As an object rolls downhill, some of the energy is

When the object is at the top of the hill it has the most potential energy. If it is sitting still, it has no kinetic energy. As the object begins to roll down the hill, it loses potential energy, but gains kinetic energy. The potential energy of the position of the object at the top of the hill is getting converted into kinetic energy. Hope this helped. :)

Well this is kind of a trick question. When the object is still before it rolls downhill it is potential. But as the object is rolling down the hill, it is kinetic energy. So, I believe your answer would be kinetic since it doesn't specify everything that's happening.

Two tugboats are moving a barge. Tugboat A pushes on the barge with a force of 3000n. Tugboat B pulls with a force of 5000 Newto

kenny6666 [7]

The net force on the barge is 8000 N

Explanation:

In order to find the net force on the badge, we have to use the rules of vector addition, since force is a vector quantity.

In this problem, we have two forces:

The force of tugboat A, $F_A = 3000 N$ , acting in a certain direction
The force of tugboat B, $F_B = 5000 N$ , also acting in the same direction

Since the two forces act in the same direction, this means that we can simply add their magnitudes to find the net combined force on the barge. Therefore, we get

$F=F_A+F_B = 3000 + 5000 = 8000 N$

and the direction is the same as the direction of the two forces.

When a hot and cold object are placed in contact, the hot one loses energy. Does this violate energy conservation? Why or why no

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

This does not violate the conservation of energy.

Explanation:

This does not violate the conservation of energy because the hot body gives energy in the form of heat to the colder body, this second absorbs energy. This will be the case until both bodies reach the same temperature, reaching thermal equilibrium and reducing the transfer of thermal energy. In this way the energy was only transferred from one body to another but the total energy of the system (body 1 plus body 2) will be the same as in the beginning, respecting the principle of conservation of energy or also called the first principle of thermodynamics .

The part of physics that studies these processes is in turn called heat transfer or heat transfer or thermal transfer. Heat transfer occurs whenever there is a thermal gradient or when two systems with different temperatures come into contact. The process persists until thermal equilibrium is reached, that is, until temperatures are equalized. When there is a temperature difference between two objects or regions close enough, the heat transfer cannot be stopped, it can only be slowed down.
