Which two types of potentional energies would be types of mechancial energies

Physics
1 answer:
EastWind [94]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Gravitation Potential Energy and Elastic Potential Energy

Explanation:

PE=abbreviation for potential energy

PE is a mechanical energy like KE is. There are two types of PE in high school physics (do not talk about other PE's like chemical PE).

Elastic PE is like the stored energy for example in a pole vault competition, the Elastic PE is stored in the pole before the vaulter goes over the desired height. (Energy stored in ELASTIC object ONLY) (commonly on the 11th grade regents springs are used to represent elastic PE)

Gravitational PE can be calculated through the formula PE=mgh although some people substitute the PE with a U. (ENERGY STORED IN OBJECT'S HEIGHT)

What is the average translational KE of 5 moles of gas molecules at 300 K?
aev [14]

Answer:

What is the average translational kinetic energy of molecules in an ideal gas at 37°C? The average translational energy of a molecule is given by the equipartition theorem as, E = 3kT 2 where k is the Boltzmann constant and T is the absolute temperature.

Explanation:

The average translational energy of a molecule is given by the equipartition theorem as, E = 3kT 2 where k is the Boltzmann constant and T is the absolute temperature.

The half-life of cobalt-60 is 5.26 years. If 50 g are left after 15.8 years, how many
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

400 g

Explanation:

The computation of the number of grams in the original sample is shown below:

Given that

half-life = 5.26 years

total time of decay = 15.8 years

final amount = 50.0 g

Now based on the above information  

number of half-lives past is

=  15.8 ÷ 5.26

= 3 half-lives

Now

3 half-lives = 1 ÷ 8 remains = 50.0 g

So, the number of grams would be

= 50.0 g × 8

= 400 g

The gravitational field strength due to its planet is 5N/kg What does it mean?
Dominik [7]

Answer:

The weight of an object is the force on it caused by the gravity due to the planet. The weight of an object and the gravitational field strength are directly proportional. For a given mass, the greater the gravitational field strength of the planet, the greater its weight.

Weight can be calculated using the equation:

weight = mass × gravitational field strength

This is when:

weight (W) is measured in newtons (N)

mass (m) is measured in kilograms (kg)

gravitational field strength (g) is measured in newtons per kilogram (N/kg)

Explain how your battery works. (You may want to look at the Electric Current lesson) What are some possible materials you could
Lisa [10]

Answer:

A battery is made up of three parts. The Cathode (positive end +) , the Anode (negative end -) and the electrolyte. The electrolyte allows electrical charges to travel between the cathode and anode. This chemical reactions creates the flow of electricity supplying the electrical voltage potential to power a circuit.

Typical materials of a battery are as follows

- Anode most often is made of zinc

- Manganese dioxide acting as Cathode.

- the electrolyte between and inside contains ions
