We know that there is a relationship between work and mechanical energy change. Whenever work is done upon an object by an external force (or non-conservative force), there will be a change in the total mechanical energy of the object. If only internal forces are doing work then there is no change in the total amount of mechanical energy. The total mechanical energy is said to be conserved. Think of a real-life situation where we make use of this conservation of mechanical energy (where we can neglect external forces for the most part). Describe your example and speak to both the kinetic and potential energy of the motion.

* roller skates and ice skates.

* roller coaster

Explanation:

One of the best examples for this situation is when we are skating, in the initial part we must create work with a force, it compensates to move, after this the external force stops working and we continue movements with kinetic energy, if there are some ramps, we can going up, where the kinetic energy is transformed into potential energy and when going down again it is transformed into kinetic energy. This is true for both roller skates and ice skates.

Another example is the roller coaster, in this case the motor creates work to increase the energy of the car by raising it, when it reaches the top the motor is disconnected, and all the movement is carried out with changes in kinetic and potential energy. In the upper part the energy is almost all potential, it only has the kinetic energy necessary to continue the movement and in the lower part it is all kinetic; At the end of the tour, the brakes are applied that bring about the non-conservative forces that decrease the mechanical energy, transforming it into heat.

Answer from: Quest

the minimum constant speed at which she can catch the train is 2.7 m/s

given:

acceleration = 0.6 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

time = 4.5 s

to find:

velocity = ?

formula used:

from 1st kinematic equation we get,

v = u + at

u = initial speed of train = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the train

a = acceleration of the train

t = time

solution:

from 1st kinematic equation we get,

v = u + at

u = initial speed of train = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the train

a = acceleration of the train

t = time

v = 0 + (0.6 × 4.5)

v = 2.7 m/s

the minimum constant speed at which she can catch the train is 2.7 m/s

Answer from: Quest

see the picture for the vector

the magnitude of the vector by pythagorean theorem

r = √( (-10)^2 + (3)^2 ) = √109

magnitude = √109 units

the direction angle between vector and x-axis is

tan^(-1)(3/10) = 16.699

so the direction is approximately 16.7 degrees north of west
