A machine is a device that accepts energy in some available form and utilizes it to do a type of work. Energy, work, or power has to be transferred from one mechanical part to another to run a machine. While the transfer of energy between two machine par…

Kinetic Energy and Work-Energy Theorem

In physics, work is the product of the net force in direction of the displacement and the magnitude of this displacement or it can also be defined as the energy transfer of an object when it is moved for a distance due to the forces acting on it in the d…

Chapter 6, Problem 121P

Problems 121 and 122.A particle is constrained to move along the x-axis. The graph describes the potential energy as a function of position.

Chapter 6, Problem 121P, Problems 121 and 122.A particle is constrained to move along the x-axis. The graph describes the

121. The particle has a total mechanical energy of –100 J. At time t = 0, the particle is located at x = 8.0 cm and is moving to the left. (a)What is the particle’s potential energy at t = 0? What is its kinetic energy at this time? (b) What are the particle’s total, potential, and kinetic energies when it is at x = 2.0 cm? (c) Describe the motion of this particle. Does the particle ever turn around and start moving to the right? If so, where does this happen? At what value or range of values of x is its speed the greatest?

Students have asked these similar questions

A planar double pendulum consists of two point masses \[m_1 = 1.00~\mathrm{kg}, \qquad m_2 = 1.00~\mathrm{kg}\]connected by massless, rigid rods of lengths \[L_1 = 1.00~\mathrm{m}, \qquad L_2 = 1.20~\mathrm{m}.\]The upper rod is hinged to a fixed pivot; gravity acts vertically downward with\[g = 9.81~\mathrm{m\,s^{-2}}.\]Define the generalized coordinates \(\theta_1,\theta_2\) as the angles each rod makes with thedownward vertical (positive anticlockwise, measured in radians unless stated otherwise).At \(t=0\) the system is released from rest with \[\theta_1(0)=120^{\circ}, \qquad\theta_2(0)=-10^{\circ}, \qquad\dot{\theta}_1(0)=\dot{\theta}_2(0)=0 .\]Using the exact nonlinear equations of motion (no small-angle or planar-pendulumapproximations) and assuming the rods never stretch or slip, determine the angle\(\theta_2\) at the instant\[t = 10.0~\mathrm{s}.\]Give the result in degrees, in the interval \((-180^{\circ},180^{\circ}]\).
