Answer:
An object has potential energy (stored energy) when it is not in motion. Once a force has been applied or it begins to move the potential energy changes to kinetic energy (energy of motion).
EXAMPLE: A rock sitting on the edge of a cliff. If the rock falls, the potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy, as the rock will be moving. A stretched elastic string in a longbow.
If it starts from 0m/s...
s=?
u=0
a=-10
t=8
s=ut +1/2at^2
so s=(0×8)+ (0.5×-10×64)
s=0+(32×-10)
s=32×-10
s=-320metres
Answer:
approximately 5.8 seconds
Explanation:
if you where to time how fast a rock would fall 12 meters it would approximately be 5.8 seconds
The electricity produced by a generator works through the concepts of the following three factors; magnetic field, voltage and current. When a conductor with current flowing in it is placed in a magnetic field, it will cause the electrons to move in a direction perpendicular to the magnetic field. When working with generators, the guide for this direction is Fleming's Right Hand Rule. Since the electron move in perpendicular motion with magnetic field all the time, it would cause it to spin in a helical direction. These turns would then induce voltage and create electricity.
