GRAVITATIONAL POTENTIAL ENERGY
Watch the clip showing a man lifting a rock to a height of 2 m above his head. The rock has a mass of 1,5 kg. Take gravitational acceleration to be 9,8 m.s-2.
KINETIC ENERGY
Watch the clip showing a remote-controlled aeroplane of mass 4 kg flying at a speed of 2,42 m.s-1.
What is the kinetic energy of the plane?
Consider the formula for kinetic energy:
Watch what happens to an object's mechanical energy when it is dropped (assuming a closed system, i.e. without friction).
Does the following increase, decrease, or stay the same in an ideal situation as it falls to the ground?
| Draggable item | arrow_right_alt | Corresponding Item |
|---|---|---|
Gravitational potential energy | arrow_right_alt | increases |
Mechanical energy | arrow_right_alt | decreases |
Kinetic energy | arrow_right_alt | remains the same |
If the system is not closed, what most likely would the energy be lost as?
What is the mass of the cat? Round your answer to the nearest whole number and use the correct units.
Match the following values of EK and EP for the cat as it falls towards the ground.
| Draggable item | arrow_right_alt | Corresponding Item |
|---|---|---|
EK = 12 000 J | arrow_right_alt | EP = 20 000 J |
EK = 20 000 J | arrow_right_alt | EP = 18 000 J |
EK = 2 000 J | arrow_right_alt | EP = 8 000 J |
EK = 0 J | arrow_right_alt | EP = 0 J |
