Answer:-
From the law conservation of total energy.
When rock just fall it gains kinetic energy but the air resistance change some part of this energy into thermal energy (heat) and at the bottom it simply becomes gravitational energy + thermal energy beacause the position of the rock is also changing.
So option a is correct.
What kind of energy transformation occurs when a rock falls, including air resistance? a. Kinetic energy...
What energy transformation takes place when the skater rolls uphill with friction? A. kinetic energy to potential energy and thermal energy B. Potential energy to kinetic energy and thermal energy C. kinetic energy to thermal energy D. Potential energy to kinetic energy E. kinetic energy to potential energy
A rock is dropped from the top of a building. Assuming air resistance is negligible, will the sum of kinetic energy plus potential energy be conserved? (Kinetic + Potential = Constant?) Why/why not?
1. A piece of rock is thrown into a pile of sand. How is energy conserved in this case? a Kinetic energy at the maximum height is converted to potential energy and when it touches the ground, it changes partially to work and heat. b. Potential energy at the maximum height is converted to translational kinetic energy and when it touches the ground, it is lost. c. Potential energy at the maximum height is converted to translational kinetic energy and...
What does it mean for a quantity to be conserved? Why are conserved physical quantities useful to physicists? Give an example which illustrates the difference between three kinds of energy and the transformation of energy from one kind to another. Your example may include some of the following kinetic, thermal, gravitational potential, and spring potential energy. In your example explain the difference between Energy, Work, and Power.
1. (Spts) A 1-kg rock drops from a vertical cliff hat is 4 m tll anderns nogi air resistance as it falls. At what speed will its gravitational potential energy (relative to the base of the cliff) be equal to its kinetic energy?
6. A 2.00-kg rock is released from rest at a height of 30.0 m. Ignore air resistance and determine (a) the kinetic energy at 30.0 m. (b) the gravitational potential energy at 30.0 m, (c) the total mechanical energy at 30.0 m, (d) the kinetic energy at 0 m, (e) the gravitational potential energy at 0 m, and (f) the total mechanical energy at 0 m. ( 6 pts,) A person in a kayak starts paddling, and it accelerates from...
In an explosion, energy is converted into kinetic energy, But what kind of energy is converted into KE?
Find the initial potential and kinetic energy of a 5kg rock that falls from a height of 300 km above the earth's surface, if its initial speed is 400 m/s. (Do not use the PE = mgh approximation.)
1a) What is the kinetic energy (in J) of a 2610-pound automobile traveling at 62.5 km per hour? b) What energy transformations take place when a moving car brakes and skids to a stop? Select all that apply. Total energy is conserved. The kinetic energy of the car is converted into thermal energy. The brakes and tires are cooler after the car stops then just before the brakes were applied. Total energy is not conserved.
A ball is thrown vertically upward. Neglecting air resistance, which one of the following statements is FALSE. Select one: a. The kinetic energy of the ball decreases while the ball is going up. b. The sum of the kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy of the ball is constant. C. The kinetic energy of the ball increases when the ball is coming down. d. The gravitational potential energy decreases as the ball is going up
