Answer:
The driving force for (a) heat transfer is temperature difference. (b) electric current is voltage difference. (c) fluid flow is pressure or hydraulic head difference.
Explanation: (a) The driving force for heat transfer is temperature difference. Heat transfer between two mediums is possible only if the two mediums are at different temperature, the higher the temperature, the higher the heat transfer.
(b) The driving force for electric current is voltage difference. Voltage difference is defined as the potential difference in charge between two points in electrical field. For electric current to occur,the voltage must be high.
(c) The driving force for fluid flow is pressure difference or hydraulic head difference. For fluid to move upward,it requires energy.
If the force and the motion are along the same direction (like it is here) then work is force*distance. The time doesn't come into play until you want the power used. So here
W=9.0*3.0=27J
According to law of conservation of energy,
<span>Energy can neither be constructed nor be destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.
</span>
<span>At the highest point of the pendulum(point b), pendulum is associated with potential energy only and no kinetic energy.
</span><span>Therefore total energy at point b = potential energy = 711 J.... i
</span>
<span>At the bottom most point(point a), pendulum is associated only with kinetic energy and no potential energy.
</span>Therefore total energy at point a = kinetic energy ---- ii
<span>From i and ii,
</span>Kinetic energy = potential energy = 711 J.(Conserving energy)
Hence kinetic energy at the bottom most point is 711 J.
Hope this helps!!
Theories have both an explanatory an a predictive function. True
