A rock resting on the top of a hill has POTENTIAL energy, while a rock
rolling down a hill has KINETIC energy.
Answer:
Dₓ = -155 sin 23° i + 0 j
Explanation:
The diagram showing the vector has been attached to this response.
As shown in the diagram,
The vector D has an x-component (also called horizontal component) of -D sinθ i. i.e
Dₓ = -D sin θ i [The negative sign shows that D lies in the negative x direction]
Where;
D = magnitude of D = 155m
θ = direction of D = 23°
Therefore;
Dₓ = -155 sin 23° i
Since Dₓ represents the x component, its unit vector, j component has a value of 0.
Therefore, Dₓ can be written in terms of D, θ and the unit vectors i and j as follows;
Dₓ = -155 sin 23° i + 0 j
Answer:900 feet
Explanation:
Given
Velocity 
it take 100 feet to stop
Using Equation of motion

where
v,u=Final and initial velocity
a=acceleration
s=distance moved


When velocity is 60 mph


s=900.08 feet
Answer:The higher up an object is the greater its gravitational potential energy. The larger the distance something falls through the greater the amount of GPE the object loses as it falls. As most of this GPE gets changed into kinetic energy, the higher up the object starts from the faster it will be falling when it hits the ground. So a change in gravitational potential energy depends on the height an object moves through.
Explanation: Lifting an apple up 1 metre is easier work than lifting an apple tree the same height. This is because a tree has more mass, so it needs to be given more gravitational potential energy to reach the same height.
Answer:
<u></u>
- <u>1. The potential energy of the swing is the greatest at the position B.</u>
- <u>2. As the swing moves from point B to point A, the kinetic energy is increasing.</u>
Explanation:
Even though the syntax of the text is not completely clear, likely because it accompanies a drawing that is not included, it results clear that the posittion A is where the seat is at the lowest position, and the position B is upper.
The gravitational <em>potential energy </em>is directly proportional to the height of the objects with respect to some reference altitude. Thus, when the seat is at the position A the swing has the smallest potential energy and when the seat is at the <em>position B the swing has the greatest potential energy.</em>
Regarding the forms of energy, as the swing moves from point B to point A, it is going downward, gaining kinetic energy (speed) at the expense of the potential energy (losing altitude). When the seat passes by the position A, the kinetic energy is maximum and the potential energy is miminum. Then the seat starts to gain altitude again, losing the kinetic energy and gaining potential energy, up to it gets to the other end,
