Answer: Potential energy into Kinetic energy and heat energy.

Explanation: As every object (book) at height possess potential energy when the book is dropped down its energy is converted to kinetic energy and some amount of it is also dissipated as heat energy due to friction of air.

......

Before the book is thrown, the potential energy has the highest amount, and when the book falls, the energy changes to energy movement, and when the book falls on the ground, the energy changes again to the potential energy.

A police car parked on the side of the highway emits a 1200 Hz sound that bounces off a vehicle farther down the highway and ret
emmasim [6.3K]

f' = frequency observed by the police car after sound reflected from the vehicle and comes back to police car = 1250 Hz

f = frequency emitted by the police car  = 1200 Hz

V = speed of sound = 340 m/s

v = speed of vehicle = ?

frequency observed by the police car is given as

f' = f (V + v)/(V - v)

inserting the values in the above equation

1250 = 1200 (340 + v)/(340 - v)

v = 6.9 m/s

Two blocks are connected by a string over a pulley. The hanging block has a mass of 8-kg and the one on the plane has a mass of
jeka94

Answer:

Let f be force of friction on the blocks kept on inclined plane. T be tension in the string

For motion of block on the inclined plane in upward direction

T - m₁gsin40 - f = m₁a

f = μ m₁gcos40

For motion of hanging  block on  in downward direction

m₂g  - T = m₂ a

Adding to cancel T

m₂g - - m₁gsin40 -  μ m₁gcos40 = a ( m₁+m₂ )

a =   g (m₂ - - m₁sin40 -  μ m₁cos40) / ( m₁+m₂ )

Putting the values

a = 9.8 ( 4.75 - 2.12-1.045) / 7.6

2.04 m s⁻²

M₂ will go down and M₁ will go up with acceleration .
