When the object slides across the rough surface some of its potential energy will be lost to friction.

<h3>Conservation of mechanical energy</h3>

The law of conservation of mechanical energy states that the total mechanical energy of an isolated system is always constant.

M.A = P.E + K.E

When the object slides across the rough surface, some of the potential energy of the object will be converted into kinetic energy while the remaining potential energy will be converted into thermal energy due to frictional force of the rough surface.

P.E = K.E + thermal energy

. Determine if approximate cylindrical symmetry holds for the following situations. State why or why not. (a) A 300-cm long copp

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

a) Yes

b) No

Explanation:

In the first case, part a, yes we can say for certainty that cylinderical symmetry holds. Why so? You may ask. This is because from the question, we are told that the length of the rod is 300 cm. And this said length is longer than the distance to the point from the center of the rod, which is 5 cm.

In the second half of the question, I beg to disagree that cylindrical symmetry holds. Again, you may ask why, this is because the length of the rod in this case, is having the same order of magnitude as the distance to the center of the rod. Thus, it is not symmetrical.

The kinetic energy of a 1000-kg roller coaster car that is moving with a speed of 20.0 m/s.

eimsori [14]

E=(mV^2)/2
m=1000kg, V=20m/s
then, E=(1000kg*(20m/s)^2)/2
E=(1000*400)/2 J = 200000J

A mass moves back and forth in simple harmonic motion with amplitude A and period T.

Sever21 [200]

a. 0.5 T

- The amplitude A of a simple harmonic motion is the maximum displacement of the system with respect to the equilibrium position

- The period T is the time the system takes to complete one oscillation

During a full time period T, the mass on the spring oscillates back and forth, returning to its original position. This means that the total distance covered by the mass during a period T is 4 times the amplitude (4A), because the amplitude is just half the distance between the maximum and the minimum position, and during a time period the mass goes from the maximum to the minimum, and then back to the maximum.

So, the time t that the mass takes to move through a distance of 2 A can be found by using the proportion

$1 T : 4 A = t : 2 A$
