<h2>Potential VS. Kinetic ENERGY</h2>

Scientists define energy as the ability to get work done. The work can be anything from breathing to riding a bike to taking a nap. All energy can be in one of two states: potential or kinetic.

<h3 /><h3>Potential Energy</h3>

Potential Energy is stored energy that is ready to go. A race car at the starting line of a race, a bicycle on top of a hill, and students waiting to go home from school are all examples of potential energy.

<h3 /><h3>Kinetic Energy</h3>

Kinetic Energy is energy at work. A race car speeding around a corner, a bicycle rushing down a hill, and students running home from school are all examples of kinetic energy.

(a) A light-rail commuter train accelerates at a rate of 1.35 m/s2 . How long does it take to reach its top speed of 80.0 km/h,

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

(a) Time t = 16.46 sec

(b) Time t =13.466 sec

Explanation:

(a) As the train starts from rest its initial velocity u = 0 m/sec

Acceleration $a=1.35m/sec^2$

Final speed v = 80 km/hr

$80km/hr=\frac{80\times 1000}{3600sec}=22.22m/sec$

From first equation of motion v =u+at

So $t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{22.22-0}{1.35}=16.46 sec$

(b) Now initial speed u = 22.22 m/sec

As finally train comes to rest so final speed v=0 m/sec

Deceleration $a=1.65m/sec^2$

So $t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{0-22.22}{-1.65}=13.466 sec$

Final velocity v = 0 m/sec

Time t = 8.30 sec

So acceleration is given by

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{0-22.22}{8.3}=-2.6771m/sec^2$

As acceleration is negative so it is a deceleration

-. A 2kg cart moving to the right at 5m/s collides with an 8kg cart at rest. As a

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

<em>The velocity of the carts after the event is 1 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Law Of Conservation Of Linear Momentum </u>

The total momentum of a system of bodies is conserved unless an external force is applied to it. The formula for the momentum of a body with mass m and speed v is

P=mv.

If we have a system of bodies, then the total momentum is the sum of the individual momentums:

$P=m_1v_1+m_2v_2+...+m_nv_n$

If a collision occurs and the velocities change to v', the final momentum is:

$P'=m_1v'_1+m_2v'_2+...+m_nv'_n$

Since the total momentum is conserved, then:

P = P'

In a system of two masses, the equation simplifies to:

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2=m_1v'_1+m_2v'_2$

If both masses stick together after the collision at a common speed v', then:

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v'$

The common velocity after this situation is:

$\displaystyle v'=\frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}$

The m1=2 kg cart is moving to the right at v1=5 m/s. It collides with an m2= 8 kg cart at rest (v2=0). Knowing they stick together after the collision, the common speed is:

$\displaystyle v'=\frac{2*5+8*0}{2+8}=\frac{10}{10}=1$

The velocity of the carts after the event is 1 m/s

A parallel-plate capacitor connected to a battery becomes fully charged. After the capacitor from the battery is disconnected, t

Valentin [98]

Answer:

C.)The energy stored in the capacitor doubles its original value.

Explanation:

The capacitance of a capacitor is given by:

C₁ = ∈A/d...............................(1)

If the distance between the plates is doubled

C₂ = ∈A/2d.............................(2a)

From equations (1) and (2), the relationship between C₁ and C₂ is:

C₂ = C₁/2....................................(2b)

The original Energy stored in the capacitor is given by :

E₁ = Q²/2C₁...............................(3)

On doubling the separation between the capacitance plates

E₂ = Q²/2C₂...............................(4a)

E₂ = Q²/2 * 1/C₂........................(4b)

Putting equation (2b) into (4b)

E₂ = Q²/2 * 2/C₁

E₂ = Q²/C₁.....................................(5)

Comparing equations (3) and (5)

E₂ = 2E₁

Therefore, the energy stored in the capacitor doubles its original value
