Potential energy is like energy contained. It is not energy displayed.
So option (a) clearly represents energy contained.
a. A cat sitting on the fence
If the cat jumps off the wall, the potential or contained energy is displayed as kinetic energy; which is energy in motion.
Answer:
displacement= 30 m towards south, distance= 210m
Explanation:
Distance (scalar quantity) how much ground an object has covered.
Displacement (vector quantity) refers to how far out of place an object is it is the object's overall change in position.
Basically meaning for displacement the directions will be very key
D for Displacement
D= D1+D2
D= 120 (S) + 90 m (N)
Must be in same direction
D= 120 (S) + (-90 m) (S)
D= 30 m (S)
and for distance you are simply just adding how much distance they have covered
so d= d1+d2
d= 90m + 120m
d= 210m
Its resultant is 100 newton
√(60 square+80 square)
The six steps of the scientific are:
1. State the question
2. Conduct research
3. Create a hypothesis
4. Perform the experiment
5. Analyze the data
6. Conclusion
So D. would be the correct answer, even though communicating the results could possibly be a step if it's required.
Answer:
B. 24.2 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the roller coaster, m = 450 kg
height of the roller coaster, h = 30 m
The maximum potential energy of the roller coaster due to its height is given by;
Therefore, the maximum speed of the roller coaster is 24.2 m/s.
