The block has maximum kinetic energy at the bottom of the curved incline. Since its radius is 3.0 m, this is also the block's starting height. Find the block's potential energy <em>PE</em> :
<em>PE</em> = <em>m g h</em>
<em>PE</em> = (2.0 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (3.0 m)
<em>PE</em> = 58.8 J
Energy is conserved throughout the block's descent, so that <em>PE</em> at the top of the curve is equal to kinetic energy <em>KE</em> at the bottom. Solve for the velocity <em>v</em> :
<em>PE</em> = <em>KE</em>
58.8 J = 1/2 <em>m v</em> ²
117.6 J = (2.0 kg) <em>v</em> ²
<em>v</em> = √((117.6 J) / (2.0 kg))
<em>v</em> ≈ 7.668 m/s ≈ 7.7 m/s
Theyre all in constant motion
Answer: 1. The law of consevation of energy sates that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It can only be transformed or transfered from one form to another. The law of conservation of energy is found everywhere for example, Water falls from the sky, converting potential energy to kinetic energy.
2. Different forms of energy are related because energy cannot be created or destroyed. they can all be transformed into from one form to another.
