Question
Chapter 4, Problem 46R
To determine
To explain: the form in which the mechanical energy is converted due to friction.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The sum total of all the energies in a system remains constant.
When mechanical energy decreases, the decrease in energy is overcome by increase in friction so that the total amount of energy in the system remains constant. Friction converts mechanical energy to thermal energy.
Conclusion:
Friction converts mechanical energy into thermal energy.
