Answer:
The forms of energy involved are
1. Kinetic energy
2. Potential energy
Explanation:
The system consists of a ball initially at rest. The ball is pulled down from its equilibrium position (this builds up its potential energy) and then released. The released ball oscillates due to a continuous transition between kinetic and potential energy.
Velocity is about direction traveled in comparison to speed which is just distance with out direction
Answer:
The speed of the two cars after coupling is 0.46 m/s.
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of car 1, m₁ = 15,000 kg
Mass of car 2, m₂ = 50,000 kg
Speed of car 1, u₁ = 2 m/s
Initial speed of car 2, u₂ = 0
Let V is the speed of the two cars after coupling. It is the case of inelastic collision. Applying the conservation of momentum as :


V = 0.46 m/s
So, the speed of the two cars after coupling is 0.46 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
Yes. Think of block sitting on top of a bigger block. If the bottom block moves, it will drag the top block with it. Since the force of friction on the small block and its displacement are in the same direction, the "work" is positive. The static friction is a passive force, It is not a source of energy; it transmits the force placed on the bottom block. (And the "work" done by the friction on the bottom block is exactly the negative of the work done on the top block.)
Answer:
Horizontal distance, R = vo2 sin(2x45)/g
v = 285 km/h = 79.17 m/s
R = 79.172 x 1/1.6
R = 3917 m
R = 3.9 km
