How does the pendulum help to illustrate the conservation of energy?

Physics

antiseptic1488 [7]4 years ago
5 0

When the pendulum is at it's highest point of it's swing, the pendulum is momentarily motionless as it changes direction. At this point, the pendulum has ZERO kinetic energy, and the most potential energy. When the pendulum is swinging down again, that potential energy is coverted into kinetic energy.

Since the energy is being converted, not created, the swinging pendulum illustrates the law of consevation of energy.

Andrews [41]

Answer: 13.94 tons/s

Explanation:

On adding heat energy to a substance, the temperature would be changed by a particular amount. This relationship between heat energy and temperature is often different for each material. The specific heat, is a value that describes how they relate.

Heat energy = mass flow rate * specific heat * Δ T

Q = MC (ΔΦ)

Heat energy, Q= 3.5*10^8J

Mass flow rate, M= ?

Specific heat, C= 4184j/KgC

Change in temperature, ΔΦ= 6°C

M = Q/CΔΦ

M = (3.5*10^8)/4184*6

M = 13942kg/s

M = 13.94 tons/s

Bumek [7]
The current will decrease as the resistance has now increased, meaning less current will be 'let through' the resistor. (assuming it's in series, there's no image)
