During this time, the total mechanical energy of the object remains constant.
Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:</u>
The sum total of potential energy and the kinetic energy presented in the system is called mechanical energy. The total mechanical energy in the system, which represents the combined potential and kinetic energies, remains constant as long as the only force work at conservative forces, and mechanical energy is maintained on this principle.
For example, a gravity box in which we throw the ball straights up, and then leave the hand with a specific amounts of kinetic energy. In the first half of the track, there is no kinetic energy, but it has potential energy similar to kinetic energy that it had when that left our hand. When we catch that again, it has the same kinetic energy as when that left our hand. That is why gravity belongs to the category of conservative forces.
Just like mass, energy, linear momentum, and electric charge, angular momentum is also conserved.
The wheel has angular momentum. I don't remember whether it's
up or down (right-hand or left-hand rule), but it's consistent with
counterclockwise rotation as viewed from above.
When you grab the wheel and stop it from spinning (relative to you),
that angular momentum has to go somewhere.
As I see it, the angular momentum transfers through you as a temporary
axis of rotation, and eventually to the merry-go-round. Finally, all the mass
of (merry-go-round) + (you) + (wheel) is rotating around the big common
axis, counterclockwise as viewed from above, and with the magnitude
that was originally all concentrated in the wheel.
Answer:
0.5
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
The angle between their transmission axes, θ = 60°
Now,
We have the relation,
I₁ = I₀cos²θ
where,
I₁ is the intensity of the transmitted light
I₀ is the intensity of the incident light
on rearranging, we get
=cos²60°
or
=0.5
Because the sun evaporates the water out of the clothes
Answer:
A. Materials with a low index of refraction cause light to refract very little.
