Answer:

Potential energy refers to the stored up energy within an object, that builds up and can potentially be used to propel that object.

Explanation:

A famous example, would be water behind a dam. The rushing water fills up behind the dam, and since it's being held in one place, it will build up until of course the dam is either moved or lifted, and then all the water will be forced (due to all the energy that was being stored) down the rest of the stream.

I hope the explanation makes sense. If it doesn't, please let me know and I'll try to find another one for you :)

Potential energy is the an objects energy that is currently not being used but can be used. Example: A ball at the top of a hill is full of potential energy, and as soon as it begins rolling that becomes kinetic energy because it is in use. (Hard to explain but I hope this helps.)

A kettle is rated at 1 kW, 220 V. Calculate the working resistance of the kettle.

Anna [14]

Explanation:

Power of electric kettle, P = 1 kW

Voltage, V = 220 V

(a) Electric power is given by the formula as follows :

$P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}$

R is resistance

$R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{(220)^2}{10^3}\\\\R=48.4\ \Omega$

(b) When connected to a 220 V supply, it takes 3 minutes for the water in the kettle to reach boiling point.

Energy supplied is given by :

$E=P\times t$

P is power, $P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}$

$E=\dfrac{V^2}{R}t\\\\E=\dfrac{(220)^2}{48.4}\times 180\\\\E=180000\ J\\\\E=180\ kJ$

A dog walks 12 meters to the east and then 16 meters back to the west for this motion what is the distance moved What is the mag

FinnZ [79.3K]

The distance is 28 meters, and the displacement is -4.

For the distance it would be 12 + 16 = 28.

For the displacement it would be 12 - 16 = -4.

would really appreciate a brainliest! Hope this helped!

A block oscillating up and down on a spring comes to the top of its path, where it is momentarily at rest. At the instant it is

True [87]

Opposite to the direction of the velocity which led it to its current position.

Explanation:

The direction of momentum when a vertically oscillating block comes to the rest momentarily will be opposite to the direction of the velocity that it has just followed to reach reach its current position.

The direction of change in momentum at the bottom will be upwards and at the top will be downwards.

The change in momentum is mathematically defined as:

$\Delta P=m.v_f-m.v_i$
