Answer:
B. As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases.
Explanation:
When the temperature of an object increases, the kinetic energy of its particles increases, so the thermal energy of an object increases as its temperature increases.
Answer:
Electric current.
Explanation:
The energy result from electric current resulting from potential differences between terminals which form an Electric circuit. This energy could come from different sources like chemical, wind, light
An electric circuit is one where there is movement of electrons;this electrons acquire charge which is energy. The electrons flow due to a potential difference; you have heard water flows from a higher position to a lower one freely. The highest height is said to be at higher potential and the lower point low potential.
So it's the same with electrons.
The formular for energy on charge is Q= I × t where I is electric current and t is time.
Answer:
Force on the object is 20 N
Explanation:
As we know that work done to raise the book from initial position to final position is known as potential energy stored in it
So here we know that
here we know that
U = 30 J
s = displacement = 1.5 m
so we have
Answer:
I would say that I agree with the one that said that each hill must be lower than the previous one and use the principle of conservation of energy to explain.
Explanation:
Roller coaster are usually designed such that its total energy remains conserved at any point on the track. Now, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time. At certain height on the track, the total energy of the roller coaster is in form of potential energy, which gets converted to kinetic energy as soon as it starts sliding down the hill till get to the hill's endpoint where it has maximum kinetic energy. The cycle of sliding from a high point on the track to a low point on the track means there is potential energy is converted to kinetic energy and kinetic energy then converts back to potential energy and the cycle continues.
However, due to the effect of gravity and frictional force between the track and the coaster, the energy of the coaster is gradually reduces, so it becomes a bit difficult for the coaster to move to the next hill of the same height. It is for this reason that each hill must be lower than the previous one, so that the coaster can overcome the next hill's height with its reduced energy until it loses all its energy and comes to a stop.
