Answer:
A book on a table before it falls.
A yoyo before it is released.
A raised weight.
Explanation:
These are all examples of potential energy. So I hope you can find something that is comparable from the lab.
The potential energy of an object is defined by the equation: PE = mgh, where m = the mass of the object, g = the gravitational acceleration and h = the object's height above the ground.
Answer:
The answer is A because the equation is KEi+PEi=KEf+PEf
i means initial (before) and f means final (after)
-- If 2,000 newtons of force were applied through a distance of 1,000 meters,
then 2,000,000 newton-meters = 2,000,000 joules of work were done.
-- 45 minutes = (45 x 60) = 2,700 seconds
-- Power = (work) / (time) = (2,000,000 j) / (2,700 s) = <u>740.74 watts</u>
Interestingly, that's almost exactly 1 horsepower. (0.99295... of 746 watts)
