Problem 1: Renatta Gass is out with her friends. Misfortune occurs and Renatta and her friends find themselves getting a work out. They apply a cumulative force of 1080 N to push the car 218 m to the nearest fuel station. Determine the work done on the car. Audio Guided Solution. Show Answer. Problem 2:
Use work and energy principles to calculate a speed or a height or an energy value for a very complex scenario. Some problems involve elastic potential energy. Includes 8 problems.
Use the law of conservation of energy (assume no friction) to fill in the blanks at the various marked positions for a 1000-kg roller coaster car. See Answer A: h = 45.9 m (from 450 000 =1000*9.8*h)
The internal energy is found by subtracting the system's collective kinetic energy from its total energy, the latter of which can be found using the kinetic energies of the individual particles. Clearly, therefore, the total energy of the \(AB\) system in the reference frame given is \(10J\).
The potential energy of world class pole vaulters now routinely exceeds the kinetic energy of world class sprinters. It would appear that vaulters have discovered a way to "violate" the law of conservation of energy.
13 paź 2024 · We know that Newton’s Second Law relates the forces on Katie to her acceleration. If we build a model of the forces on Katie, we can then determine her acceleration. Once we know her acceleration, we can use kinematics to determine how long it takes for her to cover the distance of \(40\text{m}\) .
We will find the energy of the ball when it is at a height \(h\) above the spring, and the energy of the ball when the spring is fully compressed. Then, we will use conservation of mechanical energy to determine the compression of the spring.
