An object slides along a curved track of negligible friction, as shown in the figure. The potential energy U of the object as a

function of the position x is shown in the graph. The object starts at rest at x=0. Which of the following is a correct claim about the motion of the object?
(Would prefer an explanation, but it's not necessary)
A) The kinetic energy of the object is approximately the same at x=2m and x=5m.

B) At x=2m, the object has more potential energy than kinetic energy.

C) The object comes to rest when x=5.5m.

D) The rate of change of the potential energy is a minimum at x=0m.

E) The object achieves its maximum speed at approximately x=3m.

Answer:

E) The object achieves its maximum speed at approximately x=3m.

Explanation:

Since the object is moving in gravitational field

potential energy + kinetic energy = constant = 14 J

At  x = 3 m , potential energy is minimum that is zero

kinetic energy will be maximum .

Kinetic energy = 14 - 0 = 14 J

Hence option ( E ) is the answer.

A drone flies 8 m/s due East with respects to the wind. The wind is blowing 6 m/s due North with respects to the ground. What is
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

v=10 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of a drone is 8 m/s due East with respects to the wind

Speed of a drone 6 m/s due North with respect to the ground.

We need to find the speed of the drone with respect to the ground. Let v is the speed. It is given by the resultant of two speeds.

v=\sqrt{8^2+6^2} \\\\v=10\ m/s

So, the speed of the drone with respect to the ground is 10 m/s.
