Answer:
An apple hanging at a branch has potential energy due its position. It can be written as PE= mgh where m is the mass of the apple h is the distance between the apple and the ground and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
as the apple falls from the tree it loses its potential energy and gains kinetic energy due to the movement of the apple. Its kinetic energy will be given by KE= 1/2mv² where m is the mass of the apple and v is the speed with which the apple falls.
As the apple falls the height or the distance reduces and PE becomes reduces. But it gains Kinetic energy due to its speed.
But when the apple falls to the ground and comes to rest its kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.
thus the total energy remains the same. it changes from one form to the other but remains unaltered.
Answer:
My answer is 7.2 km
Explanation:
When Stephen goes to the south and then to the east, he is drawing a right triangle, where the 4 km and 6 km sides are the cathetus of a right triangle.
Then we use the Pithagorean theorem to solve this problem. We need to find the hypotenuse.
c² = a² + b²
c² = 4² + 6²
c² = 16 + 36
c² = 52
c = 7.2 km
Answer:0 J
Explanation:
Given
For first step
change in internal Energy of the system is 
Work done on the system 
For second step
change in internal Energy of the system is 
Work done on the system 
Work done on the system is considered as Positive and vice-versa.
and from first law of thermodynamics
for first step
overall heat added
For overall Process Heat added is 0 J
C: the mechanical energy isn't conserved. Some energy was lost to friction.
