Answer:

When a seagull picks an oyster up into the sky and then lets it drop on the rocks below to open the shell; where is the oyster's potential energy greatest? Where is its kinetic energy greatest?

Potential energy is greatest at maximum height; kinetic energy is greatest just before the oyster strikes the ground.

Answer:

Potential energy is greatest right before the bird drops it. Kinetic energy is greatest the instant before the oyster hits the ground

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy stored in an object you store energy in an object by raising it higher in the air.

Kinetic energy is moving energy as the oyster falls it loses the stored energy and it goes into the moving energy which is kinetic.

A ball having a mass of 0.20 kilograms is placed at a height of 3.25 meters. If it is dropped from this height, what will be the
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

3.4 Joules

Explanation:

the KE= 1/2 mv^2

By the equation v^2  = u^2  + 2as

where v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity=0

a is the acceleration=-9.81

s is the displacement = 3.25-1.5=1.75(downwards)=-1.75

v^2= 2(-9.81)(-1.75)

v^2=34.335

KE: 1/2(0.2)(34.335)

=3.4335

=3.4 Joules( rounded to 1 decimal places)

How long will it take a basketball starting from rest to roll without slipping 2.6 m down an incline that makes an angle of 30.8
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

<em>t = 1.02 s</em>

Explanation:

friction = 0 N (no slipping)

downward force along the inclined plane = F = mgsin(30.8)

                                                                        F = ma

⇒                                                                      a = 9.81 sin(30.8)

                                                                         a = 5.02 m/s^2

now we have

displacement = s = 2.6 m

acceleration   = a = 5.02m/s^2

initial velocity = Vi = 0m/s

time                 = t =  ?

<u>APPLYING THE 2ND EQUATION OF MOTION:</u>

<em>    S = (Vi)(t)+0.5at^2</em>

<em>2.6 = 0(t) + 0.5 * 5.02 * t^2</em>

<em>t = 1.02 s</em>

Which of the following statements are true?
Virty [35]

Answer:

The true statements are;

a.The decrease in the amplitude of an oscillation caused by dissipative forces is called damping

b.An oscillation that is maintained by a driving force is called forced oscillation

Explanation:

To answer the question, we analyze each of the options as follows;

a.The decrease in the amplitude of an oscillation caused by dissipative forces is called damping.

The above statement is true as damped oscillation is one in which the amplitude is decreased by dissipative forces

b.An oscillation that is maintained by a driving force is called forced oscillation.

When a damped oscillator is allowed to oscillate by itself, it will stop eventually. However when a force is applied to maintain the oscillation the oscillation is then known as a forced oscillation

The above statement is true

c.In a mechanical system, the amplitude of an oscillation diminishes with time unless the lost mechanical energy is replaced.

The above statement is only true in damped oscillation system

d.The increase in amplitude of an oscillation by a driving force is called forced oscillation.

Forced oscillation, as described above, is one the maintains the oscillation of  damped oscillator, therefore, the above statement is not correct.
