Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation: Among two balls attached to relaxed or compressed spring, balls with higher or lower potential energy should be determined. Also, more or less stable spring should be determined.
Concept introduction: Capacity to perform work is known as energy. Two basic types of energies are kinetic and potential energy.
Potential energy is that type of energy that arises due to relative position of objects with respect to other objects.
Kinetic energy comes into play when body possesses some kind of motion in it.
b)
Interpretation:Among two positive charges near or part from each other, those with higher or lower potential energy should be determined. Also, more or less stable charges should be determined.
Concept introduction: Capacity to perform work is known as energy. Two basic types of energies are kinetic and potential energy.
Potential energy is that type of energy that arises due to relative position of objects with respect to other objects.
