Mechanical energy is made when something is moved. The energy that is moving is kinetic. And potential energy is stored energy. Mechanical energy can be used to store energy and to cause moving energy. For instance: a slingshot. Pulling back the band creates potential energy and releasing it creates kinetic energy.

Why does the band of stability curve upward at high atomic numbers? excess neutrons are required due to the repulsion between th
ella [17]
The band of stability curves upward at high atomic numbers due to the fact that excess of neutrons are required due to the repulsion between protons.

Atomic number is the number of protons. As the number of protons (atomic number) increase, the electrical repulsion force, due to the same sign of the protons inside the nucleus, becomes more dominant compared to the nuclear force attractions, then the nucleus needs more neutrons to gain stability.The presence of more neutrons decrease the density of protons which decreases the repulsion among them.

A wooden block of mass M resting on a frictionless, horizontal surface is attached to a rigid rod of length ℓ and of negligible
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

a)

mv l

b)

\frac{M }{(M + m)}

Explanation:

Complete question statement is as follows :

A wooden block of mass M resting on a friction less, horizontal surface is attached to a rigid rod of length ℓ and of negligible mass. The rod is pivoted at the other end. A bullet of mass m traveling parallel to the horizontal surface and perpendicular to the rod with speed v hits the block and becomes embedded in it.

(a) What is the angular momentum of the bullet–block system about a vertical axis through the pivot? (Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary.)

(b) What fraction of the original kinetic energy of the bullet is converted into internal energy in the system during the collision? (Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary.)

a)

m = mass of the bullet

v = velocity of the bullet before collision

r = distance of the line of motion of bullet from pivot = l

L = Angular momentum of the bullet-block system

Angular momentum of the bullet-block system is given as

L = m v r

L = mv l

b)

V = final velocity of bullet block combination

Using conservation of momentum

Angular momentum of bullet block combination = Angular momentum of bullet

(M + m) V l = m v l\\V =\frac{mv}{(M + m)}

K_{o} = Initial kinetic energy of the bullet

Initial kinetic energy of the bullet is given as

K_{o} = (0.5) m v^{2}

K_{f} = Final kinetic energy of bullet block combination

Final kinetic energy of bullet block combination is given as

K_{f} = (0.5) (M + m) V^{2}

Fraction of original kinetic energylost is given as

Fraction = \frac{(K_{o} - K_{f})}{K_{o}} = \frac{((0.5) m v^{2} - (0.5) (M + m) V^{2})}{(0.5) m v^{2}}

Fraction = \frac{(m v^{2} - (M + m) (\frac{mv}{(M + m)})^{2})}{m v^{2}} = \frac{(Mm v^{2} + m^{2} v^{2} - m^{2} v^{2})}{(M + m) m v^{2}}

Fraction = \frac{(Mm v^{2} + m^{2} v^{2} - m^{2} v^{2})}{(M + m) m v^{2}}\\ \frac{M }{(M + m)}

In a closed system, what happens to the total energy of the system as energy conversion takes place?
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

In a closed system, the total energy is conserved or remains the same as energy transformations take place.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

This law of conservation of energy applies only to a closed system. A closed system is a system which does not exchange energy with its surroundings. All forms of energy conversions occurring within a closed system does not result in an increase or decrease of the total energy of the system, rather, energy remains constant. For example, the universe is a closed system in that all forms of energy conversions occurs within it and energy is not exchanged with an external environment. However, the earth is not a closed system as some of the energy it receives from the sun can be radiated out into space. Since it's an open system, its total energy can change.
