Kinetic vs potential energy

Physics
1 answer:
antiseptic1488 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Kinetic energy is the energy obtained from movement while potential energy is the energy in something when it is at a height or has been manipulated in some way; it has work done to it.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is, like I said, energy gained through movement or action. When an object stops moving, it converts into a different type of energy. Energy cannot be destroyed or created. An object with potential energy has a reference. A reference determines how high it is. The higher and heavier an object is, the more potential energy it has.

Hope this helps!

If you climb to the top of Mt. Everest, you will be 8850 m (about 5.50 mi) above sea level.
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

9.773m/s2

Explanation:

Given,

h=8848m

The value of sea level is 9.08m/s2

So,

Let g′ be the acceleration due to the gravity on the Mount Everest.

g′=g(1−h2h)

=9.8(1−640000017696)

=9.8(1−0.00276)

9.8×0.99724

=9.773m/s2

Thus, the acceleration due to gravity on the top of Mount Everest is =9.773m/s2

Hope it helped!!!

A string that is restricted at both ends has a length of 1.50 m. what is the wavelength of the string’s fundamental frequency?
lara31 [8.8K]
Since it is restricted at both ends, λ/2 = length of string

λ/2 = 1.5m
λ = 1.5*2 = 3m

If the answer to your calculation has units of kg.m^2/s^2. What type of quantity could it be?
Juliette [100K]

The quantity can be work or kinetic energy or potential energy. Work is same as the energy.

Work done can be described as energy transferred from and object when a force is applied along a displacement. That is work done is the product of force in the direction of the displacement and the magnitude of the displacement.

Mathematically it can be represented as,

W = F x d

where,

W ⇒ work done

F ⇒ force acting along the displacement

d ⇒ magnitude of displacement

We know,

force = mass x acceleration

∴ the unit of force is kgms⁻²

The unit of work done will be kgms⁻² x m

That is kgm²s⁻²

where m is the unit of displacement that is meter (m)

Hence kgm²s⁻² is the unit for work or energy
