A car jumps off a ramp with a Kinetic energy of 5,000 joules. This same car has a gravitational potential energy of 4,685 joules

at some point when it is falling to the ground, after jumping off the ramp. When the car lands on the ground, the springs of this car’s suspension compress and then come back to normal exerting an elastic potential energy of 4,968 joules.
What is the car’s total mechanical energy (TME)?

Answer:

14,653 J.

Explanation:

We know that,

Total mechanical energy is equal to the sum of all the potential and kinetic energies.

Given,

Kinetic energy when a car jumps off a ramp= 5000 J

Potential energy = 4685 J

Potential energy when the car lands= 4968 J

TME = 5000 + 4685 + 4968

        = 14,653 J

Hence, the car's total mechanical engery is equal to 14,653 J.

The strength of the electric field at a certain distance from a point charge is represented by e. What is the strength of the el
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

At twice the distance, the strength of the field is e/4

Explanation:

F = the strength of an electric field.

F is inversely proportional to the squared distance from the point charge.

mathematically,

F = k(e/d²)

hence, if d is doubled,keeping other forms constant

F = e/4,

Mechanical energy is similar to thermal energy because they both?
katrin [286]

Answer:

Mechanical energy is the ordered movement of the molecules as a single unit. Thermal energy is the random movement of the molecules. Mechanical energy can be 100% converted to thermal energy, but thermal energy cannot be fully converted to mechanical energy.
