In what way does the temperature of water at the bottom of a waterfall differ from the temperature at the top? Explain the reason.
Show that the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy (i.e., total mechanical energy) is always conserved in the case of a freely falling body under gravity (with air resistance neglected) from a height h by finding it when
- The body is at the top.
- the body has fallen a distance x.
- the body has reached the ground.
A ball of mass 0.20 kg is thrown vertically upwards with an initial velocity of 20 m s-1. Calculate the maximum potential energy it gains as it goes up.
A metal ball of mass 2 kg is allowed to fall freely from rest from a height of 5 m above the ground. Taking g = 10 m s−2, calculate:
- the potential energy possessed by the ball when it is initially at rest.
- the kinetic energy of the ball just before it hits the ground?
What are the various forms of energy?
A ball of mass 0.5 kg slows down from a speed of 5 m/s so that of 3 m/s. Calculate the change in kinetic energy of the ball. State your answer giving proper units.
Explain the transformation of energy in the following cases :
(i) A ball thrown upwards.
(ii) A stone dropped from the roof of a building.
What is the meaning of the symbol kWh? What quantity does it represent?
How much energy does a 100 W electric bulb transfer in 1 minute?
A girl is carrying a school bag of 3 kg mass on her back and moves 200 m on a levelled road. The work done against the gravitational force will be (g = 10 m s–2)
