When three or more coplanar forces are acting at a point and the vector diagram closes, there is no resultant. The forces acting at the point are in equilibrium.
Explanation:
In physical sciences, mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy. It is the macroscopic energy associated with a system. The principle of conservation of mechanical energy states that if an isolated system is subject only to conservative forces, then the mechanical energy is constant. If an object moves in the opposite direction of a conservative net force, the potential energy will increase; and if the speed (not the velocity) of the object changes, the kinetic energy of the object also changes. In all real systems, however, nonconservative forces, such as frictional forces, will be present, but if they are of negligible magnitude, the mechanical energy changes little and its conservation is a useful approximation. In elastic collisions, the kinetic energy is conserved, but in inelastic collisions some mechanical energy may be converted into thermal energy. The equivalence between lost mechanical energy (dissipation) and an increase in temperature was discovered by James Prescott Joule.
Answer:
Adsorption
Explanation:
Sidewalk cooking of egg is very popular in America. In summer people release fireworks in night sky and cook egg on the concrete sidewalk to check the level of temperature. When sunlight fall on the sidewalk most of the light is reflected back but some darker material adsorbs some photon, and when these photons are transferred to egg molecules it causes vibration among them and produce heat and cook egg.
Answer:
