A pendulum has 201 J of potential energy at the highest point of its swing. How much kinetic energy will it have at the bottom o
1 answer:
<h2>Hello!</h2>
The answer is: 201 J of kinetic energy.
<h2>Why?</h2>The motion of a pendulum (with no friction considered) is a continuous exchange between potential energy and kinetic energy.
So, at the highest point of its swing, the potential energy will be the maximum potential energy that the pendulum can have and the kinetic energy will be 0 since at max height the speed tends to 0.
On the opposite side, when the pendulum is at the bottom (the lowest point of its swing) the potential energy will be the minimum (tends to 0) but the kinetic energy will be the maximum.
Also, in the pendulum motion, the total energy is conserved, meaning that:
Where,
PE(h),is the potential energy at the highest point.
KE(h), is the kinetic energy at the highest point.
PE(l), is the potential energy at the lowest point (bottom of pendulum swing).
KE(l), is the kinetic energy at the lowest point (bottom of pendulum swing).
m, is the mass of the object.
g, is the acceleration of gravity.
v, is the speed of the object.
So, what is the energy at the bottom of its swing?
So, the pendulum has 201 of kinetic energy at the bottom of its swing.
Meaning that the energy is conserved.
Have a nice day!

Answer:
Electrons are influenced by internal forces.
-On the temperature, density of electrons per unit of volume and relaxation time.
-The temperature
Explanation:
The Drude model neglects interactions between electrons and ions and with themselves. Those interactions (by which we refer as electromagnetic forces) influence in the random movement and freedom of the electron. So, they could be more restricted or could influence in conductivity more.
The deduction of the resistivity comes from the Ohm's law, which states that the Electric field in the material is proportional to the current density of electrons by a constant, which is the resistivity itself. The equation goes as follows:
Where e refers to electron (or the charge of it), τ is the relaxation time (average time between collisions), m is the mass and n is the density of charges (electrons in this case) per volume. However, experimentally resistivity is also dependent on temperature, which actually influence the relaxation time. The thermal energy influence in the behavior of the electrons, making them collide with phonons, have more randomness and reduced mean free path.
