Write about the similarities and differences between kinetic and potential energy. Include specific, real world example in your
lord [1]

Answer:

Energy is transformed from potential to kinetic and vice versa

Explanation:

The energy is transformed from mechanical to kinetic energy when the object changes its position with respect to a reference point, where it loses height but increases its speed. When the object is at maximum height with respect to a reference point, it will have its maximum potential energy value. When the object passes through the reference point it will have potential energy equal to zero, but this energy will become kinetic energy.

The most characteristic and real example is that of a pendulum at one end, as can be seen in the attached image.

When the pendulum is located at the top end, as shown in Figure 1, at that point the maximum potential energy will be held. Then the pendulum is released and when it passes through the reference point and its height is zero, with respect to that point, all potential energy will have become kinetic energy in the same way at this point the maximum speed of the pendulum will be set.

Give two example for push or pull to change the state of motion of time two examples​
dolphi86 [110]

Explanation:

An Example of push as a force would be to push on a swing. The force moves the swing in a particular direction and the harder that you push the further the swing will go.

An example of pull as a force would be opening a door. ...

An example of pressure as a force is when you push down on a pile of grapes. is this what you mean

If a set of displacement vectors laid head to tail make a closed polygon, what is the resultant vector?
Papessa [141]

The resultant vector is zero.

Explanation:

When you add displacement vectors using the head to tail method, you follow this procedure:

- Draw the first vector

- Draw the second vector, with its tail starting from the head of the first vector

- Draw the third vector, with its tail starting from the head of the second vector

.. and so on.

The resultant of the all vectors will be the vector connecting the tail of the 1st vector to the head of the last vector.

In this problem, the vectors make a closed polygon: this means that the head of the last vector coincides with the tail of the first vector.

Therefore, this means that the length of the resultant vector is zero.

Four electrons are located at the corners of a square 10.0 nm on a side, with an alpha particle at its midpoint. How much work i
Elis [28]

Four electrons are placed at the corner of a square

So we will first find the electrostatic potential at the center of the square

So here it is given as

V = 4\frac{kQ}{r}

here

r = distance of corner of the square from it center

r = \frac{a}{\sqrt2}

r = \frac{10nm}{\sqrt2} = 7.07 nm

Q = e = -1.6 * 10^{-19} C

now the net potential is given as

V = \frac{4 * 9*10^9 * (-1.6 * 10^{-19})}{7.07 * 10^{-9}}

V = 0.815 V

now potential energy of alpha particle at this position

U_i = qV = 2*1.6 * 10^{-19} * (-0.815) = -2.6 * 10^{-19} J

Now at the mid point of one of the side

Electrostatic potential is given as

V = 2\frac{kQ}{r_1} + 2\frac{kQ}{r_2}

here we know that

r_1 = \frac{a}{2} = 5 nm

r_2 = \sqrt{(a/2)^2 + a^2} = \frac{\sqrt5 a}{2}

r_2 = 11.2 nm

now potential is given as

V = 2\frac{9 * 10^9 * (-1.6 * 10^{-19})}{5 * 10^{-9}} + 2\frac{9*10^9 * (-1.6 * 10^{-19})}{11.2 * 10^{-9}}

V = -0.576 - 0.257 = -0.833 V

now final potential energy is given as

U_f = q*V = 2*1.6 * 10^{-19}* (-0.833) = -2.67 * 10^{-19} J

Now work done in this process is given as

W = U_f - U_i

W = (-0.267 * 10^{-19}) - (-0.26 * 10^{-19}}

W = -7 * 10^{-22} J

Why does the total amount of energy before and after any energy transformations remain the same?
Georgia [21]
The amount of energy before and after any energy transformations remain the same because energy cannot be created or destroyed. From the law conservation of energy; any time energy is transferred between two objects, or converted from one form into another, no energy is created and none is destroyed. The total amount of energy involved in the process remains the same.
