A 0.50 kilogram ball is held at a height of 20 meters. What is the kinetic energy of the ball when it reaches halfway after bein

Margarita [4]

Potential energy at any point is (M G H). On the way down, only H changes. So halfway down, half of the potential energy remains, and the other half has turned to kinetic energy. Half of the (M G H) it had at the tpp is (0.5 x 9.8 x 10) = 49 joules.

A force of 48 newtons is required to start a 5.0 kg box moving across a horizontal concrete floor. What is the coefficient of st

Soloha48 [4]

1) The coefficient of static friction is 0.980

2) The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.908

Explanation:

In the first situation, the box is still at rest. There are two forces acting on the box:

- The force of push, F, forward

- The force of static friction, $F_f$

Since the box is in equilibrium we have

$F_f = F$ (1)

The value of frictional force changes from zero to a maximum value which is given by:

$F_f = \mu_s mg$ (2)

where

$\mu_s$ is the coefficient of static friction

m is the mass of the box

g is the acceleration of gravity

So, if the force F needed to put the box in motion is 48 N, it means that this is also the maximum value of the force of friction. So, we can combine eq.(1) and (2) to find the coefficient of static friction:

$\mu_s = \frac{F}{mg}$

where:

F = 48 N

m = 5.0 kg

$g=9.8 m/s^2$

Substituting,

$\mu_s = \frac{48}{(5.0)(9.8)}=0.980$

In this second situation, the object is already in motion, so the equation of motion is:

$F-F_f = ma$

where

F = 48 N is the force applied forward

$a = 0.70 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of the box

$F_f = \mu_k mg$ is the force of kinetic friction, where

$\mu_k$ is the coefficient of kinetic friction

We can therefore rearrange the equation to find the coefficient:

$F-\mu_k mg = ma\\\mu_k mg = F-ma\\\mu_k = \frac{F-ma}{mg}=\frac{48-(5.0)(0.70)}{(5.0)(9.8)}=0.908$

We are constantly surrounded by many types of energy transfers and transformations, showing that energy in a system is conserved

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Energy is conserved when some of the chemical energy from burning a candle is transformed into thermal energy, while the rest of the chemical energy is transformed into light energy.

Energy is conserved when thermal energy is transferred from your body to a coat.

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be transformed from one form to another. This can be regarded as the first law of thermodynamics.

In the answer, we see two major kinds of energy transformation around us. The both cases show the conservation of energy in a system.
