Describe a change caused by kinetic energy as well as a change that involves potential energy

2 answers:

5 0

Kinetic energy is formed when the object is in motion.
Potential energy is the energy that is formed relative to others.

One of the example is Corn flour factory.

Corn turned into flour by a windmill that moved by the waterfall. Movement of the mill is relative to the power given by waterfall (potential energy) and the spinning crushes the corn into flour (kinetic energy)

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity divided by

denpristay [2]

Answer:

Time elapsed

Explanation:

Acceleration is a vector quantity. It is defined as:

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time elapsed

Acceleration is measured in meters per second squared (m/s^2). It must be noticed that acceleration is a vector, so it also has a direction. In particular:

- when acceleration is negative, it means that the object is slowing down, so acceleration is in opposite direction to the velocity

- when acceleration is positive, it means that the object is speeding up, so acceleration is in the same direction as the velocity

A uniform solid sphere rolls down an incline. A) What must be the incline angle (deg) if the linear acceleration of the center o

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

a) θ = 12.12°

b) equal to 0.21g

Explanation:

Solution:-

Declare variables:

- The mass of solid sphere, m

- The inclination angle, θ

- The linear acceleration a down the slope of the solid sphere is a = 0.21g

Where, g: The gravitational acceleration constant.

- The component of weight of solid sphere directed down the slope is given by:

Ws = m*g*sin ( θ )

- Apply Newton's second law of motion down the slope, state:

F_net = m*a

- The only net force acting on the solid sphere is the Weight. So, the equation of motion in the coordinate axis ( down the slope ).

Ws = m*a

m*g*sin ( θ ) = m*0.21*g

- Solve for inclination angle ( θ ):

sin ( θ ) = 0.21

θ = arcsin ( 0.21 )

θ = 12.12°

- If a friction-less block of mass ( m ) moves down the same slope then block has weight component down the slope as:

Wb = m*g*sin ( θ )

- Apply Newton's second law of motion down the slope, state:

F_net = m*a

- The only net force acting on the solid sphere is the Weight. So, the equation of motion in the coordinate axis ( down the slope ).

Ws = m*a

m*g*sin ( θ ) = m*a

- Solve for linear acceleration ( a ):

g*sin ( θ ) = a

a = sin ( 12.12 ) * g

a = 0.21g

Answer: The acceleration is independent of mass and only depends on the inclination angle θ.

Larger animals use proportionately less energy than smaller animals; that is, it takes less energy per kg to power an elephant t

marin [14]

Answer:

Part a)

$Q = 952 cal/day$

Part b)

$P = 46 Watt$

Part c)

$\Delta P = 54 W$

Explanation:

As we know that 5000 kg African elephant requires 70,000 Cal for basic needs per day

so we will have

$m = 5000 kg$

$Q = 70,000 Cal$

so we have energy required per kg

$E = \frac{70,000}{5000}$

$E = 14 cal/kg$

Part a)

now we know that per kg the energy required will be same

so we have mass of the human is 68 kg

so energy required per day is given as

$Q = 68 \times 14$

$Q = 952 cal/day$

Part b)

Resting power is the rate of energy in Joule required per sec

so it is given as

$P = \frac{952 \times 4186}{24\times 3600}$

$P = 46 Watt$

Part c)

resting power given in the book is

$P' = 100 W$

so this is less than the power given

$\Delta P = 100 - 46$

$\Delta P = 54 W$
