Using the principles of energy and conservation of energy, determine how the velocity of an object at the bottom of a ramp is related to its initial starting height. 1. If the ball is initially motionless at the top of a ramp of height h, write down expressions for the initial kinetic, potential, and total energy of the ball. 2. What expressions for the kinetic, potential, and total energy of the ball as it reaches the bottom of the ramp. 3. Using the principle of conservation of energy, what expression relates the final velocity of the ball to its initial height on the ramp.
Which of the following statements are true? options: The rest length of a spring is where it applies zero force. The spring constant has units of N/m. Work can be calculated for a force that depends on position. Work is the slope of the force vs. position graph. If we stretch a spring twice as far beyond the rest length, the spring force is 4x larger. If we stretch a spring twice as far beyond the rest length, the potential energy is 4x larger.
