Top of the U ramp: potential energy is the highest, while kinetic energy is the lowest
Bottom of the U ramp(aka the curve part): potential energy is the lowest and the kinetic energy is the highest
THEREFORE, PE and KE have an INVERSE RELATIONSHIP.
Answer:5.7m/s
Explanation:
Mass=1kg
Initial velocity=u=8m/s
height=h=1.6m
Final velocity =v
Acceleration due to gravity=g=9.8m/s^2
v^2=u^2-2xgxh
v^2=8^2-2x9.8x1.6
v^2=8x8-2x9.8x1.6
v^2=64-31.36
v^2=32.64
Take the square root of both sides
√(v^2)=√(32.64)
v=5.7
Speed at the height of 1.6m is 5.7m/s
Answer:
Option ( B ) is correct .
Explanation:
To lift a heavy weight , inclined plane is used . Use of inclined plane , makes the task easier because instead of force mg , force mg sinθ is to be used which is less than mg . Here θ is inclination of inclined plane.
If h be the height by which weight is to be lifted
potential energy acquired by weight = mgh
work done by force mg sinθ = mgsinθ x d where d is displacement required .
mg sinθ x d = mgh ( work done by force = potential energy stored in luggage )
d = h / sinθ
d will be more than h
Hence inclined plane increases the distance to be covered by force applied though it decreases the force itself.
Hence option ( B ) is correct .
Answer:
The cylinder’s total kinetic energy is 1.918 J.
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass = 4.1 kg
Radius = 0.057 m
Speed = 0.79 m/s
We need to calculate the linear kinetic energy
Using formula of linear kinetic energy



We need to calculate the rotational kinetic energy




The total kinetic energy is given by



Hence, The cylinder’s total kinetic energy is 1.918 J.
