string will break with a speed of 20 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
