Whenever an object is falling, its potential energy
is decreasing and its kinetic energy is increasing.
Olivia's potential energy is decreasing and her kinetic energy
is increasing as she moves toward the right side of the picture,
all the way from W, through X, to the bottom of the arc.
Answer:
0.54m
Explanation:
Step one:
given data
length of seesaw= 3m
mass of man m1= 85kg
weight = mg
W1= 85*10= 850N
mass of daughter m2= 35kg
W2= 35*10= 350N
distance from the center= (1.5-0.2)= 1.3m
Step two:
we know that the sum of clockwise moment equals the anticlockwise moment
let the distance the must sit to balance the system be x
taking moment about the center of the system
350*1.3=850*x
455=850x
divide both sides by 850
x=455/850
x=0.54
Hence the man must sit 0.54m from the right to balance the system
Answer:
19.53 cm
Explanation:
The computation of the height is as follows:
Here we applied the conservation of the energy formula
As we know that
P.E of the block = P.E of the spring
m g h = ( 1 ÷ 2) k x^2
where
m = 0.15
g = 9.81
k = 420
x = 0.037
So now put the values to the above formula
(0.15) (9.81) (h) = 1 ÷2 × 420 × (0.037)^2
1.4715 (h) = 0.28749
h = 0.19537 m
= 19.53 cm
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.
