The answer should be A.
Hope this helps :-)
Answer:
36.55 J
Explanation:
PE = Potential energy
KE = Kinetic energy
TE = Total energy
The following data were obtained from the question:
Position >> PE >>>>> KE >>>>>> TE
1 >>>>>>>> 72.26 >> 27.74 >>>> 100
2 >>>>>>>> 63.45 >> x >>>>>>>> 100
3 >>>>>>>> 58.09 >> 41.91 >>>>> 100
The kinetic energy of the pendulum at position 2 can be obtained as follow:
From the table above, at position 2,
Potential energy (PE) = 63.45 J
Kinetic energy (KE) = unknown = x
Total energy (TE) = 100 J
TE = PE + KE
100 = 63.45 + x
Collect like terms
100 – 63.45 = x
x = 36.55 J
Thus, the kinetic energy of the pendulum at position 2 is 36.55 J.
All matter is made of tiny particles called atoms, molecules and ions; the tiny particles in solids are tightly packed and can only vibrate. The particles in liquids also vibrate but are able to move around by rolling over each other and sliding around. In gases, the particles move freely with rapid, random motion.
Third choice because the others make no sense
As thermal energy increases and there is more particle movement.
- Thermal energy is the energy possessed by the system or object due to the movement of its particles.
- For example kinetic energy of the particles
- Higher the motion of the particles more will be the thermal energy of the system or object and vice-versa
- It is also termed as heat energy of a system or object
- The higher the thermal energy, the higher will be the temperature and vice versa.
So, from this, we can conclude that as thermal energy increases and there is more particle movement.
