Your car rolls slowly in a parking lot and bangs into the metal base of a light pole. In terms of safety, is it better for your

collision with the light pole to be elastic, inelastic, or is the safety risk the same for either case? Explain.

Answer:

AN ELASTIC COLLISION IS SAFER

Explanation:

IT'S BECAUSE THE MOVEMENT IS PRESERVED. YEN AN ELASTIC

COLLISION, THE ELASTIC BODY ABSORBS SOME OF THE MOVEMENT.

THIS CAUSES THE CAR TO SLOW DOWN MORE SLOWLY THAN IN AN

INELASTIC COLLISION WHERE IT DECELERATES FASTER.

The force that one surface exerts on another when the two rub against each other is called

1. Friction (Example: when you rub your hands together and you start to feel heat.)

2. Attract each other. (Example: Every object has a gravitational pull of some sort. The larger the object, the stronger the gravitational pull. This is why the sun is able to keep all eight planets in orbit around it.)

otez555 [7]

Answer:

B. positive; negative.

Explanation:

From the viewpoint of Principle of Energy Conservation and Work-Energy Theorem, we notice that gravity represents a conservative force, associated with gravitational potential energy, whereas air resistance is a non-conservative force, associated with dissipated work. Therefore, the work done by gravity is positive and work done by air resistance is negative. Therefore, the correct answer is B.

Which statements best describe energy ? check all that apply
Ainat [17]

<u>The statements that describes energy best as follows: </u>

  • The total amount of energy in the universe remains constant.
  • Energy can be converted from one form to another.  
  • Energy cannot be created or destroyed.  

<u>Explanation :</u>

The Universe is a closed system of energy from where the thermodynamics first law is quoted i.e. the energy in the closed system remains constant.

The energy in the closed system can neither be created nor destroyed in the absence of external energy supply. However, it keeps on changing from one state to another. These are the absolute statements about the total energy existing in the Universe.  

There are many energy forms existing in the Universe such heat, mass, vibrations etc. that consistently change their form from one to another but the total energy amount is always constant until external energy is applied to the system.

According to the quantum theory, even an electron absorbs or emits energy while jumping from one energy band to the other. There is never a case where energy can create or destroy in a closed system.
