Kinetic energy. thermal energy (a low form of energy ) is a form of kinetic energy as it is produced as a result of motion of particles either if they vibrate at their position or they move along longer paths. Motion produces friction or resistance which leads to excitation and thus the heat is produced. The higher the motion of the particles, the higher would be the thermal energy.
When work is done and a force is transferred an object must move
Answer:
Explanation:
Since the roundabout is rotating with uniform velocity ,
input power = frictional power
frictional power = 2.5 kW
frictional torque x angular velocity = 2.5 kW
frictional torque x .47 = 2.5 kW
frictional torque = 2.5 / .47 kN .m
= 5.32 kN . m
= 5 kN.m
b )
When power is switched off , it will decelerate because of frictional torque .
